    Abstract: An abnormality detection device for an air-fuel ratio detection device arranged downstream of a filter is equipped with an abnormality detection unit that detects an abnormality in the air-fuel ratio detection device based on output change characteristics of the air-fuel ratio detection device during fuel cutoff control for stopping the supply of fuel to a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, and a combustion determination unit that determines whether or not a combustion amount of particulate matter in a filter during fuel cutoff control is larger than a predetermined amount. The abnormality detection unit prohibits detection of an abnormality in the air-fuel ratio detection device when the combustion determination unit determines that the combustion amount is larger than the predetermined amount.

    Abstract: The abnormality diagnosis system 1 of a downstream side air-fuel ratio detection device 41, 42, comprises an air-fuel ratio control part 71 controlling an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture, an abnormality judgment part 72 judging abnormality of the downstream side air-fuel ratio detection device based on a characteristic of change of output of the downstream side air-fuel ratio detection device when the air-fuel ratio control part makes the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture change, and an oxygen change calculation part 73 calculating an amount of change of an oxygen storage amount of the catalyst when the air-fuel ratio control part makes the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture change. The abnormality judgment part does not judge abnormality of the downstream side air-fuel ratio detection device when the amount of change of the oxygen storage amount is less than a lower limit threshold value.
