A control device of an internal combustion engine according to the present invention executes air-fuel ratio control based on an output of an air-fuel ratio sensor provided at an upstream side of a catalyst, with correction based on an output of an oxygen sensor at a downstream side of the catalyst. When it is determined that a degree of an output tendency in a predetermined lean region is not less than a predetermined lean degree, and that a degree of an output tendency in a predetermined rich region is less than a predetermined rich degree based on lean tendency and rich tendency values representing output tendencies of the oxygen sensor, a limit is set to the correction in a direction to more suppress enriching of an air-fuel ratio as a degree is larger in which the output of the oxygen sensor is shifted to a lean side.

The invention provides an inter-cylinder air/fuel ratio imbalance determination apparatus and method. The determination apparatus includes a “limiting current type air/fuel ratio sensor”, and acquires a pre-correction index quantity that is greater the greater the degree of non-uniformity of the cylinder-by-cylinder air/fuel ratios, on the basis of a time differential value of the output value of the air/fuel ratio sensor. The determination apparatus obtains as the correction-purpose output value an average value of the output value obtained during a fuel-cut operation. The correction-purpose output value is greater the higher the responsiveness of the air/fuel ratio sensor. The determination apparatus acquires an air/fuel ratio imbalance index value by correcting the pre-correction index quantity so that the pre-correction index quantity is smaller the greater the correction-purpose output value. It is determined that an inter-cylinder air/fuel ratio imbalance state has occurred, when the air/fuel ratio imbalance index value is greater than or equal to an imbalance determination threshold value.

An inter-cylinder air-fuel ratio variation abnormality detection apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus determines imbalance of an air-fuel ratio among the cylinders based on a difference between index values correlated with crank angular velocities detected in a set of opposite cylinders belonging to different banks and having crank angles different from one another by 360°; and carries out an air-fuel ratio feedback process for controlling an amount of injected fuel for each of the banks, wherein the apparatus comprises a correction unit correcting, before determining the air-fuel ratio imbalance, the difference between the index values in a direction of combustion improvement for opposite cylinders that are opposite to cylinders belonging to a bank identical to a bank of a cylinder with the most deviating index value from a standard value among all the cylinders and being other than the cylinder with the most deviating index value.

摘要:
A fuel injection amount control apparatus includes an air-fuel ratio sensor which is disposed between an exhaust gas merging portion HK and an upstream catalyst. The control apparatus performs a feedback correction on an amount of fuel to be injected by the fuel injection valve in such a manner that an air-fuel ratio represented by an output value of an upstream air-fuel ratio sensor becomes equal to a target air-fuel ratio which is set at stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. The control apparatus obtains an air-fuel ratio imbalance indicating value, which becomes larger as a difference in air-fuel ratio of each of the mixtures supplied to each of the combustion chambers among the cylinders becomes larger, and performs an increasing correction to the amount of fuel to be injected by the injection valve in such a manner that an air-fuel ratio becomes a richer air-fuel ratio than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio as the obtained air-fuel ratio imbalance indicating value becomes larger.
