    摘要: A shaft-like heating member is inserted into and fixed to an oxygen sensing element of a hollowed shaft-like member, together with of a terminal member. A heating portion is located at a portion of the heating member closer to the extreme end thereof. The surface of the heating portion is resiliently pressed on the element inner wall in a side-abutting fashion. In this case, a guide mainly gives rise to the elastic force. With such a side-abutting structure, heat generated in the heating portion is directly transferred to the oxygen sensing element, and heats it. Heat radiated from a portion in the vicinity of its contact position additively heats the oxygen sensing element. Temperature of the oxygen sensor quickly reaches an activation temperature.

    摘要: An apparatus and method using a two-serial space sensor (having first and second internal spaces 2,3) for accurately measuring NOx concentration in gas, e.g., exhausted from an internal combustion engine. Both NOx (nitrogen oxide) and oxygen are forced to be partially dissociated in the first space 2 to an oxygen concentration level of 2×10−7 to 2×10−10 atm by pumping out oxygen from the first space 2. The NOx concentration is determined based on the second current measured in the second space 4 and based on the NO dissociation percentage in the first chamber which is 0.5-50%, or preferably 2-20%. The NOx measurement accuracy is further improved when the above oxygen concentration level is maintained from 2×10−8 to 2×10−9 and the temperature drift of the sensor is maintained within ±5° C. under a sensor temperature range of 700-900° C.

    摘要: Activation treatment for a zirconia oxygen sensor is performed by applying alternately a treating voltage, which can make an oxygen partial pressure at the electrode-zirconia interface of a sensor equal to or higher than a critical oxygen partial pressure value (10.sup.-34 atm) not to cause blackening, between a pair of electrodes of the sensor at temperatures of 500.degree. to 800.degree. C. As a result, the treatment current flowing through the sensor can always be held below the critical level, whereby the sensor can be activated without causing blackening and other physical structural changes to occur in the zirconia sensing element. If the sensor is to be used in an A/F ratio control or the like on an internal combustion engine, it can be rendered active at all times by the activation treatment during or before or after the control.

    摘要: The invention provides a method for accurately and precisely detecting deterioration of a catalyst and measuring a conversion efficiency of a catalyst for HC/CO/NOx by using an oxygen sensor and an air/fuel ratio sensor disposed on the upstream and downstream sides of the catalyst, respectively. The catalyst is determined to be deteriorating when an output amplitude of the air/fuel ratio sensor becomes greater than a predetermined value. The conversion efficiency of the catalyst is determined based on a predetermined relationship between the output amplitude and the mean converted rate of HC/CO/NOx.
