摘要:
The invention relates to a control system for feedback control of the air/fuel ratio in an internal combustion engine by using a solid electrolyte oxygen sensor to sense oxygen in the exhaust gas. The oxygen sensor is of the type having an oxygen concentration cell and an oxygen ion pump cell to which a pumping current is supplied to vary the partial pressure of oxygen in the exhaust gas admitted in a measurement space in the sensor. The pumping current is controlled so as to nullify a difference between the output voltage of the oxygen concentration cell and a target voltage. A signal derived from the controlled pumping current is used as an air/fuel ratio signal on the premise that a definite correlation exists between the magnitude of the pumping current and the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas. To commence feedback control of the air/fuel ratio soon after starting the engine and after establishment of the definite correlation without unnecessary delay, the control system includes discrimination means for forming a judgment that the expected definite correlation has been established if the output voltage of the oxygen concentration cell surely falls within a predetermined tolerance range containing the target voltage. When such a judgment is formed the feedback control is immediately commenced.

An air-fuel ratio control system for controlling the air-fuel ratio of air-fuel mixture to be inducted into an automotive engine in order to accomplish feedback control of the air-fuel ratio into a stoichiometric level of feedforward control of the air-fuel ratio into a lean level. The air-fuel ratio control system is comprised of a control unit which is electrically connected to an oxygen sensor for detecting the air-fuel ratio and to a variety of sensors for detecting engine operating condition. The control unit is adapted to calculate an air-fuel ratio correction coefficient in accordance with the detected air-fuel ratio. The feedback control of the air-fuel ratio is accomplished in accordance with the air-fuel ratio correction coefficient. The control unit is further adapted to form a plurality of learning areas defined respectively by engine operating conditions. Learning is made in each learning area. At least a part of each learning area is under the feedback control. The control unit is adapted to further calculate a learning coefficient for the learning area corresponding to the detected engine operating condition, in accordance with the air-fuel ratio correction coefficient under the feedback control. The learning coefficient is memorized in the above-mentioned at least a part of each learning area. The feedforward control of the air-fuel ratio is accomplished in accordance with the learning coefficient in the learning area corresponding to the detected engine operating condition, thereby improving the precision of control in the feedforward control of the air-fuel ratio.

A balancer device installed to an in-line engine comprises a balance shaft which includes first and second journals at which the balance shaft is supported through first and second bearings. The first bearing is disposed near the front side of the engine and set in a retainer for rotatably fixing the balance shaft. The second bearing is disposed near a generally center portion in the axial direction of the crankshaft and secured to a cylinder block. A pair of unbalance portions are disposed near the second journal. The diameter of the first journal is formed smaller than that of the second journal to suppress the friction loss of the first journal.
