METHOD FOR SUPPORTING AUTOMOBILE DRIVER DRIVING TRAILER DURING BACKWARD TRAVEL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify the reverse drive of an automobile having a trailer for a driver, and to improve backward travel irrespective of a predetermined reference isoclinal trajectory.;SOLUTION: In a method for supporting a driver of an automobile in the backward travel of a trailer, the automobile has an electronic-controlled servo-type steering device 1 having a steering wheel 2 for giving a steering wheel angle δ_S as a reference amount for a desired steering angle δ_Fm to at least one of steerable wheels 5a, 5b. During the backward travel, the steering angle δ_Fm to at least one of the steerable wheels 5a, 5b is continuously controlled from the steering wheel angle δ_S actually given as the reference signal considering a model to trailer drive, and adjusted irrespective of the driver by the steering device 1.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
