  • Patent number: 12234786
    Abstract: Provided is an engine control device and an engine device that enable stable self-travelling of the engine in a limp home mode. The engine control device includes a revolution speed detection unit that detects revolution speed of the engine, and an arithmetic unit that calculates an opening of a throttle valve opened by an electronic throttle mechanism, and an injection amount of fuel injected by injectors. In an operation of the engine in the limp home mode, in a case where the revolution speed of the engine detected by the revolution speed detection unit exceeds a predetermined limiting value, the arithmetic unit performs an operation to suppress injection of the fuel to be injected by the injectors.

  • Publication number: 20250003377
    Abstract: A support structure for an intake manifold that reduces a burden of support on a front side of the intake manifold. The support structure includes a cylinder head and a fixing structure, and supports the intake manifold. An axial length direction of a crankshaft center is defined as a left-right direction, a horizontal direction orthogonal to the left-right direction is defined as a front-rear direction, and one side in the front-rear direction is defined as a front side. The intake manifold includes a collector and a plurality of branch pipes led out to the front side from the collector. An intake outlet at a front end of each of the branch pipes is supported by the cylinder head. The collector is elastically supported by the fixing structure. A throttle body is attached to a left or right end of the collector.

  • Patent number: 10287953
    Abstract: An exhaust purifying apparatus is provided, that can be manufactured at low manufacturing costs and is capable exhibiting high exhaust purifying performance. The exhaust purifying apparatus includes an exhaust passage, and an exhaust purifying member disposed in the exhaust passage. The exhaust purifying member is made of stainless steel. The surface of the stainless steel material is not covered with a catalyst coat containing a catalyst component, so that the surface of the stainless steel material is brought into contact with exhaust. The exhaust purifying member is made of precipitation hardening stainless steel and/or austenitic stainless steel.
