Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To supress occurrence of a surge or a misfire in an internal combustion engine by properly-controlling required fuel injection quantity for a fuel injection valve. SOLUTION: Fuel injection valves 6 are set according to the maximum value of required fuel injection quantity, and when the required fuel injection quantity is small, the actual fuel injection quantity becomes unstable. Therefore, the minimum value of the required fuel injection quantity which can compensate for the required fuel injection quantity corresponding to an operating condition determined by an accelerator opening Ap from the accelerator opening sensor 30 of the internal combustion engine 1 and an engine rotational frequency NE from a crank angle sensor 29, is set according to fuel pressure PR from a fuel pressure sensor 27. It is thus possible to improve the injection precision of the fuel injection valves 6 for the required fuel injection quantity, generate air-fuel mixture well ignitable in the vicinity of ignition plugs 5, and suppress occurrence of a surge or a misfire of the internal combustion engine 1.

The fuel injection amount per unit time by the fuel injection valve is set according to the maximum value of the fuel injection amount required corresponding to the operating state of the internal combustion engine. In general, when the required fuel injection amount is small, the actual fuel injection amount is not proportional to the injection period, and the linearity tends to deteriorate.

If the internal combustion engine is of the direct injection type,
The fuel injection start timing when injecting fuel directly into the cylinder is
Naturally, the period during which the fuel can be injected is shorter than that of a conventional non-injection type internal combustion engine because it is after the compression stroke. For this reason, the required fuel injection amount (hereinafter, referred to as “required fuel injection amount”) is large, as in the case of a high load. Needs to be increased.

In a system including such a fuel injection valve,
If the required fuel injection amount is small, such as at the time of low load, the linearity deteriorates as described above. The linearity also varies depending on the fuel pressure (hereinafter, referred to as "fuel pressure"). Therefore, if the required fuel injection amount for the internal combustion engine is small, such as when the vehicle is decelerating or during idle operation, the actual fuel injection amount becomes unstable, causing surges or misfires, which are torque fluctuations of the internal combustion engine. There was a problem that occurs.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a fuel injection control apparatus for an internal combustion engine, which is capable of compensating a required fuel injection amount of a fuel injection valve corresponding to a predetermined operating state of the internal combustion engine. The minimum value of the injection amount is set according to the fuel pressure by the pressure adjusting unit, and the injection amount control unit controls the appropriate fuel injection amount by the opening period of the fuel injection valve.

In the fuel injection control device for an internal combustion engine according to the present invention, since the internal combustion engine is a direct injection gasoline engine, it is necessary to inject a large amount of fuel within a short fuel injection possible period. The fuel injection valve which can increase is adopted. Then, when injecting a small amount of fuel, linearity is likely to be deteriorated. Therefore, the required fuel injection amount is required to be reduced to the minimum value of the required fuel injection amount according to the fuel pressure, the guard processing by the invalid injection period or the required valve opening period In particular, guard processing based on the minimum value of the valve opening period or the invalid injection period according to the fuel pressure is particularly effective.

Next, the process proceeds to step S105, in which the required fuel injection amount Qall calculated in step S102 is reduced to the minimum value Qmin of the required fuel injection amount calculated in step S104.
It is determined whether it is less than. When the determination condition of step S105 is satisfied, that is, when Qall <Qmin, the process proceeds to step S106, where Qall = Qmin, and a guard process is performed using the minimum value Qmin of the required fuel injection amount with respect to the required fuel injection amount Qall at this time. Then, this routine ends. Thus, the required fuel injection amount Qall corresponding to the predetermined operating state of the internal combustion engine 1 is less than the minimum value Qmin of the required fuel injection amount that can be compensated by the fuel injection valve 6 set according to the fuel pressure PR.

As described above, when the internal combustion engine is of the direct injection type, the fuel injection valve 6 capable of increasing the fuel injection amount per unit time is used because a large amount of fuel needs to be injected within a short fuel injection possible period. Then, when injecting a small amount of fuel, the linearity is likely to deteriorate, so that the guard processing by the minimum value Qmin of the required fuel injection amount according to the fuel pressure PR with respect to the required fuel injection amount Qall is particularly effective. As a result, the injection accuracy of the fuel injection valve 6 with respect to the required fuel injection amount Qall is improved, an air-fuel mixture with good ignition can be generated near the ignition plug 5, and the occurrence of surge and misfire of the internal combustion engine 1 can be suppressed. .

Here, in the above embodiment, the minimum value Qmin of the required fuel injection amount is set according to the fuel pressure PR. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Since the injection amount is correlated with the valve opening period of the fuel injection valve 6, even if the minimum value of the valve opening period of the fuel injection valve 6 is set according to the fuel pressure PR or the invalid injection period is set according to the fuel pressure PR. Good.

Such a fuel injection control device for an internal combustion engine sets the minimum value of the valve opening period required for the fuel injection valve 6 in accordance with the predetermined operating state of the internal combustion engine 1 in accordance with the fuel pressure PR. It is. Further, an invalid injection period required for the fuel injection valve 6 in accordance with a predetermined operating state of the internal combustion engine 1 is set according to the fuel pressure PR. That is, since the minimum value of the valve opening period of the fuel injection valve 6 and the invalid injection period which ultimately determine the required fuel injection amount Qall are set according to the fuel pressure PR, the fuel injection valve 6 with respect to the required fuel injection amount Qall The injection accuracy is improved, and a mixture with good ignition can be generated in the vicinity of the ignition plug 5, so that the occurrence of surge or misfire of the internal combustion engine 1 can be suppressed.
