Title: Determining working stroke in four stroke IC engine - using crank angle and cylinder pressure sensors for signalling monitor unit and referencing engine controller
Inventor: DAMSON ECKART
IPC: F02B77/08
Filed: 1991-05-07
Abstract: Apparatus for ascertaining the operating strokes of the cylinders of a four-stroke engine (10) has:     - a crankshaft angle transducer (14); - sensors (S1-6) on cylinders (Z1-6) for outputting respective signals indicative of cylinder pressure; and - an operating stroke detection device (11) which detects and stores the signals from the sensors (S1-6) as soon as the transducer (14) supplies crankshaft angle signals and identifies that cylinder for which the sensor signal indicates passage through a pressure maximum which is above a threshold level (indicating that the cylinder contains compressed gas), judges that the identified cylinder is in its expansion stroke, and, corresponding to the construction of the engine, associates a respective operating stroke (induction, compression, exhaust) with the other cylinders.   Ignition is then initially controlled by calculating the crankshaft angle from the number of angle increments between the increment at the pressure maximum and the actual increment, the angular range per increment, the number of the cylinder with the pressure maximum, and engine construction data. The cylinder operating strokes are thus identified independently of a signal which indicates the absolute crankshaft angle (e.g. once per revolution), which is of value during start-up. <IMAGE>
