Abstract
An exhaust emission purification control device for an engine that accurately estimates an accumulated oxygen amount of a catalyst at a terminating time of a reduction treatment which includes a secondary air injector that injects secondary air within an exhaust path, a sensor which detects an air-fuel ratio in a downstream side of a catylyst, a count-value accumulator which estimates an accumulated oxygen amount (a count value) in the catalyst during the secondary air injection, and a rich spike controller which performs rich injection after the secondary air injection. The device includes a count-value corrector that multiplies the count value after the secondary air injection by a correction coefficient derived from an output value SVOof the Osensor during termination of reduction treatment, so as to estimate the accumulated oxygen amount during the termination of the reduction treatment.
