摘要:
In a control system for controlling motor vehicles in such a manner that the drive force of the vehicle is determined by the accelerator pedal stroke and the vehicle speed, the fuel consumption is minimized by appropriately selecting the gear ratio of the power transmission system under each current operating condition. In particular, the present invention accounts for the slip ratio of the lock-up clutch as well as the transmission efficiency of the torque converter by noting the fact that the lock-up clutch operates under semi-tight conditions as well as under tight and loose conditions.

A control system for an automatic transmission of an internal combustion engine installed on an automotive vehicle measures a duration over which the automatic transmission continues to be in a speed position. Downshift of the speed position of the transmission to a lower speed position is inhibited if the measured duration does not exceed a predetermined time period, when it is determined that the automotive vehicle is in a predetermined decelerating condition.

An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine has a catalytic converter arranged in an exhaust passage. A maximum oxygen storage amount indicative of the maximum amount of oxygen that can be stored in the catalytic converter is calculated. The air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine is forcibly oscillated at a predetermined frequency and a predetermined amplitude. At least one of the predetermined frequency and the predetermined amplitude is changed at a predetermined rate of change. A predetermined rate of change of the at least one of the predetermined frequency and the predetermined amplitude is set in dependence on the maximum oxygen storage amount to thereby secure the maximum purification rate of the catalytic converter.

A target drive shaft torque is calculated from an accelerator pedal opening degree and a vehicle speed. During acceleration of the vehicle wherein target device shaft torque is not negative, a target engine torque for generating target drive shaft torque is calculated, and a target throttle opening degree for providing target engine torque is determined. On the other hand, during deceleration of the vehicle wherein target drive shaft torque is negative, a target throttle opening degree is determined from accelerator pedal opening degree at which the drive shaft torque is zero and the throttle opening degree at which the engine torque is zero. This target throttle opening degree is in a proportional relation to the accelerator pedal opening degree and thus when accelerator pedal opening degree target throttle opening degree.

A fuel supply amount control system for an internal combustion engine having exhaust gas recirculation passage extending between the exhaust passage and the intake passage, and an exhaust gas recirculation valve arranged across the exhaust gas recirculation passage, for recirculating part of exhaust gases emitted from the engine to the intake passage, has an ECU which detects an actual valve lift amount of the exhaust gas recirculation valve, determines a desired valve lift amount of the exhaust gas recirculation valve, based on operating conditions of the engine, and controls the exhaust gas recirculation valve, based on determined the desired valve lift amount and the detected actual valve lift amount, when the engine is in a predetermined operating region where conditions for executing exhaust gas recirculation control are satisfied. A basic fuel supply amount is calculated based on operating conditions of the engine, and a correction coefficient for correcting the basic fuel supply amount, is set based on the actual valve lift amount and the desired valve lift amount, when the engine is in the predetermined operating region. The basic fuel amount is corrected based on the correction coefficient.

A fuel injection amount control system for an internal combustion engine includes an ECU which calculates a desired amount of fuel to be supplied to each combustion chamber in response to operating conditions of the engine, and calculates values of parameters indicative of fuel adherence characteristics of the interior of the intake passage in response to operating conditions of the engine. The ECU further calculates a first fuel amount which is directly drawn into the combustion chamber from a fuel amount injected by the fuel injection valve, and a second amount of fuel which is carried off the wall surface of the intake passage due to evaporation and drawn into the combustion chamber, based upon the values of the parameters. The ECU calculates an injection amount of fuel to be injected, by correcting the desired fuel amount, based upon the first and second fuel amounts. When the engine is in a predetermined operating condition in which convergence of the fuel injection amount calculated by the ECU to the desired fuel amount can be unstable, the value of at least one of the parameters such that the fuel injection amount stably converges to the desired fuel amount.

A fuel metering control system for an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders. The system includes an air/fuel ratio sensor and engine operating condition detecting device for detecting engine operating conditions at least including engine speed and engine load. The basic quantity of fuel injection is determined by retrieving mapped data predetermined based on an effective opening area of a throttle valve, according to the engine speed and engine load. An adaptive controller is provided to calculate a feedback correction coefficient to correct the quantity of basic fuel injection such that the detected air/fuel ratio is brought to a desired value. The output quantity of fuel injection is further corrected by fuel adhered on an intake manifold wall.
