    摘要: In a reaction torque calculation process, an electronic control unit included in a steer-by-wire steering device is configured to calculate a distributed axial force obtained by distributing an angle axial force and an electric current axial force based on a final distribution ratio. The reaction torque calculation process includes at least one of a first abnormal-time process and a second abnormal-time process. The first abnormal-time process is executed to hold, for calculation of the angle axial force, a vehicle speed signal value immediately before the vehicle speed signal becomes abnormal. The second abnormal-time process is executed to hold, for calculation of a normal-time distribution ratio, a vehicle speed signal value immediately before the vehicle speed signal becomes abnormal or hold a value of the normal-time distribution ratio immediately before the vehicle speed signal becomes abnormal, and then gradually change the final distribution ratio to an abnormal-time distribution ratio.

    摘要: The steering control system of a steer-by-wire vehicle includes a turning angle calculation unit for calculating a target turning angle based on a steering angle of a steering wheel, and a reaction torque calculation unit for calculating a target reaction torque based on a state of the vehicle. When an alert request is issued, the reaction torque calculation unit calculates a basic reaction torque based on the steering angle, calculates an alert reaction torque for notifying a vehicle state, and calculates the target reaction torque obtained by summing the basic reaction torque and the alert reaction torque. In a process of calculating the target turning angle from the steering angle, the turning angle calculation unit calculates the target turning angle by excluding a steering angle or a turning angle corresponding to the alert reaction torque.

    摘要: A steering device includes: a mechanism configured to turn turning wheels of a vehicle; a motor configured to generate drive force that is applied to the mechanism; and a controller configured to control the motor in accordance with a steering state. The controller includes a determination circuit configured to determine whether or not one of the turning wheels is in contact with an obstacle based on at least a value of electric current that is supplied to the motor and a vehicle speed. The controller is configured to, when one of the turning wheels is in contact with the obstacle, notify a driver that one of the turning wheels is in contact with the obstacle.

    摘要: A steering control device includes a base axial force calculator, a limiting axial force calculator, and a final axial force calculator. The limiting axial force calculator includes a steering angle holder, a reference angle calculator, a final difference calculator, and an axial force calculator. The steering angle holder is configured to hold a steering angle at the time of limiting a turning operation of the turning wheels when the turning operation is limited. The reference angle calculator is configured to calculate a reference angle. The final difference calculator is configured to calculate a final difference which is a final difference between the reference angle and the current steering angle. The axial force calculator is configured to calculate a limiting axial force based on a value of the final difference.

    摘要: In a controller for a steering device, the steering device includes a structure where motive power transmission between a steering unit and a turning unit is separated. The controller includes a control circuit configured to control operation of a steering-side motor that is provided in the steering unit to give steering reaction force that is force against the steering input into the steering unit. In a case where turning of the turning wheels to one direction is restricted, the control circuit is configured to calculate restriction reaction force for restricting steering that is to turn the turning wheels to the one direction. The control circuit is configured to calculate the restriction reaction force based on information on the steering unit.

    摘要: A steering control device includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit controls operation of a steering-side motor so as to apply a steering reaction force that resists a steering operation input to the steering wheel. The electronic control unit computes an obstruction strike reaction force for regulating a steering operation that steers a steered wheel toward an obstruction. The electronic control unit generates determination information indicating that the steered wheel is struck by an obstruction. The determination information includes first determination information indicating that the left side of the steered wheel is struck by an obstruction, and second determination information indicating that the right side of the steered wheel is struck by an obstruction. The electronic control unit sets a direction in which the obstruction strike reaction force is applied based on the generated determination information.

    摘要: A vehicle control device includes a control unit configured to execute one of a plurality of assist controls based on an input of an execution command signal that is externally given. The control unit includes a control state switching unit that executes, based on an input state of the execution command signal, switching of a control state to execute the assist control. The control state includes a first control state and a second control state, the control state being switched from one of the first and second control states to the other of the first and second control states based on the input state of the execution command signal. When one control state of the first and second control states is being executed and when execution of the other control state is commanded, the control state switching unit switches the control state such that the other control state is executed.
