Abstract
An electronic regulating device for regulating the rpm of an internal combustion engine having self-ignition in accordance with at least rpm, fuel quantity and accelerator-pedal position is proposed. The device has a PI regulator with feedback, for example, and is characterized in that the regulator itself is controllable in accordance with the respective rpm deviation. This is effected, with a view to the desired stability of operation, even in the presence of very steep characteristic curves, and the control is effected with a limitation of the respective maximum rpm deviation. To this end, one upper and one lower threshold characteristic curve are realized at either side of a static shutoff characteristic curve. These threshold curves are formed in accordance with rpm and accelerator-pedal position, and where there is a discrete regulator structure, in the case of limitation, they determine the voltage over the capacitor of the regulator determining the I component. With a view to the very steep characteristic curves which are desired, a feedback of the regulator output signal is provided, and the feedback component may have a proportional course or may follow a specific function.
