An engine controlling device includes an operating circuit (3) supplied with output signal of a knocking sensor (1) to generate a control signal which is used to effect an optimum control of at least one of ignition timing, exhaust gas recirculation flow rate, fuel injection quantity and fuel injection timing, to optimize combustion state of the engine. The device is further provided with an acceleration detector (5) whose output signal is supplied to the operating circuit (3) to generate a forced control signal during the accelerating condition of the engine regardless of the control signal derived from the knocking sensor (1). The forced control signal is used to control at least one of the above-mentioned control variables, and eliminates adverse influence of delay time in the control device to enable optimization of the combustion state even during a sudden acceleration.

An engine controlling device comprising in combination: knocking detecting means which detects pressure variation in a combustion chamber of the engine or vibration resulting from the pressure variation, and discriminates a knocking state; operating and controlling means responsive to said knocking detecting means and adapted to generate a feed-back control output signal for controlling at least one operational parameter of the engine, which is influential in occurrence of the knocking, such that the knocking state is optimized; said feed-back control signal having a level which decreases at a predetermined rate when said operating and controlling means is supplied by said knocking detecting means with a knocking signal indicating an occurrence of knocking, and which increases at a rate lower than said decreasing rate when said operating and controlling means is not supplied with said knocking signal; and means for detecting a transitional driving condition of the engine and for controlling said operating and controlling means during the transitional driving condition such that the operating and controlling means generates a forced control output signal regardless of said feed-back control output signal derived from the knocking state, said forced control output signal controlling said at least one operational parameter of the engine, in the direction in which the knocking state is avoided so that a weak knocking state is maintained.
