    Abstract: An internal combustion engine control device includes: a temperature acquisition unit configured to acquire the temperature of an internal combustion engine at the time when it is requested to start the internal combustion engine; a motoring execution unit configured to execute motoring of the internal combustion engine using the motor when it is requested to start the internal combustion engine; and an in-cylinder pressure control unit configured to control the in-cylinder pressure of the internal combustion engine during the motoring based on the temperature of the internal combustion engine. The in-cylinder pressure control unit is configured to execute in-cylinder pressure increase control, in which the in-cylinder pressure is increased when the temperature of the internal combustion engine is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold temperature compared to when the temperature of the internal combustion engine is higher than the threshold temperature, since the motoring is started.

    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes an internal combustion engine and a motor generator, wherein the internal combustion engine includes a variable compression ratio mechanism structured to vary in mechanical compression ratio depending on variation in position of a compression ratio control member structured to move due to driving of an electric actuator. A control method for the hybrid vehicle includes: measuring a state of charge of a battery connected to the motor generator; and in response to regenerative operation of the motor generator in a state that the state of charge of the battery is equal to or higher than a predetermined level, consuming generated electric power by driving the electric actuator of the variable compression ratio mechanism.

    Abstract: A variable compression ratio internal combustion engine is provided with a variable compression ratio mechanism in which a mechanical compression ratio of the internal combustion engine changes in accordance with a rotational position of a control shaft, a low compression ratio side stopper, a high compression ratio side stopper, a sensor for detecting a rotational position of a drive shaft of an actuator, and an arm press-fitted onto the drive shaft. Relative rotation between the arm and the drive shaft occurs when a torque exceeding an upper-limit torque has been applied. The drive shaft or the control shaft is caused to move to restriction positions restricted by the respective stoppers, and then a diagnosis on the presence or absence of the relative rotation is executed, based on the detected values at the respective restriction positions.
