Abstract: A plurality of characteristic variables concerning the rotational speed are detected so as to be used for inference, and the plurality of characteristic variables are divided into a plurality of sets. Groups of rules each indicating the relationship between the characteristic variable corresponding to each set and an amount of gain adjustment, as well as the relationship between the magnitude of the characteristic variable corresponding to each set and the degree of adoption of the amount of gain adjustment, are stored. When it is determined that each of the characteristic variables cannot be controlled within a permissible range, the relationship between each of the characteristic variables of the groups of rules and the amount of gain adjustment is corrected in such a manner that the permissible range is broadened.

Abstract: A fuel injection device for an automotive internal combustion engine is disclosed, which comprises two distinct acceleration state determining means, i.e., a rapid and a slow acceleration state judgement means, for determining the amount of the asynchronous augmentation of fuel. The rapid acceleration state judgement detects the rapid acceleration state by comparing with a first threshold level the increment of the throttle opening degree over each period of an A/D conversion timing signal; the slow acceleration judgement means, on the other hand, detects the slow acceleration state by comparing with a second threshold level the increment of, for example, the throttle opening degree signal over, for example, two successive periods of the same A/D conversion time signal. When the rapid acceleration state is detected, an asynchronous augmentation of fuel for the rapid acceleration is effected.

Abstract: A fuel injection device for an automotive spark ignition internal combustion engine provided with a supercharger is disclosed, wherein the amount of fuel injected in synchrony with the crank angle signal is determined on the basis of the intake air pressure. The increment of the air pressure data over each fuel injection period is compared with a first threshold level to determine the first augmentation. The pressure data is averaged over each fuel injection period, and the increment of the averaged pressure data over a predetermined interval of time is compared with a second threshold level to determine the second augmentation. The fundamental amount is calculated on the basis of either the instantaneous or the averaged pressure data, in dependency on the value of the first augmentation amount.

Abstract: A fuel injector for a spark ignition internal combustion engine is disclosed, wherein the amount of injected fuel is increased by an extra amount when the engine is in a transient accelerating state. The air pressure within the air inlet passage to the engine is detected by an air pressure sensor, and the load condition is judged by comparing the detected pressure with a reference level. Further, the variation or increment of the detected pressure over each fuel injection period is calculated and compared with a high or a low threshold level selected in accordance with the load condition of the engine. Preferably, the high threshold level is selected when the high load condition continues over a predetermined length of time, the low threshold level being otherwise selected. The amount of transient extra increase is determined in accordance with the result of the comparison of the pressure variation with the selectd threshold level.
