Abstract: Knocking and misfire are judged by detecting combustion ions generated in a combustion chamber with an ion sensor, obtaining an integral signal by integrating the ion signal, and comparing the integral signal with a misfire judgment value and a knocking judgment value based on a signal obtained by averaging integral signals of prescribed past cycles. It is possible to: reduce a computation load by detecting misfire and knocking with an identical ion sensor and carrying out a judgment treatment with identical judgment function logic; and detect trace knocking by setting a knocking judgment threshold value and hence increase the accuracy of ignition timing control.

Abstract: An injection control unit of a fuel is provided, which prevents generation of a nozzle deposit of a fuel injector. In a control unit of a fuel injector capable of controlling a lift height that is a distance between a valve body and a valve seat, after start of fuel injection and before end of the fuel injection, after the lift height is controlled to a first height, a period in which the lift height is controlled to a second height which is lower than the first height is provided for a predetermined period. According to such a configuration, when the lift height of the valve body is lowered to the second height after the fuel is injected at the first height, a fuel velocity in the vicinity of an inner wall of an injection port is increased due to an inertial force of the fuel and reduction in an opening area. By a fuel flow at a high velocity, a contamination substance adhering to a wall surface is washed away.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for attenuating fuel pump noise in a direct injection internal combustion engine. In one proposal, the direct injection fuel nozzle is suspended from a fuel rail in a fashion that avoids direct metal-to-metal contact between the injector and the engine block. The direct injection nozzle may also be connected to the fuel rail by a pair of spaced-apart seals which equalize the longitudinal pressure on the nozzle during operation. Enlarged diameter fuel reservoirs and/or a restricted orifice may be provided fluidly in series between the fuel pump and the direct injection nozzle in order to attenuate noise resulting from fuel pump pulsation.
