Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A fuel injection control device sets an injection sharing ratio of a quantity of a fuel injected in an intake stroke, and a quantity of a fuel injected in a compression stroke, based on an operating state or an environmental condition of the engine, and manipulates the cylinder fuel injection device so as to inject a part or all of a required fuel in the intake stroke and inject a remaining part in the compression stroke, in accordance with the set injection sharing ratio. The injection sharing ratio is set so as to make a proportion of the quantity of the fuel which is injected in the intake stroke larger when a temperature of air which is taken into a cylinder is higher than a fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device, as compared to when the temperature of the air is lower than the fuel.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A fuel injection control device for an internal combustion engine having a cylinder fuel injection device, comprising: injection sharing ratio setting means that sets an injection sharing ratio of a quantity of a fuel which is injected in an intake stroke, and a quantity of a fuel which is injected in a compression stroke, in accordance with an operating state or an environmental condition of the internal combustion engine; and manipulating means that manipulates the cylinder fuel injection device to inject a part or all of a required fuel in the intake stroke and inject a remaining part in the compression stroke, in accordance with the set injection sharing ratio, wherein the injection sharing ratio setting means sets the injection sharing ratio so as to make a proportion of the quantity of the fuel which is injected in the intake stroke larger when a temperature of air which is taken into a cylinder is determined to be higher than a temperature of a fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device, as compared with a case where the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is determined to be lower than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device. 2. The fuel injection control device for an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the injection sharing ratio setting means sets the injection sharing ratio so as to make a proportion of a quantity of a fuel which is injected in the compression stroke larger than the proportion of the quantity of the fuel which is injected in the intake stroke when the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is determined to be lower than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel intake device, and sets the injection sharing ratio so that all of a required fuel is injected in the intake stroke when the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is determined to be higher than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device. 3. The fuel injection control device for an internal combustion engine according to claim 1 , wherein the internal combustion engine is an internal combustion engine with a supercharger. 4. A direct-injection internal combustion engine having a cylinder fuel injection device, comprising: a fuel injection control device that makes a proportion of a quantity of a fuel which is injected in an intake stroke larger when a temperature of air which is taken into a cylinder is higher than a temperature of a fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device, as compared with a case where the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is lower than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device. 5. The direct-injection internal combustion engine according to claim 4 , wherein the fuel injection control device makes a proportion of a quantity of a fuel which is injected in the compression stroke larger than the proportion of the quantity of the fuel which is injected in the intake stroke when the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is lower than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel intake device, and makes all of a required fuel injected in the intake stroke when the temperature of the air which is taken into the cylinder is higher than the temperature of the fuel which is injected from the cylinder fuel injection device.
