Abstract: This control device for an internal combustion engine includes: an exhaust purification catalyst that is provided in an exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine; a downstream air-fuel ratio sensor that is provided downstream of the exhaust purification catalyst; and an air-fuel ratio control device that controls such that the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust purification catalyst reaches a target air-fuel ratio. The downstream air-fuel ratio sensor is configured such that the applied voltage thereof at which the output current becomes zero decreases as the exhaust air-fuel ratio increases. If the target air-fuel ratio is richer than the reference air-fuel ratio, the voltage applied to the downstream air-fuel ratio sensor is set to a higher voltage than the voltage at which the output current becomes zero when the exhaust air-fuel ratio is the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. If the target air-fuel ratio is leaner than the reference air-fuel ratio, the voltage applied to the downstream air-fuel ratio sensor is set to a lower voltage than the voltage at which the output current becomes zero when the exhaust air-fuel ratio is the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. A control device for an internal combustion engine using an air-fuel ratio sensor that can reliably detect when the absolute value of the exhaust air-fuel ratio reaches a prescribed air-fuel ratio richer than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio is thus provided.
Abstract translation: 该内燃机用控制装置具备:排气净化催化剂,其设置在内燃机的排气通路中; 设置在排气净化催化剂下游的下游空燃比传感器; 以及空气燃料比控制装置,其控制使流入所述排气净化催化剂的废气的空燃比达到目标空燃比。 下游空燃比传感器被配置为使得其输出电流为零的施加电压随着排气空燃比的增加而减小。 如果目标空燃比比参考空燃比更浓,那么施加到下游空燃比传感器的电压设定为比排气空燃比输出电流为零时的电压高 比是化学计量空燃比。 如果目标空燃比比参考空燃比更精细,那么施加到下游空燃比传感器的电压设定为比排气空燃比输出电流为零时的电压低的电压 比是化学计量空燃比。 因此,提供了一种使用空燃比传感器的内燃机的控制装置,该空燃比传感器能够可靠地检测当排气空燃比的绝对值达到比理论空燃比富于规定的空燃比时。
