Torque controlling apparatus for internal combustion engine
First Claim
1. A torque controlling apparatus for an internal combustion engine, comprising:
- an electric machinery for absorbing torque from said internal combustion engine and/or for imparting torque to said internal combustion engine;
memory means for storing, in advance, waveform characteristics of torque deviation generated by said internal combustion engine in the respective operative conditions of said internal combustion engine;
detecting means for detecting an operative condition of said internal combustion engine; and
controlling means for reading out said waveform characteristics of torque deviations from said memory means in correspondence with the detected operative condition of said internal combustion engine detected by said detecting means, and for controlling said electric machinery on the basis of the read-out waveform characteristics to absorb torque from said internal combustion engine and/or impart torque to said internal combustion engine, thereby reducing said deviation of torque.

Abstract
A torque controlling apparatus for an internal combustion engine comprises an electric machinery for absorbing torque from the internal combustion engine and/or for imparting torque to the internal combustion engine; a memory unit for storing, in advance, waveform characteristics of torque deviation generated by the engine in the respective operative conditions of the engine; a detector for detecting an operative condition of the engine; and a control unit. The control unit reads out the waveform characteristics of torque deviation, from the memory unit, corresponding to the detected operative conditions of the engine detected by the detector. The control unit controls the electric machinery to generate countertorque on the basis of the read-out waveform characteristics to cancel the torque deviation.
