It is to determine whether an error has occurred.
- the intake air amount feedback control is performed, the intake fresh air amount related to the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust fluctuates. Further, when the exhaust air-fuel ratio feedback control is being performed, the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust fluctuates. For this reason, in the first operating state or the second operating state, the abnormality that has occurred in one item is canceled out, and it may be difficult to identify which item has the abnormality.

- the feedback control by the intake air amount feedback control means is performed, the feedback control by the fuel addition amount feedback control means is not performed, and the internal combustion engine sets a target lean air-fuel ratio.
- the engine is operated as a lean exhaust gas temperature difference, it is determined whether the difference between the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature sensor and the reference exhaust gas temperature at this time is equal to or greater than a second predetermined value.
- the difference between the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature sensor when the feedback control is being performed by the exhaust gas control means and the reference exhaust gas temperature at this time is equal to or greater than a third predetermined value.

- the difference between the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor and the reference lean air-fuel ratio is equal to or greater than a predetermined value.
- the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor similarly changes.Therefore, is there any abnormality in the air-fuel ratio sensor using only the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor? It is difficult to distinguish whether there is an abnormality in the intake air amount detection device or the fuel injection valve.
- the air-fuel ratio sensor is abnormal, the difference between the detected value of the exhaust temperature sensor at the reference lean air-fuel ratio and the reference value at this time (hereinafter referred to as the reference exhaust temperature). Is less than a predetermined value. That is, when there is an abnormality in the fuel injection valve, the temperature of the exhaust gas changes due to an increase or decrease in the fuel injection amount. On the other hand, when there is an abnormality in the intake air amount detection device, feedback of the intake air amount is performed. The temperature of the exhaust gas changes as the intake air volume changes. Therefore, in any case, the detection value of the exhaust temperature sensor changes, and the difference from the reference exhaust temperature increases.
- the air-fuel ratio sensor when the air-fuel ratio sensor is abnormal, the actual exhaust air-fuel ratio does not change and the feedback control based on the exhaust air-fuel ratio is not performed. There is no change and there is almost no difference from the reference exhaust temperature. Thereby, it is possible to determine the abnormality of the air-fuel ratio sensor.

For example, the accelerator opening is changed so as to generate the output required for the internal combustion engine, and the increase or decrease of the fuel is increased. Done. Since the reference value of the sensor or the like is determined based on the amount of fuel to be injected from the fuel injection valve, the reference value of the sensor or the like changes as the amount of fuel to be injected increases or decreases.
- the amount of fuel actually injected from the fuel injection valve is different from the case where no abnormality has occurred in the fuel injection valve, and the value detected by the air-fuel ratio sensor by the change in the reference value of the sensor etc. Varies from the reference value. Further, the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature sensor changes from the reference exhaust gas temperature by an amount corresponding to the change in the fuel amount.
- the fuel addition amount feedback control of the fuel addition amount is performed by the fuel addition amount feedback control means to obtain a reference rich air-fuel ratio.
- the new air amount is controlled to be the target amount by the back control means, it is possible to specify whether an abnormality has occurred in any of the devices. That is, when an abnormality has occurred in the intake air amount detection device, the EGR gas amount is changed by the intake air amount feedback control means so that the intake air amount becomes the target value. Changes. Therefore, since the temperature of the exhaust gas changes from the reference value, the difference between the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature detecting means and the reference exhaust gas temperature increases.
- the output of the internal combustion engine changes, so that, for example, the accelerator opening is set so as to generate the output required for the internal combustion engine. Is changed to increase or decrease the fuel.
- the feedback of the fuel addition amount is performed by the fuel addition amount feedback control means, the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas is appropriate, and at this time, the intake fresh air amount does not change. Therefore, even if an abnormality occurs in the fuel injection valve, the output value of the exhaust gas temperature sensor becomes substantially equal to the reference value at this time.
- the fuel addition amount feedback control of the fuel addition amount is performed by the fuel addition amount feedback control means to obtain a reference rich air-fuel ratio, and further, the intake air amount feedback is provided. If the difference between the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature sensor and the reference exhaust gas temperature is less than a predetermined value when the control unit controls the fresh air volume to be the target gas amount, the fuel addition valve is abnormal. Can be identified as having occurred. On the other hand, when the difference between the exhaust gas temperature detected by the exhaust gas temperature sensor and the reference exhaust gas temperature is equal to or more than a predetermined value, it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the intake air amount detection device.
- the lean air-fuel ratio difference calculating means determines that the difference between the air-fuel ratio detected by the air-fuel ratio sensor and the reference lean air-fuel ratio is equal to or greater than a first predetermined value, and the exhaust gas temperature sensor If the lean exhaust temperature difference calculating means determines that the difference between the detected exhaust gas temperature and the reference exhaust temperature at this time is equal to or greater than a second predetermined value, the air-fuel ratio sensor and the Fuel may be added to the exhaust passage upstream of the exhaust temperature sensor.

However, since the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 may change due to aging or failure, it is necessary to determine whether the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas obtained by the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 is accurate. .
- the determination as to whether or not the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 is abnormal can be made by detecting the air-fuel ratio during the rich spike control. That is, the target air-fuel ratio obtained from the fuel addition amount from the fuel addition valve 16 and the intake air amount of the internal combustion engine 1 is compared with the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas obtained by the air-fuel ratio sensor 9. Thus, the abnormality of the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 can be determined.

- the abnormality of the upstream side air-fuel ratio sensor 18 may be detected. Further, an abnormality of the upstream side exhaust temperature sensor 17 may be detected instead of the exhaust temperature sensor 8.
- Example 2 In the present embodiment, as a result of performing the abnormality detection by two different methods, when an abnormality is detected in both the abnormality detections, it is determined that the abnormality is truly occurring.
- the other hardware is the same as in the first embodiment, and the description is omitted.
- the abnormality detection described in the first embodiment is performed for each of the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 and the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor 18.
- a difference between the output value of the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 and the output value of the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor 18 in a specific operating state is determined, and the difference is determined as a predetermined abnormality. It is determined whether the value is equal to or greater than the value indicating. Then, in the second abnormality detection method, when this difference is equal to or larger than a value indicating a predetermined abnormality, it is determined that an abnormality has occurred in any of the sensors.
- the second abnormality detection method detects that any of the sensors has an abnormality
- the sensor that is abnormal by the first abnormality detection method has a true abnormality. And In other words, it is not clear whether an abnormality is truly occurring except in the case where an abnormality is detected in both abnormality detection methods.

That is, if the difference between the air-fuel ratio obtained from the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 and the air-fuel ratio obtained from the upstream air-fuel ratio sensor 18 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, it is determined that one of the sensors is abnormal. be able to. This means that when an abnormality occurs in the air-fuel ratio sensor, This is because it is rare that an abnormality occurs simultaneously in the ratio sensor.

It is desirable that the state is not performed. That is, when the exhaust gas of the rich air-fuel ratio passes through the NOx catalyst, the NOx and oxygen stored in the NOx catalyst are released, and the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas downstream of the filter becomes close to the stoichiometric ratio and the air-fuel ratio This is because the sensor 9 is affected by this. Further, when the exhaust gas with a rich air-fuel ratio passes through the NOx catalyst, the fuel reacts in the NOx catalyst, and the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 may be affected by the fuel.
- the determination that the sensor is abnormal is determined only when it is determined that an error has occurred in one of the sensors.
- the abnormality determination described in the first embodiment is performed for each of the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 and the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor 18, and when only one air-fuel ratio sensor is determined to be abnormal, the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 is activated. If it is determined that the air-fuel ratio sensor 9 is abnormal and it is determined that the plurality of air-fuel ratio sensors 9 are abnormal, the abnormality determination may be performed again. As described above, the accuracy of the abnormality determination can be improved by performing the abnormality determination again.
- the present invention can be similarly applied to the detection of an abnormality of the exhaust gas temperature sensor instead.
- the “specific operation state” in the abnormality detection of the exhaust gas temperature sensor 8 and the upstream side exhaust gas temperature sensor 17 is such that the air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas is lean and the fuel addition valve 1 that reduces the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas is used.
- Fuel from 6 It is desirable that the fuel injection valve 3 does not perform addition or sub injection by the fuel injection valve 3. That is, when the exhaust gas with a rich air-fuel ratio passes through the NOx catalyst, the fuel reacts in the NOx catalyst to increase the temperature of the exhaust gas, and the exhaust gas temperature sensor 8 may be affected by this.
