An intake passage of an engine includes a throttle valve, a supercharger, and a bypass passage connecting an upstream side with a downstream side of the supercharger and opening when the supercharger is not acting. When the supercharger is not acting, the intake passage generates forward flows in which intake air flows from the throttle valve toward the supercharger and bypass-directed flows in which the intake air is reversed due to blockage of forward movement by the supercharger and flows from the supercharger side toward a connection port, of the bypass passage, opening in the intake passage. An evaporated fuel introduction opening leading evaporated fuel produced in a fuel tank to the intake passage opens in a wall surface, on which the bypass-directed flow is generated, in the intake passage.

Evaporated fuel treatment device for engine

A control system of an engine is provided. The control system includes an exhaust emission control catalyst provided in an exhaust passage, a deceleration fuel cutoff module for performing a deceleration fuel cutoff when a deceleration fuel cutoff condition is satisfied in an engine decelerating state, a purging unit for performing a purge to supply a purge gas to an intake passage during the deceleration fuel cutoff, an evaporated fuel supply amount estimating module for estimating a supply amount of evaporated fuel to the intake passage when the purge is performed, and a catalyst temperature estimating module for estimating a temperature of the exhaust emission control catalyst when the purge is performed, based on the supply amount of the evaporated fuel. The purging unit controls a supply flow rate of the purge gas to the intake passage when the purge is performed, based on the exhaust emission control catalyst temperature.

Control system of engine

A control system of an engine in which a purge gas containing evaporated fuel desorbed from a canister is supplied to an intake passage of the engine is provided. The control system includes a deceleration fuel cutoff module for performing a deceleration fuel cutoff to stop a fuel supply from an injector to the engine when a predetermined deceleration fuel cutoff condition is satisfied in a decelerating state of the engine, a purge unit for purging by supplying the purge gas to the intake passage during the deceleration fuel cutoff, an Osensor provided in an exhaust passage of the engine, an abnormality determining module for determining an abnormality of the Osensor based on a change of an output value of the Osensor that is caused by the deceleration fuel cutoff, and a purge restricting module for restricting the purge during the abnormality determination.
