Definitions
- the present invention relates to a sensor control device, a sensor control system, and a sensor control method.
- the air-fuel ratio which is the ratio of fuel to intake air
- the air-fuel ratio is controlled, more specifically, to oxygen contained in intake air. It is common practice to control the fuel ratio. In order to perform this control, it is necessary to measure the volume of the intake air.
- a method using an air mass flow sensor that measures the volume of intake air is known.
- the air mass flow sensor can be used for an internal combustion engine equipped with a suction throttle valve, and can measure the volume of intake air sucked into the cylinder, which varies depending on the operating state.
- EGR device exhaust gas recirculation device
- the amount of oxygen contained in the intake air changes according to “EGR amount”. In other words, the amount of oxygen drawn into the cylinder changes.
- the amount of oxygen sucked into the cylinder is assumed on the assumption that the proportion of oxygen contained in the intake air is the same as the proportion of oxygen contained in the atmosphere, for example. Is calculated.
- the proportion of oxygen contained in the intake air changes, so that the amount of oxygen taken into the cylinder cannot be accurately calculated.
- a technique for calculating the amount of oxygen sucked into the cylinder using an oxygen sensor that measures the concentration of oxygen contained in the intake air has been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
- the volume of intake air sucked into the cylinder is measured with an air mass flow sensor, and the oxygen concentration of the intake air is measured with an oxygen sensor, whereby the amount of oxygen sucked into the cylinder is calculated.
- the air-fuel ratio control is preferably feedforward control for controlling the amount of fuel injected into the cylinder or the intake port according to the oxygen amount calculated as described above.
- the sensor correction coefficient is obtained based on the acquired data once, if the acquisition of accurate data fails, the sensor correction coefficient is obtained based on the data that has failed to be acquired. There was a problem that it was difficult to keep.
- data is acquired only after the ignition key is turned off, in other words, the frequency of data acquisition is low and the frequency of sensor correction coefficient updates is low, eliminating the impact of failing to acquire accurate data. There was a problem that it was difficult.
- a sensor control device capable of suppressing deterioration in measurement accuracy of an oxygen sensor.
- the sensor control device is connected to an oxygen sensor including a sensor element that measures an oxygen concentration in an intake atmosphere of an internal combustion engine including an exhaust gas recirculation device.
- the sensor control device includes a detection unit and a calculation unit.
- the detection unit detects an output signal corresponding to the oxygen concentration output from the sensor element.
- the calculation unit calculates a correction coefficient of the output signal used when calculating the oxygen concentration. Further, the calculation unit corrects the output signal obtained during a period in which the exhaust gas recirculation device stops the recirculation of the exhaust gas into the intake atmosphere and the internal combustion engine is idling stop. Acquired as correction information used for coefficient calculation.
- a sensor control method is a sensor control method in an oxygen sensor including a sensor element that measures an oxygen concentration in an intake atmosphere of an internal combustion engine including an exhaust gas recirculation device.
- This sensor control method includes a detection step, a condition determination step, a reflux stop step, an idle stop step, an acquisition step, and a calculation step.

- the obtaining step the output signal obtained during the idle stop period is obtained as correction information used for calculating the correction coefficient.
- the correction coefficient is calculated based on the acquired correction information.
- the exhaust gas recirculation to the intake air (intake atmosphere) is stopped at the timing of obtaining correction information used to calculate the correction coefficient for correcting the output signal of the sensor element. Since the internal combustion engine is set to a period during which the engine is idle-stopped under the above condition, it is easier to secure the opportunity to acquire the correction information and the number of acquisition times than in the case of Patent Document 1.
- the idling stop can occur frequently when the internal combustion engine is operated in a general operating state (for example, when traveling in a city with a vehicle equipped with the internal combustion engine), so the ignition key is turned off.

- the idle stop when the correction information is acquired, in addition to idling stop, the exhaust gas recirculation to the intake air is stopped, so that the influence of the exhaust gas is reduced from the output signal output from the sensor element.
- the idle stop When the idle stop is executed after the exhaust gas recirculation is stopped, the idle stop may be performed after a predetermined waiting time has elapsed after the exhaust gas recirculation is stopped.
- the exhaust gas recirculated immediately before recirculation of the exhaust gas is sucked into the internal combustion engine (in the cylinder), so that the intake atmosphere around the sensor element becomes equal to the atmosphere, and the output signal output from the sensor element Therefore, the influence of exhaust gas can be further excluded.
- the calculation unit may acquire the correction information after a predetermined period has elapsed after the internal combustion engine is idle stopped.
- the idle stop step further includes a period determination step for determining whether or not a predetermined period has elapsed after the idle stop of the internal combustion engine is executed.

Can be further suppressed.
- the first average value described above is compared with individual correction information, and the influence of errors included when acquiring correction information is eliminated by performing an averaging process. Therefore, by correcting the output signal of the sensor element based on the correction coefficient calculated using the first average value, it becomes easier to further suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor.
- the calculation unit may obtain a second average value that is an average of the plurality of first average values, and calculate the correction coefficient using the second average value.

- the second average value obtained by further averaging the first average value, which is the average of the plurality of correction information is further excluded from the influence of the error included when acquiring the correction information, as compared with the first average value. Therefore, by correcting the output signal of the sensor element based on the correction coefficient calculated using the second average value, it becomes easier to further suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor.
- the calculation unit may obtain an average value of a plurality of the correction information, and calculate the correction coefficient using the average value.
- the correction coefficient may be calculated based on an average value of the plurality of correction information in the calculation step.
- the calculation unit may acquire an output of an intake pressure sensor that measures the pressure of the intake atmosphere, and correct the correction information based on the acquired output.
- the correction information in the acquisition step, is corrected based on an output of an intake pressure sensor that measures the intake pressure of the internal combustion engine, and in the calculation step, the corrected correction information is added to the correction information.

- the correction information may include an error due to the influence of the pressure of the intake air (intake atmosphere).
- the correction information is corrected from the correction information. It is reduced.
- the corrected correction information it becomes easier to suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor.
- the calculation unit obtains an output of an intake pressure sensor that measures the pressure of the intake atmosphere, and determines that the output fluctuation amount of the intake pressure sensor has become a specific value or less. Acquisition of the correction information may be started.
- the correction information is acquired after determining that the output fluctuation amount of the intake pressure sensor is not more than a specific value within the idling stop period of the internal combustion engine, thereby suppressing the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor. It becomes easy to do. That is, since it is determined that the intake state (flow) is stable based on the output of the intake pressure sensor and the correction information is acquired and the correction coefficient is calculated, a more accurate correction coefficient can be calculated.
- a sensor control system includes an oxygen sensor, a state measurement unit, a determination unit, and the sensor control device.
- the oxygen sensor includes a sensor element that measures an oxygen concentration in an intake atmosphere of an internal combustion engine including an exhaust gas recirculation device.

- the sensor control device acquires the correction information during a period in which the determination unit determines that the idle stop is being executed. According to this sensor control system, since the above-described sensor control device is used, it is easy to suppress deterioration in measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor.
- the output signal of the sensor element obtained during the period in which exhaust gas recirculation is stopped and the internal combustion engine is idling is corrected.

- the energization control to the sensor element 11 controls the energization state of the pump current supplied to the oxygen pump cell so that the electromotive force (voltage) generated in the electromotive force detection cell based on the oxygen concentration in the measurement chamber becomes a target value. At this time, the pump current flowing through the oxygen pump cell is output as the output signal Ip.

- the detection signal output from the brake sensor 66 indicates that the foot brake is operated (depressed). It is determined whether or not. If any one of these conditions is not satisfied, it is determined that the idle stop condition is not satisfied (NO), and the ECU 43 executes a process that does not execute the idle stop (S22). Furthermore, ECU43 outputs the control signal which performs the normal control performed when the engine 40 is drive
- the ECU 43 closes the EGR valve 53 with respect to the EGR device 50.
- a control signal is output (reflux stop step: S24).

- a process of determining whether or not the ignition key is turned off is executed (S29). If the ignition key is turned on in S29 (in the case of NO), the process returns to S21 again, and the subsequent processes are repeated. On the other hand, if it is determined in S29 that the ignition key is off (in the case of YES), the idle stop execution process is terminated.

Is stored in the storage unit 16 as an Ipn sample.
- the calculation unit 15 executes a process of updating the value of the variable n of the output signal Ip sample (S42). Specifically, a process for increasing the value of the variable n by one is executed. When the value of the variable n is updated, the calculation unit 15 performs a determination process as to whether or not the value of the variable n is equal to 11 (S43). In other words, the process of determining whether or not the number of acquisitions of the output signal Ip sample has reached 10 times is executed. If the number of variables n has not reached 11 (in the case of NO), the process proceeds to S44, where it is determined whether or not the value of the idle stop flag remains 1.
- the calculation unit 15 When it is determined in S44 that the value of the idle stop flag remains 1 (in the case of YES), the calculation unit 15 returns to the above-described S41 and repeatedly executes the above-described processing. On the other hand, if it is determined in S44 that the value of the idle stop flag is 0 (that is, the idle stop is canceled), the process proceeds to S45, the number of variables n is reset to 1, and S16 in FIG. Returning to, the above-described processing is repeated.
- the calculation unit 15 determines whether or not the value of the variable z is greater than 3 (S51). In other words, the process of determining whether or not the number of times of calculation (acquisition) of the average value Ipavz stored in the storage unit 16 has exceeded three times is executed. When the number of variables z is 3 or less (in the case of NO), the calculation unit 15 ends the correction process without performing the update process of the correction coefficient Ipcomp.
- the calculation unit 15 executes a process of updating the value of the correction coefficient Ipcomp used so far (calculation step: S53). Specifically, a calculation process for calculating a new correction coefficient Ipcomp is performed by dividing the reference value stored in advance in the calculation unit 15 by the average value Ipavzave. A process of storing (updating) the new correction coefficient Ipcomp obtained by this calculation process in the storage unit 16 as a correction coefficient Ipcomp to be used thereafter is executed. Thus, the correction process for the correction coefficient Ipcomp in the oxygen sensor control unit 12 is completed.
- the timing for acquiring the output signal Ip which is correction information used to calculate the correction coefficient Ipcomp for correcting the output signal Ip of the sensor element 11, is obtained. Since the engine 40 is set to a period in which the engine 40 is idle-stopped in a state where the recirculation of the exhaust gas to the intake air (intake atmosphere) is stopped, an output signal which is correction information compared to the case of Patent Document 1. It is easy to secure an opportunity to acquire Ip and the number of acquisitions. As a result, it becomes easy to suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
- the idle stop can occur at a high frequency when the internal combustion engine is operated in a general operation state, and therefore, the output that is correction information is compared with the stop (manual stop) of the engine 40 caused by turning off the ignition key. It is easy to secure an opportunity to acquire the signal Ip and the like, and it is easy to suppress deterioration in measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
- a highly accurate correction coefficient Ipcomp can be calculated based on the output signal Ip that is more correction information. It is easy to suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
- the output signal of the sensor element obtained during idle stop is acquired as an output signal Ip that is correction information, correction information with reduced dependency on the flow (velocity) of intake air is obtained, As a result, a highly accurate correction coefficient can be calculated.
- the idle stop when the correction information is acquired, the exhaust gas recirculation to the intake air is stopped in addition to the idling stop, so that the influence of the exhaust gas is reduced from the output signal Ip output from the sensor element 11.
- the idle stop When the idle stop is executed after the exhaust gas recirculation is stopped, the idle stop may be performed after a predetermined waiting time has elapsed after the exhaust gas recirculation is stopped.
- the exhaust gas recirculated immediately before recirculation of the exhaust gas is sucked into the engine 40 (inside the cylinder 41), so that the suction atmosphere around the sensor element 11 becomes equal to the atmosphere and is output from the sensor element 11.

That is, since the correction coefficient Ipcomp is calculated by acquiring the output signal Ip or the like as correction information after the intake flow has substantially stopped, correction information with reduced dependency on the intake flow (flow velocity) is obtained. As a result, a more accurate correction coefficient can be calculated.
- the output signal Ip which is correction information
- the correction coefficient Ipcomp is calculated using an average value Ipavz, which is the average of the output signal Ip, which is the plurality of correction information.
- the average value Ipavz is compared with the output signal Ip or the like as individual correction information, and the influence of errors included when acquiring the output signal Ip or the like as correction information is reduced by performing an averaging process. Therefore, by correcting the output signal Ip of the sensor element 11 based on the correction coefficient Ipcomp calculated using the average value Ipavz, it becomes easier to suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
- the average value Ipavzave obtained by further averaging the average value Ipavz that is the average of the output signals Ip and the like that are a plurality of correction information is an error that is included in the acquisition of the output signal Ip and the like that is further correction information as compared with the average value Ipavz.
- the influence of is reduced. Therefore, by correcting the output signal Ip of the sensor element 11 based on the correction coefficient Ipcomp calculated using the average value Ipavzave, it becomes easier to further suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
- the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10 can be further suppressed. That is, since the output signal Ip that is correction information may include an error due to the influence of the pressure of the intake atmosphere, the correction is performed by correcting the output signal Ip that is correction information based on the output of the intake pressure sensor 61. The error due to the influence of pressure is reduced from the output signal Ip which is information. By using the corrected output signal Ip, it becomes easier to suppress the deterioration of the measurement accuracy of the oxygen sensor 10.
