Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the increase in the output of a detector when pulsation is yielded in intake air, by providing an auxiliary opening part that is communicated to a main air path at the intermediate part of a bypass along the circumferential direction of the main path. CONSTITUTION:The main air path, which is communicated to opening ends 2a and 2b, is formed in the intake air flow rate detector 1. The diameter of the intermediate part of the path is relatively small and Venturi 3 is formed. A heating wire element 5 is provided in the bypass 4, which is arranged in parallel with the main air path. Said heating wire element 5 is connected to a heating wire control unit 7 that is attached to the outer surface of the intake air flow rate detector 1. The auxiliary opening part 6, which is communicated to the main air path, is formed at the intermediate path 4 along the circumferential direction of the main air path. In this intake air flow rate detecting device, the increase in the output of the detector yielded when the intake air is pulsated is eliminated.

However, the former has the disadvantage that the P heating wire becomes dirty due to backfire etc., resulting in performance deterioration.The latter, although it is possible to prevent the heating wire from becoming dirty, the air flow rate is detected due to the intake pulsation that occurs when the engine is under high load. The drawback was that the output of the device increased and the true air flow rate could not be controlled.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an intake air flow rate detection device for an internal combustion engine that can prevent contamination of a hot wire due to backfire or the like and also eliminates an increase in output of a detector that occurs during intake pulsation.゛Ninthly, in order to achieve such an object, the present invention experimentally confirms that the flow velocity fluctuations caused by the engine's one-stroke pulsations act on the bypass air passage, and provides an auxiliary opening in the bypass air passage. It is designed to interfere with pulsation in the bypass passage.

The intake air flow rate detector 1 has a main air passage communicating with its open ends 2m and 2b, and a venturi 3 is formed with a relatively small diameter in the middle of the main air passage. (9) A bypass passage 4 is formed substantially parallel to the main air passage and having the same opening end on the side of the opening end 2, and this bypass passage 4 is located at the pentier area 3, as shown in FIG.

In the intake air flow rate detection device for an internal combustion engine configured as described above, the air to be measured flows through the main air passage 2 m from the open end 2b and also flows into the pentier 3. At this time, negative pressure is generated in the pentier 3, and air flow is generated in the bypass passage 4 due to the pressure difference with the main air passage. When the flow velocity of air in the bypass passage 4 is measured by the hot wire element 5, the velocity of air flowing into the main air passage is detected.

As is clear from FIG. 3, curves M and B have deviations in the pressure change state along the elapsed time, so the bypass passage 4
The air flowing through the bypass passage flows backwards, and as a result, the amount of air flowing through the bypass passage is large, and the output of the flow rate detector becomes larger than the actual air flow rate. However, as in the embodiment described above, Bae/Churi 3. By providing auxiliary opening 6 in Therefore, there is no deviation in the pressure change state, and therefore backflow can be prevented and a normal pressure difference can be achieved.
