CAR BODY TILT CONTROL DEVICE AND CAR BODY TILT CONTROL METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve operability by suppressing variation in steering reaction force due to a camber thrust.;SOLUTION: A car body is tilted inward within turning along a roll direction during a turning travel by setting a target tilt angle φ^* when the car body is tilted inward within the turning along the roll direction during the turning travel according to a steering angle θs of a driver and bringing a tilt motor 3 under driving control according to the target tilt angle φ^*. Assist torque Ta when assist torque is given to a steering mechanism during steering operation by the driver is set according to steering torque Ts of the driver, and the assist torque Ta is corrected a camber thrust Fc developed by front wheels 1FL and 1FR accompanying the driving control over the tilt motor 3. Then an assist motor 38 is brought under driving control according to the corrected assist torque Ta to impart the assist torque to a steering mechanism during the steering operation by the driver.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT
