Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

At the time of an engine start while the vehicle is driving, when a required vehicle driving force (TRQ) is smaller than or equal to a predetermined value (TRQth), an electronic control unit ( 20 ) estimates that the degree of deformation of a mount ( 11 ) is smaller than or equal to a predetermined degree and sets a second-cycle fuel injection amount (Q 2 ) so as to be larger than a first-cycle fuel injection amount (Q 1 ) at the time of the engine start. On the other hand, when the required vehicle driving force (TRQ) is larger than the predetermined value (TRQth), the electronic control unit ( 20 ) estimates that the degree of deformation of the mount ( 11 ) is larger than the predetermined degree and sets the first-cycle fuel injection amount (Q 1 ) so as to be larger than the second-cycle fuel injection amount (Q 2 ) at the time of the engine start.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An in-vehicle internal combustion engine control device that is applied to a vehicle equipped with an internal combustion engine and a power source, other than the internal combustion engine, as power sources that rotate a drive wheel, and that starts the engine while the vehicle is driving, comprising: an electronic control unit programmed to perform: detecting a parameter associated with a degree of deformation of a mount, wherein the mount couples…
