Patent EP-1568871-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YONEZAWA KOICHI
IPC: F02M69/46
Filed: 2005-02-23
Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a direct injector
for injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber of the
engine, an intake passage injector for injecting fuel into an
intake passage of the engine, and a vaporized fuel processing
unit for purging purge gas containing a vaporized fuel into
the intake passage. A fuel injection control apparatus
includes a detecting section and an injection control section.
The detecting section detects the amount of the vaporized fuel
in the purge gas. The injection control section changes a
fuel injection mode of at least one of the direct injector and
the intake passage injector depending on the detected amount
of the vaporized fuel. As a result, hampering of engine
combustion due to purge gas is suppressed.
