Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0838583A1] The apparatus comprises a controller to monitor vibration of the engine during certain phases of it cycle. A vibration detector (2) delivers a signal to a signal processing circuit (5). A time controller (6) establishes time windows for passage of the vibration signal corresponding to the operating cycle of the engine. A set of characteristics are established for the engine by dividing the amplitude of the vibrations by a reference value delivered by a computer (10). The value is the smallest moving average of vibrations measured from each cylinder. When a measured signal moves too far from the reference a look up table is consulted to determine how many revolutions of the engine are permitted, and the engine cut if this number is exceeded.
