Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a forced-induction device, a blow-by gas passage, and a PCV pressure sensor detecting a pressure in the blow-by gas passage as a PCV pressure. A period during which an intake fluctuation amount, which is a fluctuation amount of an intake air amount per unit time, is greater than or equal to a specified value is defined as a specific period. The diagnosing apparatus executes a process of calculating a pressure fluctuation amount, which is a fluctuation amount of the PCV pressure in the specific period, a process of correcting the pressure fluctuation amount to a smaller value when the intake air fluctuation amount in the specific period is relatively large than when the intake air fluctuation amount is relatively small, and a process of determining, based on the corrected pressure fluctuation amount, whether there is an anomaly in the blow-by gas passage.

The removal determination device comprises: an input temperature sensor detecting a temperature at an upstream side of casing; an output temperature sensor detecting a temperature at a downstream side of the casing; an engine stop time collector measuring a time period from an inactivation of an engine to a startup of the engine; and a determiner determining a presence of the exhaust gas purifying device based on the input temperature and the output temperature, in a case that the time period is equal to or longer than a predetermined time.

Abstract: A diagnosis device is intended for an internal combustion engine including a supercharger, a blow-by gas passage that communicates between a portion of an intake passage and a crankcase, a PCV pressure sensor that detects a PCV pressure in the blow-by gas passage, and a crankshaft. The device executes specifying a specific period for which the amount of fluctuations in the intake air amount per unit time is a prescribed value or more on condition that the intake air amount is a determination air amount or more, calculating the amount of fluctuations in the PCV pressure during the specific period, and determining, based on the amount of fluctuations in the PCV pressure, the presence of an abnormality in the blow-by gas passage. The device sets the determination air amount to a smaller value when the rotational speed of the crankshaft is high than when the rotational speed is low.

Abstract: An upstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting an upstream gas temperature at a starting point in time of integration from the upstream gas temperature after starting of the internal combustion engine. A downstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting a downstream gas temperature at the starting point in time of the integration from the downstream gas temperature after the starting of the internal combustion engine. An anomaly diagnosing process obtains an anomaly determination result indicating that the exhaust purification device is in a removed state when a deviation between the upstream integrated value and the downstream integrated value is smaller than a reference level. The determination threshold is higher than a dew point.

A first pressure control valve commonly controls supply-discharge of pressure oil that presses the pump operation piston in a first slide direction and the motor operation piston in a smaller volume direction. A second pressure control valve controls supply-discharge of pressure oil that presses the pump operation piston in a second slide direction. Biasing forces of the neutral spring mechanism and the larger volume operation spring are so set that, after the pump operation piston is moved in the first slide direction by a predetermined distance, the motor operation piston starts moving.

Abstract: An anomaly diagnostic device for an onboard internal combustion engine includes a parameter deriving unit and a leaking anomaly diagnostic unit. The parameter deriving unit is configured to derive a determination parameter such that, when a PCV pressure sensor value that indicates a pressure detected by a PCV pressure sensor is less than an atmospheric pressure, a value of the determination parameter increases as the difference between the PCV pressure sensor value and the atmospheric pressure increases. The leaking anomaly diagnostic unit is configured to perform a leaking anomaly diagnostic process that diagnoses that there is an anomaly at a portion of a blow-by gas passage that is closer to an intake passage than to a connection portion of the PCV pressure sensor when the determination parameter derived when an intake air amount changes is less than a threshold.
