A portable computer including, a CPU operable in a maximum performance mode or in a low power consuming mode according to circumstances, supplied power from a fuel cell, the portable computer further including: a primary fuel valve enabling the fuel cell to be supplied fuel from an external source; a signal sensor sensing an external fuel supplying signal from the primary fuel valve; and a controller controlling the CPU to be operated in the maximum performance mode based on the sensed external fuel supplying signal. Thus, the CPU and the peripheral device is operated in the maximum performance mode when the portable computer receives the power from the external fuel tank, and operated in the low power consuming mode when receiving the power from the fuel cartridge in the fuel cell, thereby enabling maximum use time of the fuel cell. Furthermore, the portable computer which can use both of the AC/DC power and the fuel cell as a power source outputs the external power input signal generated when it receives the power from the AC/DC adapter or the fuel from the fuel tank and is operated in the maximum performance mode.

A vehicular engine starting system is provided in which a key cannot be removed from a key hole unless a shift lever is shifted to a parking position, the system including a pivot shaft having a cam surface that abuts against a blocking lever in response to movement of the pivot shaft from a LOCK position to an ACC position. The cam surface is formed into a shape that can move the blocking lever to an engaged position against a spring force of a return spring in response to movement of the pivot shaft from the ACC position toward an ON position. A plunger and the blocking lever are operatively connected so that the plunger is moved toward a retracted position in response to movement of the blocking lever from a disengaged position to the engaged position. Thus, the current consumption and heat generation of the solenoid can be suppressed in engaging the block lever with the pivot shaft in order to prevent the block lever from turning from the ACC position to the LOCK position.

A carburetor start pump circuit, for starting an engine has an auxiliary fuel pump mounted on a relatively standard carburetor body, a start pulse passage extending through the carburetor body to the auxiliary fuel pump, and a fuel circuit having an intake side which extends from a metering chamber of the carburetor body to the auxiliary fuel pump and a discharge side which is interconnected to the intake side and extends from the auxiliary fuel pump to a throttle bore in the air intake of the carburetor body. To prevent the engine from stalling, a restriction jet is placed within the start pulse passage to prevent the auxiliary fuel pump from discharging fuel into the throttling bore when the engine transmits pulses at high frequencies.

A remote start control system may include an engine speed data bus reader at the vehicle for reading the engine speed signal on the vehicle data communications bus, and a remote start controller at the vehicle and connected to a receiver and the engine speed data bus reader for operating the engine starter based upon a remote start transmitter and based upon the engine speed signal. In some embodiments, the engine speed signal may include a digital code, and the engine speed data bus reader reads the digital code and converts the digital code into a pulsed tachometer emulation signal for the remote start controller. In other embodiments, the engine speed data bus reader generates an output level based upon the digital code exceeding at least one threshold, such as an engine started or engine overspeed threshold. The remote start control system is readily interfaced to a vehicle having a data communications bus to thereby be able to operate using an engine speed signal.

The invention relates to a method for starting a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine (1), in particular of a motor vehicle, in the forward direction, wherein the position of a piston (2) in a cylinder (3) of the engine (1) is ascertained, and fuel is injected into a combustion chamber (4) of the particular cylinder (3) whose piston (2) is in a working phase. To make it possible to start the engine reliably without an electric starter, independently of the position of the pistons (2) in the cylinders (3) before the starting process (14), it proposed that the engine (1) is first moved in the reverse direction, by the injection of fuel into a combustion chamber (4) of at least one cylinder (3) whose piston (2) isnullviewed in the forward directionnullin a compression phase, and the fuel compressed in the combustion chamber (4) of the at least one cylinder (3) is ignited, and the rotary motion in the reverse direction comes to a stop before the bottom dead center (UT) of the pistons (2) of the at least one cylinder (3) is reached, and that the engine (1) is then started in the forward direction.

摘要:
An automatic stop and start control system for a multiple-cylinder internal combustion engine mounted on a vehicle is disclosed. The automatic stop and start control system performs a control for automatically stopping and restarting the engine according to operating conditions of the vehicle and the engine. Fuel is provided to at least one of the cylinders of the engine when an engine stop condition for stopping the engine is satisfied. Subsequently, the fuel supply to all of the cylinders of the engine is stopped. The fuel supply to at least one of the cylinders is immediately carried out at the time an engine restart condition for restarting the engine is satisfied.
摘要:
A method and device for controlling the heating of the glow plugs in a diesel engine, wherein the engine temperature is determined, independently of initialization of the engine control system and following a signal for starting the engine, by a sensor communicating with the glow control system. A glow command is generated if the engine temperature is below a predetermined value. Commencement of the heating procedure is automatically determined by the glow control system independently of initialization of the engine control system, and heating of the glow plugs can start prior to completion of initialization of the engine control system. The time required for the completion of initialization of the engine control system can be saved during heating of the glow plugs.
