Abstract: This fuel injection control apparatus consists of a calculating device for calculating an air-fuel ratio correction factor FAF, a learning device for learning an air-fuel ratio learning factor KG in accordance with the deviation of FAF from the reference value, and a controller for controlling the amount of injected fuel in accordance with FAF and KG. When the start enrichment FASE and the warm-up enrichment FWL are added, KG is learned in accordance with the corrected deviation which is the deviation of FAF corrected by the correction factor f(FASE+FWL) which is concerned with FASE and FWL. The learning accuracy is improved because KG is learned at each region of FWL which is divided into plural regions in accordance with the engine driving conditions.

Abstract: Fuel-vapor evaporating from a fuel tank is led through a vapor pipe and absorbed in a charcoal canister. Fuel-vapor stored in the charcoal canister is supplied to an inlet pipe when a purge valve is opened when the engine is driven, because the pressure in the inlet pipe is low. Fuel-vapor is then burned as fuel in the engine. If the opening of the purge valve is suddenly increased at the start of the purge, the air fuel ratio control is disturbed. Therefore, the purge rate is gradually increased and the vapor concentration of the fuel-vapor purged from the charcoal canister is learned, and the change rate of the purge rate is made small because the air-fuel ratio control may be disturbed when the vapor concentration is not learned enough.

Abstract: An air-fuel ratio control apparatus includes: a determining part for determining a target purge ratio in accordance with operating conditions of an engine; a purge control part for controlling a flow rate of evaporated fuel, supplied from an evaporated fuel purge system into an intake passage of the engine, by actuating a purge control valve based on the target purge ratio, and for storing an evaporated fuel flow rate of the purge control valve; a fuel injection control part for generating a drive signal in accordance with a fuel injection time, and for controlling an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture to the intake passage by actuating a fuel injection valve in accordance with the drive signal; an estimating part for estimating the ratio of an evaporated fuel flow rate to an intake air flow rate based on sensed operating conditions of the engine and on the stored evaporated fuel flow rate of the purge control part; and a fuel injection time determining part for determining a fuel injection time based on t
