Abstract: Variations in the air-fuel ratio among cylinders are specified as one cause of deterioration in exhaust emissions however the size of the variations in the air-fuel ratio among cylinders detected by the catalyst upstream sensor does not always match the margin of deterioration in exhaust emissions. The objective of the present invention is to detect the deterioration in the exhaust emissions caused due to variations in the air-fuel ratio among cylinders. Deterioration in exhaust emissions due to variations in the air-fuel ratio among engine cylinders is detected based on a means to calculate a specified frequency component A of the catalyst upstream sensor signal; a means to calculate a specified frequency component B of the catalyst downstream sensor signal; and the frequency component A and the frequency component B.

Abstract: The present invention performs correction appropriately according to errors in the fuel system and air system respectively and corrects both variations in the air-fuel ratio and torque. When the difference between a target air-fuel ratio and a real air-fuel ratio is equal to or below a predetermined value when feedback control based on the air-fuel ratio of an exhaust manifold 10A is in progress, the air-fuel ratio of a cylinder cyl—1 having the largest variation of angular acceleration is corrected to the rich side, for example, by increasing the amount of fuel. Angular acceleration per cylinder is then detected again and when the variation in angular acceleration among cylinders is not eliminated, it is judged that there is an error in the amount of air control of the cylinder having the largest variation and the amount of air, amount of fuel, ignition timing or the like are corrected.

Abstract: A first, a second, and a third combustion region are defined by the air-fuel ratio of the mixture gas feeding combustion. Upon switching of combustion regions from the first combustion region to the third combustion region and from the third combustion region to the first combustion region, namely, when the second combustion region is passed, the mass of NOx emission downstream of an exhaust purifying device and the torque variation are estimated online. Based on the estimated value of the mass of NOx emission and the estimated value of the torque variation, the mass of intake air introduced into the combustion chamber is adjusted in a manner different from when normal, such as by changing the amount of lift of the intake valve, for example, so as to reduce the mass of NOx emission downstream of the exhaust purifying device and the torque variation below predetermined values upon passing of the second combustion region.
