Device to control transverse inclination of vehicle during travel round curve has devices to detect vehicle speed/steering angle, to calculate curve radius therefrom and to calculate setpoint inclination suppression parameter

摘要

A device to control the transverse inclination of a vehicle (12) during travel round a curve is described. The vehicle has a body, a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels (10), a steering system (14-18) and a brake system (22,24) to brake each wheel of at least one wheel pair independently of the other wheel in the wheel pair concerned. There is: a device (32) to detect the vehicle speed; a device (34) to detect the steering angle of the steering system; a device to calculate the curve radius of the curve according to at least the steering angle detected by the angle detection device and the vehicle speed detected by the speed detection device; a device to calculate a setpoint inclination suppression parameter so that it indicates the priority of a transverse inclination suppression control unit; a device to calculate a setpoint vehicle deceleration and a setpoint vehicle yaw torque; etc
