In a device for controlling idling stop of an engine in which the idling stop is carried out when a temperature of the engine that is about to be stopped by the idling stop is higher than a threshold value, when the start improvement device does not function normally, the idling stop is prohibited r
In a device for controlling idling stop of an engine in which the idling stop is carried out when a temperature of the engine that is about to be stopped by the idling stop is higher than a threshold value, when the start improvement device does not function normally, the idling stop is prohibited regardless of engine temperature. Thus, the problem in which the engine cannot be restarted satisfactorily does not occur.

1. A vehicle, comprising: an internal combustion engine;a glow plug for heating the intake air of the engine; anda controller programmed to control idling stop of the engine when a temperature of the engine that is about to be stopped by the idling stop is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted, the controller further programmed to control the glow plug,wherein when the glow plug does not function normally, the threshold value is increased by a set temperature, such that the increased threshold value is the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted when the glow plug does not function. 2. A vehicle according to claim 1, wherein when the glow plug does not function normally, if a degree of the abnormal condition of the glow plug is large, the threshold value is increased by the set temperature, and if the degree of the abnormal condition is small, a start improvement device, different from and used in conjunction with the glow plug, is operated when the engine stopped by the idling stop is restarted. 3. A vehicle according to claim 1, wherein it is determined that the glow plug does not function normally when a detected duty ratio of an alternator generation set is less than a set value. 4. A vehicle according to claim 2, wherein it is determined that the glow plug does not function normally when a detected duty ratio of an alternator generation set is less than a set value. 5. A vehicle, comprising: an internal combustion engine;a variable valve timing mechanism utilized for heating the intake air by delaying opening of an engine intake valve;a controller programmed to control idling stop of the engine when a temperature of the engine that is about to be stopped by the idling stop is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted, the controller further programmed to control the variable valve timing mechanism,wherein when the variable valve timing mechanism does not function normally, the threshold value is increased by a set temperature, such that the increased threshold value is the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted when the variable valve timing mechanism does not function. 6. A method of controlling idling stop of an internal combustion engine, comprising: providing a glow plug for an internal combustion engine, wherein the glow plug heats intake air for the internal combustion engine under a normal operation;providing a controller for controlling idling stop of the engine;stopping the engine when a temperature of the engine is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted; andprohibiting idling stop of the engine, regardless of the engine temperature, when the glow plug does not function normally. 7. A method of controlling idling stop of an internal combustion engine, comprising: providing a glow plug for an internal combustion engine, wherein the glow plug heats intake air for the internal combustion engine under a normal operation;providing a controller for controlling idling stop of the engine;stopping the engine when a temperature of the engine is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted; andincreasing the threshold value by a set temperature when the glow plug does not function normally, such that the increased threshold value is the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted when the glow plug does not function. 8. The method according to claim 7, further comprising detecting a duty ratio of an alternator generation set. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein it is determined that the glow plug does not function normally when the detected duty ratio of the alternator generation set is less than a set value. 10. The method according to claim 6, further comprising: providing a variable valve timing mechanism for heating intake air for the internal combustion engine by delaying opening of an engine intake valve,wherein, when a degree of the abnormal condition of the glow plug is small, the variable valve timing mechanism heats the intake air to compensate for the lessened heating caused by the abnormal condition in the glow plug. 11. The method according to claim 7, further comprising: providing a variable valve timing mechanism for heating intake air for the internal combustion engine by delaying opening of an engine intake valve,wherein, when a degree of the abnormal condition of the glow plug is small, the variable valve timing mechanism heats the intake air to compensate for the lessened heating caused by the abnormal condition in the glow plug. 12. A method of controlling idling stop of an internal combustion engine, comprising: providing a variable valve timing mechanism for an internal combustion engine, wherein the variable valve timing mechanism heats intake air for the internal combustion engine under a normal operation by delaying opening of an engine intake valve;providing a controller for controlling idling stop of the engine;stopping the engine when a temperature of the engine is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted; andprohibiting idling stop of the engine, regardless of the engine temperature, when the variable valve timing mechanism does not function normally. 13. A method of controlling idling stop of an internal combustion engine, comprising: providing a variable valve timing mechanism for an internal combustion engine, wherein the variable valve timing mechanism heats intake air for the internal combustion engine under a normal operation by delaying opening of an engine intake valve;providing a controller for controlling idling stop of the engine;stopping the engine when a temperature of the engine is higher than a threshold value corresponding to the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted; andincreasing the threshold value by a set temperature when the variable valve timing mechanism does not function normally, such that the increased threshold value is the lowest temperature at which the engine can be restarted when the variable valve timing mechanism does not function.
