  • Patent number: 11156190
    Abstract: Occlusion diagnosis of a vent passage is executed with high accuracy based on an estimated value of the volume of a sealed space. An occlusion diagnosis device includes a diagnosis unit for the diagnosis. An occlusion diagnosis unit of the diagnosis unit executes the occlusion diagnosis, based on whether or not an estimated volume of a sealed space of a fuel-vapor sealing system exceeds a volume threshold. The occlusion diagnosis determines that the vent passage is suspected of being occluded if the estimated volume is equal to or less than the volume threshold, while diagnoses that the vent passage is not occluded if the estimated volume exceeds the volume threshold. If it is determined that the vent passage is suspected of being occluded, the occlusion diagnosis unit causes the occlusion diagnosis of the vent passage to remain incomplete until a cumulative exhaust amount of fluid exceeds an exhaust amount threshold.

  • Publication number: 20210293196
    Abstract: In a failure determination device for an internal combustion engine equipped with a supercharger, the failure determination device determining a failure of a breather pipe that is connected between a crankcase and an intake passage at a position on an upstream side of the supercharger, the breather pipe is constituted by a double pipe including an inner pipe and an outer pipe, a communication passage communicates an enclosed space between the inner pipe and the outer pipe of the breather pipe with a portion of the intake passage on a downstream side of the supercharger. When the detected breather outer-pipe gauge pressure is higher than or equal to a determination threshold that is set in accordance with detected intake gauge pressure, the failure determination device determines that the breather pipe is failed.

  • Patent number: 10928276
    Abstract: A blockage detection device opens a purge valve in a state where a negative pressure pump is operated. The negative pressure pump is connected to a downstream side of a canister with respect to a fuel tank, and reduces pressure in a device internal space. The blockage detection device calculates gas information (volume V, for example) of the device internal space on the basis of variation of internal pressure before and after the purge valve is opened. The blockage detection device detects a blockage in a vent line using the calculated gas information.

  • Patent number: 10712228
    Abstract: A blockage diagnosis device includes a diagnosis unit that performs blockage diagnosis on a vent passage based on a change over time in an internal pressure of the vent passage in association with the operation of a negative pressure pump. A primary determination unit of the diagnosis unit makes a primary determination that the vent passage is blocked, if a first estimation volume V1 is less than a preset threshold volume Vth. A secondary determination unit of the diagnosis unit makes a secondary determination that the vent passage is blocked, if the second estimation volume V2 is less than the threshold volume Vth. If the primary determination indicating that the vent passage is blocked is made in the primary determination unit, and the secondary determination indicating that the vent passage is blocked is made in the secondary determination unit, the diagnosis unit determines that the vent passage is blocked.
