    摘要: Provided are a control device for an internal combustion engine, wherein the internal combustion engine is provided with a crank mechanism for converting a reciprocating motion of a piston into a rotating motion of a crankshaft, a cylinder accommodating the piston, and an intake valve capable of opening and closing an inlet for sucking gas into the cylinder, and the control device is provided with: a volumetric efficiency calculating unit for calculating a volumetric efficiency representing a suction efficiency when gas is sucked into the cylinder, on the basis of a cylinder capacity when the intake valve is closed; a gas suction amount calculating unit for calculating a gas suction amount sucked into the cylinder, by means of a predetermined formula, on the basis of the calculated volumetric efficiency; and a control unit for controlling the internal combustion engine on the basis of the calculated gas suction amount.

    摘要: A combustion engine for a vehicle includes a first centrifugal device for varying timing of a first plurality of suction or relief valves with respect to the drive shaft. A driving disc is mounted idle on a first camshaft which controls the valves, and at least one driven disc is integral with the camshaft. Drive elements for transmitting motion from the driving disc to the driven disc are interposed between the two discs causing a relative rotation of the driven disc with respect to the driving disc when the rotation speed of the discs exceeds a predetermined threshold. A distribution system connects the drive shaft with the driving disc so as to cause the rotation thereof. A second gear meshes with a first gear so that rotation of the driving disc mounted on the first camshaft causes the rotation of the second camshaft to control other valves of the engine.

    摘要: An engine includes multiple cylinders having at least one deactivated cylinder and at least one activated cylinder, multiple intake valves, wherein each intake valve is positioned in an intake port of each of the cylinders, multiple exhaust valves, wherein each exhaust valve is positioned in an exhaust port of each of the cylinders, and an exhaust pulse valve positioned along an exhaust main passage fluidly connected between a turbine inlet to a turbocharger and the exhaust valves. Methods are disclosed that include deactivating the deactivated cylinders and operating the activated cylinders, while the exhaust pulse valve is actuated by fully opening the exhaust pulse valve when at least one of the multiple exhaust valves to the at least one activated cylinder is open and fully closing the exhaust pulse valve when each of the multiple exhaust valves to the at least one activated cylinder is closed.
