    摘要: The fuel mixture ratio of an internal combustion engine is adjusted by metering out a fuel quantity in relation to the air flow rate through the induction tube. The air flow rate is measured indirectly by monitoring the engine speed (rpm) with an electrical transducer driving a frequency-voltage converter, thus providing a first voltage, while a throttle plate position transducer generates a second voltage. The two voltages are applied to a logical circuit including parallel diodes which selects the lower of the applied signals and presents the resultant voltage as the primary control signal for fuel metering. Various compensating networks may be added to provide additional smoothing and adaptation to the operating characteristics of a particular engine and state of operation. Various fuel metering devices to be used in conjunction with the control circuit are also described.

    摘要: A fuel supply mechanism for an internal combustion engine includes a fuel-air mixture generator and an air bypass channel for conducting supplementary air to the mixture prior to delivery to the cylinders. The bypass channel has a valve which is coupled to the main throttle valve in the induction manifold. The coupling may be entirely mechanical or electro-mechanical. In addition, a controller which acts on the basis of engine information changes the degree of coupling between the main throttle and the bypass valve to admit more or less supplementary air, depending on the value of engine variables.

    摘要: The fluctuations of the rotational speed of the engine crankshaft are detected by two torsionally coupled inertial discs with fiducial markers. The movement of these markers past an inductive sensor provides a signal which is fed to a logical control circuit that controls the generation of a voltage which is characteristic of the actual crankshaft fluctuations. This actual voltage is amplified and rectified and compared with a set-point voltage generated by a set-point generator. The resulting signal is used to control an integrating circuit which may engage the fuel injection system of the exhaust gas recycling system of the engine to change the fuel-air mixture so as to return the actual voltage value to the set-point value.

    摘要: A fuel metering system of an internal combustion engine is controlled by an analog computer circuit which delivers injection pulses to actuate the fuel injection valves of the engine. The duration of these pulses is directly related to the amount of injected fuel and depends partly on the inherent electrical characteristics of the components of the analog computer circuit. The pulse duration also depends on the instantaneous values of at least two engine parameters, r.p.m. and throttle valve position, i.e., the degree of opening of the air inlet valve. The r.p.m. signal is sensed by an appropriate transducer and triggers a monostable multivibrator in the analog computer circuit while the throttle valve position is sensed by a potentiometer and defines the charging rate of a capacitor. The voltage on the capacitor influences the action of the monostable multivibrator which delivers the fuel injection pulse. A multiplier circuit may be connected between the analog circuit and the injection valves for admitting corrective control signals, e.g., from an exhaust gas sensor or from an engine smoothness sensor.

    摘要: The fuel-air mixture of an engine in a motor vehicle is controlled on the basis of a signal related to the fluctuations in the cyclic variations of the average combustion chamber pressure. This signal is derived indirectly from a sensor which monitors the rotational speed of engine members, e.g. the crankshaft. In order to provide closed-loop control, there is provided a reference value which is adapted continuously to changing engine speed. In addition, a correction of the reference signal is made to account for varying degrees of damping induced by changing inertial masses coupled to the engine, in particular the elements of the transmission connected between the engine and the vehicle. The correction for damping is made on the basis of signals related to the prevailing gear ratio either by direct indication of the gearshift lever position or by measuring the rotational speeds of the input and output shafts of the transmission.

    摘要: A control apparatus for an internal combustion engine performs cyclic modulations of an operational parameter of the engine, for example by periodic leaning out of the fuel-air mixture to some of the engine's cylinders. The resulting changes in angular acceleration of the crankshaft are sensed by an electro-inductive transducer and the elapsed time between successive pulses so generated is measured. Depending on whether the change in acceleration is positive or negative, the circuit generates an appropriate control signal which may be used to steer a final control element which moves the center of modulation, i.e., the operational point of the engine, toward an optimum value of, for example, the fuel-air ratio.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for detecting cylinder malfunction by monitoring the actual rotational speed in an internal combustion engine, e.g. with an inductive transducer. This signal is compared in phase with pulses from a voltage controlled oscillator, the control voltage of which comes from an integrating circuit driven by the phase comparison signal in the manner of a phase-locked loop.The VCO pulses are used to clock a shift register and the actual pulses provide the data input for the shift register. Thus, the relative arrival time of the two pulse trains determines the contents of the shift register. Decoding circuitry is used to interrogate the shift register and to actuate an output device when the contents of the register indicate an unsymmetric periodicity, caused by cylinder malfunction.

    摘要: An internal combustion engine is operated in the lean-running condition where measurable engine roughness occurs. The degree of this engine roughness, which is due to fluctuations in acceleration, is measured and compared with set-point values in a fuel metering control loop. In order to prevent undesirable control characteristics, the effect of positive changes in acceleration is prevented from engaging the final control element by a switching element which interrupts the signal flow to the final control element during positive changes in engine accelerations.

    摘要: The operation of an internal combustion engine in the region of its lean-running limit is controlled on the basis of engine roughness as measured by an inductive crankshaft transducer. Its periodic signal gates the counting in a digital down-counter, from a pre-set number, at a frequency proportional to r.p.m. The content of the down counter is counted up or down in a subsequent up-down counter depending on the value of its own most significant bit which indicates the algebraic sign of the phase comparison between the transducer frequency and the r.p.m.-proportional frequency. Two digital integrating stages eliminate effects due to constant engine acceleration. A decoder supplies a control signal to a final control element for fuel, air or exhaust control.
