  • Patent number: 10927775
    Abstract: An engine control device includes an air amount detector, a requested torque acquisitor, a search axis value acquisitor, a storage, and a control target value acquisitor. The air amount detector detects an actual amount of intake air. The requested torque acquisitor acquires a requested torque. In a region of a lean burn region where the actual amount of intake air increases as the requested torque increases, the search axis value acquisitor acquires a value corresponding to the actual amount of intake air. In a region of the of the lean burn region where the actual amount of intake air does not increase as the requested torque increases, the search axis value acquisitor acquires a value corresponding to the requested torque. The control target value acquisitor acquires a control target value of an engine device by searching a device control map using an acquired search axis value.
