This paper investigates the problem of event-triggered adaptive control for a class of nonlinear systems subject to asymmetric input saturation and time-varying partial state constraints. To facilitate analyzing the influence of asymmetric input saturation, the saturation function is converted into a linear form with respect to control input. To achieve the objective that partial states do not exceed the constraints, a more general form of Lyapunov function is offered. Different from some existing results about output/full state constraints, the proposed scheme only requires that the partial states satisfy the time-varying constraints. Moreover, an event-triggered scheme with a varying threshold is designed to reduce the communication burden. With the time-varying asymmetric barrier Lyapunov functions, a novel event-triggered control scheme is developed, which ensures that partial states are without violation of required constraints and the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin despite appearing as saturated phenomenon. Eventually, the theoretic results are confirmed by two examples.
