Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to an acceleration slip control device, wherein the control quantity for the throttle valve angle operation is determined not only in response to the slip condition but also to the output torque changeability of the internal combustion engine with regard to the throttle valve angle displacement, therefore the output torque of the engine can be effectively restrained to the optimum value counteractive to the slip condition of the driving wheels.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
128 words
A control system for preventing a slip comprising: slip detection means for detecting a driving wheel speed and providing a first signal corresponding thereto and for determining whether or not said slip occurs based on said first signal; engine intake air volume estimation means for estimating an intake air volume of an internal combustion engine and providing a second signal corresponding thereto; desired engine output determination means, receiving said first and second signals when said slip occurs for determining a desired engine output in response to at least said first signal and modifying said desired engine output in response to said second signal; and engine output control means responsive to said desired engine output determination means for controlling an engine output to approach said modified desired engine output.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
128 words
A control system for preventing a slip comprising: slip detection means for detecting a driving wheel speed and providing a first signal corresponding thereto and for determining whether or not said slip occurs based on said first signal; engine intake air volume estimation means for estimating an intake air volume of an internal combustion engine and providing a second signal corresponding thereto; desired engine output determination means, receiving said first and second signals when said slip occurs for determining a desired engine output in response to at least said first signal and modifying said desired engine output in response to said second signal; and engine output control means responsive to said desired engine output determination means for controlling an engine output to approach said modified desired engine output.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
68 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 1, wherein said engine intake air volume estimation means includes: engine speed detection means for detecting an engine speed and providing a third signal corresponding thereto; engine load detection means for detecting an engine load and providing a fourth signal corresponding thereto; and means for estimating said intake air volume in response to said third and fourth signals.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
72 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 1, wherein said engine intake air volume estimation means includes: means for detecting a shift position of a transmission and a vehicle speed and providing a fifth signal corresponding thereto; engine load detection means for detecting an engine load and providing a sixth signal corresponding thereto; and means for estimating said intake air volume in response to said fifth and sixth signals.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 2, wherein a throttle position of a throttle valve member is used to detect said engine load.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 2, wherein a negative pressure of an intake manifold is used to detect said engine load.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
38 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 1, wherein said engine output control means includes a throttle valve member adapted to be coupled in an intake passage of said engine for controlling said engine output.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
29 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 6, wherein said modified desired engine output is used to determine an optimum position of said throttle valve member.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
31 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 6, wherein said modified desired engine output is used to determine an optimum rotary velocity speed of said throttle valve member.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
23 words
A control system for preventing a slip according to claim 1, wherein a driving wheel acceleration speed is used to determine said slip.
