The present invention provides a catalyst diagnosis device that enables precisely grasping a variation of AFR and diagnosing a deteriorated condition of the catalyst based on the variation. A timer counts elapsed time Tosc until downstream AFU (AFRd) meets a predetermined threshold condition when the fuel injection quantity is corrected by increasing or decreasing it so that as to the AFRu, the transition from either of leanness or richness to the other is repeated with the stoichiometric area between the leanness and the richness. An OSA calculating section calculates an Oxygen Storage Amount (OSA) as a function of the &#x394;AFR, Mfuel, Ne and Tosa. An OPA calculating section calculates an Oxygen Purge Amount (OPA) as a function of the &#x394;AFR, Mfuel, Ne and Topa. A deterioration diagnosing section diagnoses a deteriorated condition of the catalyst C on the basis of at least one of the OSA and OPA.

Problem: The objective of the present invention is to provide a technique to enable more accurate measurement of oxygen contained in an exhaust gas in an exhaust device provided with an oxygen sensor. Solution: A catalyst which cleans the exhaust gas is provided in an exhaust pipe in an exhaust device that includes a muffler coupled downstream of the exhaust pipe, and an oxygen sensor is mounted on a pipe portion that is disposed downstream from the catalyst and that is directly coupled to the catalyst. The oxygen sensor is provided substantially perpendicular to the axial direction of the pipe portion through which the exhaust gas flows. The oxygen sensor includes a detecting portion, the detecting portion is disposed in a recessed portion formed in the muffler, and a wire is disposed on an outer side of the recessed portion.

A fuel injection control device for a multi-fuel engine includes a corrector and a reviewer. An alcohol concentration learning unit is provided to learn an alcohol concentration in an injected fuel based on an oxygen concentration detected in an exhaust gas. A fuel injection amount controller is provided to control a fuel injection amount based on a learning value corresponding to the oxygen concentration. The corrector is configured to reduce the fuel injection amount corresponding to the learning value for a predetermined time period when the learning value is higher than a threshold value when an engine is started. The reviewer is configured to review the learning value to provide a revised learning value based on the oxygen concentration while the corrector reduces the fuel injection amount. The fuel injection amount is controlled based on the revised learning value after the corrector reduces the fuel injection amount.

Fuel injection control device and method for multi-fuel engine

A fuel injection control apparatus for a multi-fuel engine can optimize a fuel injection quantity, using only one basic injection map, irrespective of alcohol concentration of a fuel. An E-concentration determining apparatus determines alcohol concentration of a fuel, based on a measured oxygen amount in exhaust. Basic injection quantities are stored in a basic injection map. E-concentration coefficients are stored in an E-concentration coefficient table for a plurality of alcohol concentrations in the fuel. A basic injection quantity, corresponding to a current rotary engine speed and a throttle opening, is selected from the basic injection map. A concentration coefficient, corresponding to the alcohol concentration and the basic injection quantity, is selected from the E-concentration coefficient table. A fuel injection quantity calculator determines an applied fuel injection quantity by multiplying the basic injection quantity by the concentration coefficient. Further adjustments using a number of additional correction coefficients may be made, as needed.
