Engine torque fluctuation controller

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To suppress fluctuation of torque while ensuring the acceleration performance by functioning a generator upon increase of torque while reducing or interrupting the reverse torque to be applied from the generator under acceleration synchronously with periodic fluctuation of engine torque. CONSTITUTION:Two kind of rotary side electromagnetic coils 8, 9 and a magnetic member 10 are provided on the outercircumference of a flywheel 2 fixed to the end of crank shaft 1 while a fixed side electromagnetic coil 7 is provided onto the innercircumference of a fixing member 6 secured to a cylinder block around the flywheel 2. A generator for applying reverse torque onto the crank shaft 1 through power supply to said coils 7, 9 is constructed. The generator is operated synchronously with periodic fluctuation of torque produced in the crank shaft 1 upon increase of torque, while upon detection of engine accelerating condition through acceleration detecting means, it is controlled to reduce or interrupt the reverse torque to be applied from the generator.
