Title:
CONTROL DEVICE FOR SPARK-IGNITION-TYPE INTERNAL-COMBUSTION ENGINE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/065659
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention mitigates or eliminates the problem of uncombusted fuel being exhausted outside of a cylinder in cases when combustion of the air-fuel mixture in a combustion chamber has been inadequate. High voltage is applied to a spark plug via a spark coil, igniting the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber with a spark discharge generated by the spark plug. When a worsening of combustion conditions is detected during the expansion stage caused by combustion, a microwave electric field is generated in the combustion chamber during the final period of the expansion stage before the exhaust valve opening timing, causing plasma to be generated and grow in the combustion chamber.
