Abstract

PURPOSE:To accurately estimate a cooling water temperature for fail safe by detecting an operation oil temperature of a torque converter at the starting of an engine while utilizing it as a cooling water temperature of starting for fail safe, and computing the cooling water temperature for fail safe even after starting according to the passage of time. CONSTITUTION:An operation oil temperature signal of a torque converter is input to an engine side control unit 13 through a transmission side control unit 14 in order to estimate a cooling water temperature when an abnormality occurs at an engine cooling water temperature detecting circuit. The detected operation oil temperature is regarded as an initial value of cooling water for fail safe when a starter switch is set ON. The initial value is multiplied by a time passing from the setting OFF of the starter switch, and the cooling water temperature for fail safe after starting is computed. The cooling water temperature for fail safe is output instead of the cooling water temperature signal for a normal time, and is utilized for computation of spark-advance control at the time of increase of fuel of ignition.

With this structure, as shown in Fig. 4, when the torque converter hydraulic oil temperature is 20°C when the engine is started, the cooling water temperature for the 72-Ruse 7 will change as shown by the solid line in Fig. 4. The initial value is 20°C, and it rises to 80°C after 345 seconds, and as the hydraulic oil temperature decreases to 0°C and -30°C, the fail-safe cooling water temperature changes to its initial value as shown by the broken line. Equally lower and 80°
It takes longer to rise to C. Also, the hydraulic oil temperature is 2
When it is higher than 0°C, the water temperature for 7Erse7 increases its initial value to the same extent, and the time it takes to reach 80°C becomes shorter.

Therefore, when a detection circuit such as a cooling water temperature sensor fails,
The hydraulic oil temperature of the automatic transmission 12 is detected at the time of starting the Ennon and used as the Ennon cooling water temperature for fail-safe purposes at the time of startup, and after starting, the water temperature calculated over time is used as the engine cooling water temperature for the 72-Ruse 7. By using this, it is possible to increase the amount of fuel according to the ennon cooling water temperature from a cold start to the time of warm-up, and to accurately control the advance of the α flame timing, so that there is no shortage of fuel increase during cold times. This prevents impairing drivability due to the engine 11 being sufficiently warmed up, and also prevents fuel consumption from worsening due to an excessive amount of fuel being supplied when the engine 11 is restarted after it has been sufficiently warmed up.

Since the fail-safe cooling water temperature is calculated based on the temperature, it is possible to accurately increase the amount of fuel and control the advance of the ignition timing from the cold start to the warm-up period. Warm-up performance can be improved.
