    摘要: A method for detecting the oxygen concentration of a gas to be measured is disclosed using the limiting current type oxygen sensor. The method is characterized in that the relationship of an inclined straight line between the voltages applied to the oxygen sensor and the currents outputted therefrom is determined in such a manner that the inclined straight line may pass through the flat portions of the limiting current in the voltage-current characteristics curves at the different oxygen concentrations. The relationship between the outputted currents and the oxygen concentrations at the flat portion is such that when a given magnitude of voltage is applied to the oxygen sensor to cause it to output a current, a voltage which corresponds to this current at the inclined straight line is determined. The voltage thus determined is applied to the oxygen sensor to cause it to output a current. The oxygen concentration is determined from the current thus outputted with reference to the outputted current-oxygen concentration conversion straight line. There is also disclosed a method for controlling the air-to-fuel ratio of a gas from an engine using the above voltage-current characteristic curves, inclined straight line and outputted current-oxygen concentration.

    摘要: An air-fuel ratio detector and an air-fuel ratio measuring method for detecting an oxygen density in an exhaust gas emitted from the internal combustion engine of an automobile. The air-fuel ratio detector has a tubular body and a pair of partition members dividing the tubular body into a closed-end section and an open-end section. At least one of the partition members comprises a solid electrolyte permeable to oxygen ions. A pair of electrodes is mounted on opposite surfaces of the solid electrolyte and connected to a DC power supply, thus constituting an oxygen pump. Another pair of electrodes is mounted on one of the partition members and connected to a DC power supply, thus constituting a limited-current oxygen sensor. Oxygen is introduced into a space between the partition members at all times by the oxygen pump to maintain the gas, which has been supplied through a gas dispersion member into the space, lean.
