摘要:
In a traction control system, an initial engine torque for a traction control is selected from the following engine torques: an engine torque calculated from a throttle opening degree and an engine revolution-number; a required engine torque calculated from a total acceleration and a vehicle speed; and an engine torque corresponding to a road surface of an extremely low friction coefficient, depending upon a slipping state determined by comparing a driven wheel speed with slip reference values. When the driven wheel speed repeatedly exceeds the slip reference value, it is determined that a hunting has been generated, and the engine torque corresponding to the road surface of the extremely low friction coefficient is selected, and the engine torque is largely reduced. Thus, when the friction coefficient of the road surface is low, the driven wheel speed is prevented from hunting.

A yaw motion control device for a vehicle includes a steering angle sensor for detecting the steering angle of a steering wheel of the vehicle and a steering angle memory means operatively connected to the steering angle sensor for storing at least a previous value of the steering angle. A reference yaw rate generator generates a reference yaw rate in response to an input from the steering angle memory, and a yaw rate detector detects the yaw rate of the vehicle. Further, a yaw motion corrector controls the yaw motion of the vehicle in response to the outputs from the reference yaw rate generator means and the yaw rate detector. The yaw motion control device set forth above can also be employed with a vehicle speed detector for detecting the speed of the vehicle, and for outputting the vehicle speed to said reference yaw rate generator to provide greater accuracy in controlling the yaw motion of the vehicle.
摘要:
When a steady straight advancing state presuming device presumes that the vehicle is in a steady straight advancing state, and a slip rate calculating device calculates a small slip rate, based on an output from a driving-state detecting device, or when the steady straight advancing state presuming device presumes that the vehicle is in the steady straight advancing state, and a driven wheel torque calculating device calculates a small driven wheel torque, based on the output from the driving-state detecting device, a correction execution determining device determines that the vehicle is in a stable state suitable for correcting the wheel speed. By a command from the correction execution determining device, a correcting device corrects the driven wheel speed or the follower wheel speed based on a speed ratio of the driven wheel speed to the follower wheel speed calculated by a speed ratio calculating device. Thus, when a different-diameter tire has been mounted on a wheel, it is possible to precisely correct the wheel speed without being influenced by the slipping of the driven wheels or by the turning of the vehicle.

A technique to indicate a different-diameter wheel such as a temporary tire and to accurately correct the wheel speed of the different-diameter wheel is determined. Wheel speeds of a pair of left and right driven wheels are detected by wheel speed sensors and wheel speeds of a pair of left and right follower wheels are detected by wheel speed sensors. Yaw rates are calculated from the wheel speeds of the left and right wheels, and yaw rates are calculated from the wheel speeds of the wheels located diagonally. Which wheel of the four wheels is a different-diameter wheel is determined based on the magnitudes of the four yaw rates and the wheel speed of the different-diameter wheel is corrected based on a ratio in wheel speed between the different-diameter wheel and the other wheels.

A pneumatic tire pressure determining system on a motor vehicle detects an actual rotational speed difference between rotational speeds of front or rear left and right road wheels of the motor vehicle, detects an operating condition of the motor vehicle, and calculates an adequate rotational speed difference between rotational speeds of the front or rear left and right road wheels based on the detected operating condition of the motor vehicle. The system compares the adequate rotational speed difference and the actual rotational speed difference, and when the difference between the compared actual and adequate rotational speed differences exceeds a predetermined value, the system determines a pneumatic tire pressure reduction.

A first driving wheel torque reduction control quantity is set by a first setting element according to a slip condition of a driving wheel, and a second driving wheel torque reduction control quantity is set by a second setting element according to a yaw motion condition and a reference value of the yaw motion condition. Then, a driving wheel torque is reduced according to the first and second driving wheel torque reduction control quantities. In another aspect, a driving wheel slip reference value is corrected by a correction value to be set according to the yaw motion condition and the reference value of the yaw motion condition. Then, the slip condition is detected according to the driving wheel slip reference value corrected above.
摘要:
A control input for operating an actual vehicle actuator and a control input for operating a vehicle model are determined by an FB distribution law based on a difference between a reference state amount determined by a vehicle model and an actual state amount of an actual vehicle such that the state amount error is approximated to zero, and then an actuator device of the actual vehicle and the model vehicle are operated based on the control inputs. The FB distribution law determines a control input for operating the model such that a state amount error is approximated to zero while restraining a predetermined restriction object amount from deviating from a permissible range. A vehicle control device capable of enhancing robustness against disturbance factors or their changes while performing operation control of actuators that is as suited to behaviors of an actual vehicle as possible is provided.

Thus, this hydroplaning detecting system is capable of accurately detecting the generation of hydroplaning.
