In the process, an air mass flow supplied to the internal combustion engine is influenced via the actuator in an air supply. For the setting of an actuating position of the actuator having a specified, e.g., minimum, air mass flow, starting from a specified actuating position, the actuator is moved by an offset value of the actuating position. The offset value of the actuating position is corrected as a function of an offset value for the air mass flow. | 07-16-2009 |
20100286844 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DIAGNOSING A POSITION ENCODER - A method for determining a mixup in the terminals of a position encoder having a position encoder motor, which is bidirectionally drivable via a plurality of terminals, so that a mixup of at least two of the terminals of the position encoder motor leads to a reversal in the actuation direction of the position encoder, having the following steps of setting an actuating element of the position encoder to a zero setting, from which a motion of the actuating element is possible in one or two directions; driving the position encoder motor according to a diagnostic variable, which is selected so that, based on the actuation using the diagnostic variable, in the case of a non-mixup of the terminals and in the case of a mixup of the terminals, different absolute values of the changes are to be expected in the changes of the actuation position of the actuating element; recording a current change in the actuation position of the actuating element that comes about by the driving of the position encoder motor; establishing a mixup of at least two of the terminals, if the absolute value of the current change of the actuation position of the actuating element deviates from the absolute value of the change in the actuation position that is to be expected. | 11-11-2010 |
20130075640 | LEARNING MECHANICAL STOPS IN A NON-RIGID INTERMEDIATE GEAR - A method for determining information regarding a final position of an element of a gear, in particular a drive gear wheel, the information regarding the final position representing a stop position of a throttle valve at a mechanical stop, includes moving the element from a starting position in the direction of the final position, until the element comes to a standstill despite a specified supply of drive energy; determining information regarding the position of the element at standstill despite the supply of drive energy; and determining the information regarding the final position in that information of a correction distance is applied to the information regarding the position of the element, in particular subtracted, counter to the direction of the final position at standstill despite the supply of drive energy. | 03-28-2013 |
20140034000 | Method for determining a phase position of an adjustable camshaft - A method for determining a phase position of an adjustable camshaft of an internal combustion engine having a sensor wheel and a camshaft adjuster. The phase position of the camshaft is determined on the basis of phase flank interrupts triggered by the sensor wheel and a model which depends on at least one performance characteristic of the camshaft adjuster. | 02-06-2014 |
