摘要:
A system and method for controlling an internal combustion engine include anticipating vehicle launch in response to vehicle position relative to a traffic stream and controlling automatic restart and shut down in response to an anticipated vehicle launch to prevent an automatic engine shut down or to initiate an automatic engine restart. Embodiments include determining vehicle position and traffic position using GPS coordinates. Automatic restart may be initiated in response to movement of a forward vehicle away from the vehicle or in response to a signal from a traffic control device, for example. Automatic shutdown may be inhibited in response to movement of a forward vehicle in cross traffic, in response to a turn indicator being active, or in response to wheel angle, for example.

An automatic engine control apparatus installed in a vehicle causes an engine of the vehicle to stop automatically when a predetermined stop condition is satisfied, and after the automatic stop of the engine, causes the engine to restart automatically when a predetermined restarting condition is satisfied. The apparatus includes an electronic control unit configured to inhibit or permit, while the vehicle is stopped, a second automatic stop of the engine in response to the predetermined stop condition being satisfied, depending on whether the predetermined restarting condition satisfied most recently to have caused the engine to restart automatically was a first restarting condition or a second restarting condition different from the first restarting condition. The first restarting condition represents an intention of a driver of the vehicle to start moving the vehicle.

A method of inhibiting an automatic engine stop in an automotive system is disclosed. The automotive system includes a controller for automatically stopping and starting an internal combustion engine, and an electric steering system. An automatic engine stop is inhibited if a supply current (Isuppl) for the electric steering system or if a change of the steering angle is detected during a steering maneuver.

An engine of a stop/start vehicle, after the engine has been automatically stopped, may be commanded to automatically restart in response to detecting that the vehicle is in a turn lane based on traffic data in a vicinity of the vehicle such that the engine is automatically restarted before a brake pedal is released and a steering wheel is turned.

A vehicle control device includes an engine that is a power source of a vehicle, an electrical storage device, a starting device connected to the electrical storage device and configured to consume electrical power to start the engine, and a power steering device connected to the electrical storage device and configured to consume electrical power to generate an assist torque, wherein an engine stop control of causing the engine to be in a stopped state is executable during travelling of the vehicle, and the engine stop control is prohibited in at least one of time of turning of the vehicle, time of steering of the vehicle during travelling, and time of generating an assist torque during travelling.

Clutch operation signal issued in operational association with depression of a clutch pedal are taken as answer-back signals into an electronic control unit (ECU), a starter start command signal is issued in response to one of these answer-back signals. Additionally, a clutch upper switch and a clutch lower switch, which constitute a clutch sensor and are connected in series to each other, are inserted into a starter relay driving system, so that start due to mistaken operation and the like of ECU can be avoided.
摘要:
A vehicle control apparatus includes an idling stop control apparatus configured to operate in a situation where a vehicle speed is less than or equal to a predetermined vehicle speed to stop or restart an engine when a predetermined parameter related to steering meets a predetermined condition and a lane keeping assist control apparatus configured to operate in the situation where the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the predetermined vehicle speed to generate a steering force with an actuator according to a detection result of a lane boundary sign, etc. The predetermined condition is set such that the engine is easier to be stopped or more difficult to be restarted in a case where the lane keeping assist control apparatus is in a predetermined operation state than the engine is in a case where the lane keeping assist control apparatus is in another state.

A method of operating a hybrid vehicle includes disengaging, i.e., turning off, an internal combustion engine when a brake pedal is disposed in a released position, i.e., non-depressed position, an accelerator pedal is disposed in a released position, i.e., non-depressed position, and a forward path of the hybrid vehicle is blocked, thereby conserving fuel. The method includes engaging, i.e., starting, the internal combustion engine when the brake pedal is disposed in the released position, the accelerator pedal is disposed in the released position, and the forward path of the hybrid vehicle is clear, thereby allowing for a quick launch of the vehicle.
摘要:
When a vehicle speed is decreased to a first deceleration threshold value which is greater than zero, an idle reduction controller executes a first engine-shut-down to automatically shut down an engine. In a monitoring period from when the vehicle speed falls below a second deceleration threshold value which is greater than the first deceleration threshold value until when the vehicle speed becomes the first deceleration threshold value, when a steering operation is conducted by a driver, the first engine-shut-down is prohibited. Then, when the vehicle speed exceeds the second deceleration threshold value, a prohibition of the first engine-shut-down is canceled.
摘要:
An automatic stop/start controller for an engine which automatically stops and starts the engine without operation of an ignition key. In automatically stopping the engine without operation of the ignition key, a control means prevents an automatic stop of the engine if a direction indicator of the vehicle is activated. If the direction indicator is activated after the engine is automatically stopped, the control means immediately automatically starts the engine without operation of the ignition key. The control means also prevents an automatic stop of the engine unless the distance traveled by a vehicle, after the engine has automatically started, is greater than a predetermined automatic stop prohibit distance.
