摘要:
A suspension controller includes a target current setting unit (631A), a current limitation setting unit (632A), a current outputting unit (635A), a current detector (633A), and an estimated temperature calculator (636A). The target current setting unit (631A) sets a target current value. The current limitation setting unit (632A) sets a current limitation value. The current outputting unit (635A) supplies a solenoid (51A) with a current that is based on the target current value, the current limitation value, and a power supply voltage. The solenoid (51A) controls a damping force of a suspension. The current detector (633A) detects a current value of the current supplied to the solenoid (51A). The estimated temperature calculator (636A) calculates an estimated temperature of the solenoid (51A) based on the current value detected by the current detector (633A) so that the current limitation setting unit (632A) changes the current limitation value based on the estimated temperature.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for level control in a motor vehicle, wherein a predetermined vehicle ride height can be adjusted by activating at least one actuator. According to the invention, the actuator is activated as a function of a first operating parameter which correlates with the electrical state of the on-board electrical system, and as a function of a second operating parameter which represents the vehicle ride height.
摘要:
A rear axle (10) which supports rear wheels (11) is attached to the body of a vehicle in such a way as to be swingable up and down around a center pin (10a). A controller (29) detects the running state from detection values θ and V of a sensor (21) for detecting the tire angle of the rear wheels and a sensor (22) for detecting a vehicle speed, and detects the load state from detection values H and w of a height sensor (27) and a pressure sensor (28). When a determination value derived from the detection values θ and V becomes equal to or greater than a set value which is determined in accordance with the detection values H and w, an electromagnetic changeover valve (14) of a dumper (13) is switched to carry out control to lock the rear axle. When a sensor is diagnoses as failing, maximum values θmax and Vmax or the like are selected as most severe detection values. Even one of a set of sensors fails, therefore, the rear axle will not be locked as long as the vehicle runs in such a way that the detection value of the other sensor allows the determination value to be smaller than the set value.
摘要:
A sprung structure is provided with an acceleration computing section. A damping force estimating section (16) of a relative velocity estimating section (12) estimates a damping force by reading information from a damping force characteristic storing section (14) in accordance with a valve opening degree instruction and the relative velocity between sprung and unsprung structures estimated in the last control cycle. An estimating and computing section 18 estimates the relative velocity between sprung and unsprung structures in accordance with the above acceleration and estimated damping force. A suspension system is controlled in accordance with the relative velocity.
摘要:
A vehicle air suspension can be controlled between a Standard setting of ride height and a lower, Kneel, setting. Movement to or from the Kneel setting is frozen if a door is opened or if the footbrake is applied. Alteration to the Kneel setting is prevented except when the vehicle is stationary. The suspension reverts to the Standard ride height if the vehicle is driven off or the handbrake is released. Movement of the suspension to or from a lower or higher setting is carried out sequentially to prevent headlamp dazzle. If the vehicle becomes partly supported by direct contact between the chassis and the ground (belly-out) this is detected by monitoring signals to ride height control valves and by providing a controlled re-inflation and balancing of the air springs.
