Abstract:
A method for controlling valve timing of an engine may include: classifying control regions; applying a maximum duration to an intake valve and controlling a valve overlap in a first control region; applying the maximum duration to the intake valve and an exhaust valve in a second control region; controlling a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) of an intake manifold to be maintained constant in a third control region; controlling a wide open throttle valve (WOT) and creating a valve overlap by reducing interference of exhaust in a fourth control region; and controlling a wide open throttle valve (WOT) and controlling an intake valve closing timing based on the engine speed. In particular, the control regions are classified by a controller based on an engine load and an engine speed compared with predetermined values, respectively.

A continuous variable valve duration apparatus includes a camshaft. A slider, which is mounted to the camshaft, has a camshaft sliding key and a cam portion of which a cam and a cam sliding key are formed thereto. The camshaft is inserted into the cam portion, and a relative phase between the cam and the camshaft is variable. A roller ring is connected with the camshaft sliding key and the cam sliding key. The roller ring is rotatably inserted into a roller ring guider, and the roller ring guider slidably inserted into a cylinder head. A control portion selectively changes a position of the roller ring guider to control a rotation center position of the roller ring.
Abstract:
A control device for an internal combustion engine includes a controller. The controller controls the relative rotation phase of the exhaust camshaft in accordance with the relative rotation phase of the intake camshaft. When a request for locking the relative rotation phase of the intake camshaft at an intermediate phase is generated, the controller controls the relative rotation phase of the exhaust camshaft such that the relative rotation phase of the exhaust camshaft is changed to a phase corresponding to the intermediate phase independently from the relative rotation phase of the intake camshaft.
