Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 91 words
Apparatus for correcting a fuel apportionment signal in an internal combustion engine during a change in quantity comprising, in combination, a first storage device, means for charging said first storage device in accordance with rpm to provide a stored value, a second storage device for providing a periodic alteration signal, means including said stored value for determining the content of said second storage device during certain time intervals and according to a certain function and means including the alteration signal of said second storage device for correcting the fuel apportionment signal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 91 words
Apparatus for correcting a fuel apportionment signal in an internal combustion engine during a change in quantity comprising, in combination, a first storage device, means for charging said first storage device in accordance with rpm to provide a stored value, a second storage device for providing a periodic alteration signal, means including said stored value for determining the content of said second storage device during certain time intervals and according to a certain function and means including the alteration signal of said second storage device for correcting the fuel apportionment signal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 1 wherein the time interval for the signal change of said second storage device is held constant or depends on operating characteristics.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 2 wherein the time interval for the signal change of said second storage device is at least dependent on the rpm and/or on the load.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 1 wherein the function of the signal change of the second storage device is different depending on the direction of the change.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 24 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 4 wherein an exponential function is provided as the function of the signal change of said second storage device.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 29 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 5 wherein the charging of said first storage device is repeated after certain edges of the rpm transducer signal and follows an exponential function.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 42 words
Apparatus in accordance with claim 6 including a pulse generator, a correction unit for the injection pulse and means for feeding the change signal of said second storage device to said pulse generator and/or to said correction unit for the injection pulse.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 116 words
Apparatus for correcting a fuel apportionment signal in an internal combustion engine during a change in required fuel quantity including: a first electrical storage device; a first means for charging the first electrical storage device in accordance with engine rpm pulses; a second electrical storage device having a charge to provide an alteration signal; a second means for charging the second electrical storage device in accordance with engine rpm pulses; wherein the alteration signal is dependent on the charge of the first electrical storage device during predetermined time intervals and according to pre-determined functions; and further wherein the pulses of the first charging means are phase-shifted with respect to the pulses of the second charging means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 116 words
Apparatus for correcting a fuel apportionment signal in an internal combustion engine during a change in required fuel quantity including: a first electrical storage device; a first means for charging the first electrical storage device in accordance with engine rpm pulses; a second electrical storage device having a charge to provide an alteration signal; a second means for charging the second electrical storage device in accordance with engine rpm pulses; wherein the alteration signal is dependent on the charge of the first electrical storage device during predetermined time intervals and according to pre-determined functions; and further wherein the pulses of the first charging means are phase-shifted with respect to the pulses of the second charging means.
