A section where a piston of a four cycle internal combustion engine makes one rotation from a position reaching a top dead point to a next top dead point is taken as a determination object section, and an output of a pressure sensor for detecting an intake air pressure of the internal combustion engine is sampled. A maximum value of an inclination of a change in the intake air pressure in the process of increasing an absolute value of the intake air pressure sampled in each determination object section is found and, when the maximum value of the inclination of the change in the intake air pressure found in each determination object section is larger than the maximum value of the inclination of the change in the intake air pressure found in the determination object section which is one section before each determination object section, each determination object section is determined to be a section where the intake stroke and the compression stroke are performed.

A fuel cut control device that stops supply of fuel to an internal combustion engine during deceleration of the internal combustion engine having a throttle valve for each cylinder, which detects a maximum value of an intake pipe pressure during one combustion cycle of the internal combustion engine, starts fuel cut control when it is detected that the detected maximum value of the intake pipe pressure becomes less than a set fuel cut start determination value, and stop the fuel cut control when it is detected that the detected maximum value of the intake pipe pressure exceeds a fuel supply restart determination value set higher than the fuel cut start determination value to restart the supply of the fuel to the internal combustion engine.

Fuel cut control device for internal combustion engine

A method of controlling a DC servomotor for driving a driven member coupled by a wire to an operation member of a valve, wherein, at the start of a control, the motor is driven first to rotate the operation shaft of the valve to a limit position after the motor stops, a driving current of the motor is gradually reduced to return slowly the driven member by a tension of the wire, and a position of the driven member when the driving current of the motor becomes zero is stored as a final stop position, thereafter, a rotational range of the driven member is limited to the range between these final stop positions when the position of the driven member is controlled to coincide with a target position.

Method and device for controlling DC servomotor for driving rotating load

An operating state detecting method for an internal combustion engine for detecting whether the engine is in an accelerating state and/or whether it is in a decelerating state without detecting the opening degree of a throttle valve is to be provided. A plurality of rotational angle positions of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine are specified as sampling positions, and pressures within an air intake pipe sampled at each sampling position are stored. Every time a pressure within the air intake pipe is sampled at each sampling position, the newly sampled pressure within the air intake pipe is compared with a previous pressure within the air intake pipe sampled at the same sampling position one combustion cycle before, and whether the engine is in an accelerating state and/or whether it is in a decelerating state is determined from the result of comparison.
