摘要:
A variable compression ratio engine. The engine includes a piston disposed in a cylinder bore and constituting a combustion chamber, a variable compression ratio mechanism connected to the piston and causing a top dead center position of the piston to vary, an actuator connected to the variable compression ratio mechanism to actuate the variable compression ratio mechanism, and a controller connected to the actuator to control an engine state and the actuator. The controller performs operations including setting the compression ratio corresponding to a state of the engine, actuating the actuator so that the compression ratio is set, determining whether a state of the engine is either a state allowing actuation of the actuator, or a state limiting actuation of the actuator, and limiting actuation of the actuator in the state limiting actuation of the actuator.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine which varies a compression ratio by changing a top dead center position of a piston, including an engine block, the piston disposed in the engine block, a crank shaft supported by the engine block, and a plurality of links connecting the piston and the crank shaft. A first control shaft and a second control shaft respectively are supported by the engine block, each of which has a main shaft portion rotatably supported by the engine block and an eccentric portion eccentric to the main shaft portion, the eccentric portions of the first control shaft and the second control shaft deviating from axes of the respective main shaft portions in mutually different directions when viewed from an axial direction. A plurality of control links connect any one of the plurality of links connecting the piston and the crank shaft, and the first control shaft and the second control shaft. A driving unit is provided at least one of the first control shaft and the second control shaft, that rotates the control shaft.
摘要:
A variable compression ratio device for an internal combustion engine comprises a control shaft (7) that varies a compression ratio of the internal combustion engine in accordance with a rotational displacement, and a linear actuator (13, 16, 17, 18). A connecting link (12) connects a first point (14) offset from a rotation axis (7a) of the control shaft (7) to an actuator rod (13) of the linear actuator (13, 16, 17, 18). Thus, a bending load acting on the actuator rod (13) is reduced, and controllability of the compression ratio is improved.
摘要:
A multi-link variable compression ratio engine is provided with a crankshaft, a piston, a control shaft, a linkage, a motor and a reduction mechanism. The crankshaft moves the piston within an engine cylinder. The control shaft has an eccentric axle eccentric relative to its center-axis. The linkage operatively connects the piston to the crankshaft and the crankshaft to the eccentric axle of the control shaft. The motor rotates the control shaft so a top-dead-center position of the piston changes to vary compression ratios by changing the positions of the eccentric axle and the linkage. The reduction mechanism couples the motor to the control shaft to transmit a reduced rotation of the motor to the control shaft so a reduction ratio of a rotation angle of the motor to a rotation angle of the control shaft is less at high-compression ratios than at intermediate compression ratios.

摘要:
An engine intake control apparatus for an engine that comprises at least one combustion chamber operatively connected to an intake port and an intake valve associated with each intake port, wherein the intake valve is adapted to open and close the intake port is disclosed herein. The intake control apparatus comprises a variable valve operating mechanism and a controller. The variable valve operating mechanism is configured and arranged to selectively change a valve closing timing and a valve lift amount of the intake valve. The controller is configured and arranged to control the variable valve operating mechanism when the engine is in a low load condition. The valve closing timing is determined such that an actual compression ratio of the engine is reduced relative to the actual compression ratio when the engine is operating in a high load condition. The valve lift amount is smaller when the engine is in the low load condition relative to the valve lift amount when the engine is in the high load condition. A method for controller an engine is also disclosed.

An intake valve control apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes a first variable valve operating mechanism capable of varying an operation angle of an intake valve continuously, a second variable valve operating mechanism capable of varying a maximum lift phase of the intake valve continuously, and a controller that controls an intake air amount mainly by varying the operation angle and the maximum lift phase of the intake valve. The controller is configured to, when one of the first and second variable valve operating mechanisms is at a phase position different from a predetermined start stage phase position at engine start, correct a phase position of the other of the first and second variable valve operating mechanisms in accordance with a present phase position of the one of the first and second variable valve operating mechanisms. An intake valve control method is also provided.
