Development of a Roller-Type Sideslip Tester (Performance Test with Real Automobiles)

摘要

We have developed a roller-type sideslip tester. The developed tester is examined under the conditions that are considered in an industrial application. We have investigated the influence of toe angle, camber angle, size of tire, pressure of tire, coefficient of friction between tire and roller. pressing power of tire, revolution velocity of roller, axle load and so on. The validity of the developed tester is confirmed under these conditions. It Was found that it could be used in practical use. Some measurement results are presented in the form of parametric plots and tables. And we have also compared the measurement data of the roller-type with those of the flat type using several automobiles.
