摘要:
A lookahead vehicle suspension system comprises a first independently adjustable suspension system associated with a front wheel; a second independently adjustable suspension system associated with a rear wheel; at least one detector configured to at least assist in delivering electrical signals relating to a front wheel roadway concern, the front wheel roadway concern relating to a roadway defect; and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to receive, in advance of the rear wheel encountering the roadway defect, both vehicle motion data and the electrical signals, and identify, based on the vehicle motion data and the electrical signals, adjustments with associated timing to be made to the second independently adjustable suspension system to accommodate the encounter of the rear wheel with the roadway defect.

A suspension assembly between a sprung element and an unsprung element includes a load-carrying spring and a negative stiffness element between the sprung element and the unsprung element. The load-carrying spring element is configured with a positive spring rate to support a static load of the sprung element. The negative stiffness element is configured with a negative spring rate and is configured to exert a force opposing the spring rate of the spring, the negative spring rate has a magnitude that cancels the positive spring rate at a zero deflection point of the suspension assembly. The suspension assembly also includes an active trimming mechanism which is configured to move a plurality of pivot points of the negative stiffness element to achieve a trimmed position of the negative stiffness element.

A suspension system for a vehicle, includes (a) a shock absorber disposed between a sprung portion and an unsprung portion and having a damping-force changing mechanism, the shock absorber being configured to generate a damping force with respect to a relative movement of the sprung portion and the unsprung portion such that the magnitude of the damping force is changeable, and (b) a controller configured to control the damping-force changing mechanism. The controller includes a target sprung-speed determining portion configured to determine, as a target sprung speed, a speed of the sprung portion in a behavior of a body of the vehicle that matches an operation input to the vehicle by a driver, for permitting the behavior to match the operation input, the controller being configured to control the damping force such that the speed of the sprung portion becomes equal to the target sprung speed.
摘要:
An active suspension system senses roadway defects and adjusts an active and controllable suspension system of the vehicle before tires come in contact with the defect. The active suspension system identifies a type of defect or debris, e.g., pothole, bump, object, etc., along with the size, width, depth, and/or height information of the defect to more accurately control operation of the suspension system to prepare for, or avoid contact with the roadway defects and obstacles. Imaging techniques are employed to identify the defect or debris. Operation of a serviced cruise control system is controlled to enhance passenger safety and comfort.

A method for controlling a suspension system includes controlling an electronic controlled suspension device (ECS) and an active roll stabilizer (ARS) of a vehicle based on an input sensor value and a driving operation of the vehicle, the input sensor value is based on a road condition and wherein the driving operation is one of a straight driving, a normal turning, and an urgent turning of the vehicle.
摘要:
A regenerative shock absorber that include a housing and a piston that moves at least partially through the housing when the shock is compressed or extended from a rest position. When the piston moves, hydraulic fluid is pressurized and drives a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motor, in turn, drives an electric generator that produced electric energy. The electric energy may be provided to a vehicle, among other things. The regenerative shock absorber may also provide ride performance that comparable to or exceeds that of conventional shock absorbers.
摘要:
A lift truck includes systems and methods for improved stability control. Stability control features reduce or eliminate motion of the truck in one or more of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis. Some embodiments may include, alone or in combination with the stability control, vibration control to further stabilize the motion of the truck.
摘要:
A vehicle control system capable of improving drivability by reflecting driving environment and driving preference accurately on driving characteristics. The vehicle control system is configured to change an index for setting driving characteristics of the vehicle. When accelerations Gx and Gy are changed, a sportiness index is changed in a different manner depending on a detail of an operation for changing accelerations Gx and Gy executed by a driver, thereby reflecting the driving preference of the driver appearing on the operation can be reflected on sportiness of the vehicle.
