  • the number of engine revolution may overshoot to downward exceed the desired value N REF as shown by the broken curve in Fig. 3(C) even if the ON duty factor is increased at the time where the number of engine revolution has reached the value which is the sum of the desired value N REF and the predetermined value ANo.
  • the feedback control is not immediately effected upon the turning ON of the idling switch at the time t 1 but started when the number of engine revolution has reduced to the value which is larger than the reference or desired value N REF by a predetermined value ANo (for example, 400 r.p.m.), as shown in Fig. 3(E) and (F).

  • step 1202. judgement is made as to whether the ON duty factor increment ISCD is zero or not in the step 1202. If the result of judgement proves that the increment ISCD is not zero, a predetermined ON duty factor value Ad is subtracted from the ON duty factor increment ISCD and the resulted value is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM in the step 1203, and the processing is shifted to the step 1204.
  • the processing is shifted to the step 1204.
  • step 1204 judgement is made as to whether the idling switch is in the ON state or not. If the result of judgement in this step proves that the idling switch is in the OFF state, a flag 1 is set to "1" in the step 1205 and a flag 2 is reset to "0" in the step 1206. The flag 1 is for indicating the OFF state of the idling switch and the flag 2 is for executing the control to minimize the changing value AD for the ON duty factor feedback component ISC FB .
  • the reference number of engine revolution for idle running N REF is computed on the basis of the cooling water temperature and stored in a predetermined area of the RAM in the step 1208.
  • next judgement is made as to whether "1" is set in the flag 1 or not. If the result of judgement proves that "1" is not set to the flag 1, it is considered that the idling switch has been left in the ON state and the processing is shifted to the step 1214.
  • step 1209 If the result of judgement in the step 1209 proves that "1" is set in the flag 1, it is considered that the state of the idling switch has been changed from its OFF state to ON and judgement is made in the step 1210 as to whether the number of engine revolution N NEW taken-in in the step 1201 is not smaller than the value obtained by adding the value ANo to the reference number of engine revolution N REF for idle running. If the result of judgement in this step 1210 proves that the value N NEW is equal to or larger than the sum of the value N REF and the value ANo, it is considered that the ON duty factor is not yet to be subjected to the number-of-engine-revolution feedback control but to the open loop control and the processing is shifted to the step 1224.
  • the ON duty factor fixed component Ko is map-retrieved on the basis of the cooling water temperature and set into the register ISCC 142.
  • open loop control is effected after the turning ON of the idling switch and before the time t 1 . If the result of judgement in the step 1210 proves that the value N NEW is smaller than the sum of the value N REF and the value ANo, on the contrary, it is considered that the number-of-engine-revolution feedback control for the ON duty factor is to be effected and the flag 1 is reset in the step 1211.
  • the changing value AD for the feedback component ISC FB is set to a minimum value when the rate of reduction of the number of engine revolution An is smaller than the predetermined value ⁇ n o at the time t 1 as shown in Fig. 4, and "1" is set to the flag 1 to indicate such control.
  • the processing is shifted from the step 1209 to the step 1214 after the time t 1 .
  • the increment ISCD is set such that it is larger as the rate of reduction An is larger and set to zero when it is smaller than the predetermined value ⁇ n 1 , i.e. (An, ⁇ Ana). That is, as shown in Fig. 5, when the rate of reduction of the number of engine revolution An is equal to or larger than the predetermined value An 1 after the time t 1 , the increment ISCD in accordance with the rate of reduction An is add to the ON duty factor to prevent the sudden reduction in the engine speed.
  • the increment ISCD o obtained in the step 1214 is made to be the increment ISCD which is used in the ON duty factor computing operation in the step 1223.
  • the increment ISCD is renewed to a larger value determined corresponding to the rate of reduction of the number of engine revolution An to thereby prevent the engine speed from suddenly falling down.
  • the reference number of engine revolution N REF obtained in the step 1208 is compared with the number of engine revolution N NEW taken-in in the step 1201 to judge whether the former is not smaller than the latter. If the result of judgement in this step 1201 proves that N REF is smaller than N NEW , the flag 2 is reset in the step 1218. That is, it is considered that the control to minimize the changing value AD for the ON duty factor feedback component ISC FB has been completed.
  • the new feedback component ISC FB(NEW) is obtained from the previous feedback component ISC FB(OLD) (this value is assumed to be negative, here) and the changing value AD obtained in the step 1221. That is, the value (ISC FB(OLD) - AD) is made ISC FB(NEW).
  • ON duty factor is obtained from the value of increment ISCD determined in the steps 1215 and 1216 and the feedback component ISC FB(NEW) obtained in the step 1222. That is the value Ko + ISC FB(NEW) + ISCD is computed and set in the ISCC 142.
  • the flag 2 is set to "1" in the steps 1212 and 1213 and the change value AD for the feedback component ISC FB is minimized, as shown in the steps 1217 to 1220, to thereby prevent the number of engine revolution from falling down suddenly.
  • the ON duty factor increment ISCD is zero in this case.
  • the ON duty increment ISCD is obtained in the step 1214 on the basis of An, the larger one between this value ISCD and the value of difference obtained by subtracting the predetermined value Ad from the previous increment obtained in the step 1203 is obtained in the step 1215 and 1216, and the thus obtained value is added to the fixed and feedback components of the ON duty factor in the step 1223. In this manner, the ON duty factor is made larger to prevent the number of engine revolution from falling down when the rate of reduction of the number of engine revolution is large.
  • the present invention can be applied to the case where the feedback component ISC FB takes a positive value.
  • the feedback control is effected from the beginning because the number of engine revolution N is always smaller than the sum N REF + ANo.
  • the changing value Ad in the step 1203 and the changing value AD in the step 1221 are assumed to be negative, and the changing value ISCD for the ON duty is also assumed to be negative.
