    Abstract: A hydrostatic power steering system including an electric motor is provided for a automotive vehicle. The hydrostatic power steering system utilizes a power steering piston responsive to movement of the rack element of the rack and pinion steering connection. The power steering piston is provided in a piston chamber divided by a valve land into first and second portions, each of which are connected to first and second hydraulic lines. A torque sensor is connected to the steering shaft for providing an output torque signal to a power steering controller. The electric motor of the system is responsive to a command signal generated by the power steering controller. An electrically operated valve is connected to the hydraulic lines and is adapted to receive a signal from the power steering controller for controlling flow of hydraulic fluid to the power steering chamber. The electrically operated valve arrangement is rendered inoperative within a predetermined zone defined by the command signal and the output torque signal.

    Abstract: Steering and braking are coordinated and controlled according to a sensed yaw rate error or lateral acceleration error to increase vehicle stability without increasing braking distance. A desired yaw rate or lateral acceleration rate is computed from the vehicle velocity and the steering wheel angle. If the yaw rate or the lateral acceleration is excessive, indicating instability, and the brakes are being operated, then both steering and braking are controlled to reduce the yaw rate or lateral acceleration rate. In all other cases, steering control alone is performed. The yaw rate or lateral acceleration rate is reduced under steering control by adjusting wheel positions in a direction opposite the direction of yaw or lateral acceleration. The control system of the present invention is applicable to both two-wheel and four-wheel steering and braking. The yaw rate or lateral acceleration is further reduced under braking control by decreasing brake pressure on a side of the vehicle corresponding to the direction of yaw or lateral acceleration and increasing brake pressure on the opposite side of the vehicle. In the case of anti-lock brakes, pressure is not increased beyond a slip rate threshold. Rather than controlling brake pressure, the slip rate threshold itself may be controlled in like manner to reduce the yaw rate or lateral acceleration.

    Abstract: The steering stability of a moving vehicle is maintained by measuring an actual yaw rate of the vehicle and determining a desired yaw rate of the vehicle. An output signal is produced in response to a comparison of the actual and desired yaw rates. The angle of steerable wheels of the vehicle is controlled in response to the output signal in a manner tending to substantially conform the actual yaw rate to the desired yaw rate, thereby maintaining vehicle stability. The steerable wheels are steered by a steering wheel, and are independently steered in response to the output signal. Alternatively, the steerable wheels are steered solely in response to the output signal.

    Abstract: Based on a difference between target and actual values of a friction member force pressing a brake disc, feedback control over the pressing force is executed. As the actual value, a “limit pressing force (Fbs) obtained by placing a limitation on a temporal change amount of the Fba based on a limit value (Lmt)” is used. The limit value (Lmt) is set based on an electric motor speed (dMkt, dMka), a wheel speed (Vwa), and a temporal change amount (ΔTmp) of the friction member temperature. The Lmt is set to increase as the dMkt (dMka) increases and the temporal change amount (ΔTmp) of the temperature increases, and to also increase as the wheel speed (Vwa) decreases. Thus, even when a rotating member (brake disc) is deformed, braking torque control can be appropriately executed without accelerating a fluctuation of a braking torque on the wheel.
