Apparatus for regulating the idling rpm of internal combustion engines
First Claim
1. An apparatus for regulating the idling rpm of internal combustion engines whose rpm is controlled by a throttle means disposed in the intake tube, comprising:
- an electromagnetically actuatable adjustment member for establishing the aspirated air quantity in the idling position of said throttle means,means providing an actual rpm value,means providing a desired idling rpm value,means at least temperature responsive providing an rpm set-point value dependent on said desired idling rpm value and said actual rpm value, wherein said rpm set-point value is selected in accordance with said actual rpm value whenever an rpm threshold of approximately 100 revolutions per minute above a stationary set-point value has been attained, and the retraction of the normal value occurs in accordance with a selectable function,a comparison means for said set-point rpm and actual rpm values, anda subsequent regulator means connected to the output of said comparison means including means for processing at least one of proportional, integral, and differential functions of said output of said comparison means for controlling said adjustment member.

Abstract
An apparatus is proposed for regulating the idling rpm of internal combustion engines with externally supplied ignition. The apparatus includes a comparison circuit for set-point and actual rpm, and the idling rpm set-point value can be influenced in accordance with the actual rpm, time, operating voltage, temperature, and other variables as needed. The actual regulation is effected by means of a PID-regulator, whose individual characteristics may be established for processing data as desired, preferably in accordance with the rpm deviation. A limitation regulator furthermore serves to establish the respective maximum and/or minimum limitation of the adjustment member in accordance with operating characteristics.
