Electronically controlled fuel injection apparatus for internal combustion engine

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5688753
An electronically controlled fuel injection apparatus is described for an internal combustion engine which controls the amount of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine by controlling an injector. The apparatus consists of: engine speed detecting means for detecting a speed of the engine; intake air flow rate amount detecting means for detecting the intake air flow rate supplied to the engine; idling condition sensing means for sensing that a throttle valve is operated to be the minimum aperture; basic injection pulse generating means for determining a basic fuel injection time according to the engine speed and the intake air flow rate so as to generate a pulse for opening the injector while the pulse is generated, the pulse having a width corresponding to the basic fuel injection time; and correction means for enlarging the width of the pulse for opening the injector when the engine decelerates at a rate more than a predetermined rate under idling condition, the correction means enlarging the width of the pulse by a width in proportion to the engine speed deceleration rate.
