Arrangement for avoiding overturning during motor vehicle braking, includes an inclinometer for determining vehicle inclination for use in determining likelihood of overturning

摘要

Arrangement in which a motor vehicle has means for reducing braking force applied to at least one wheel during braking if overturning is likely. Overturning likelihood is determined using means for determining the inclination angle ( eta ) of the vehicle. Also considered are vehicle mass, center of gravity, speed, acceleration and direction. An Independent claim is made for a method for preventing vehicle overturning during braking.
