System and Method for Guiding a Vehicle, and Vehicle Comprising Said System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18301479 titled 'System and Method for Guiding a Vehicle, and Vehicle Comprising Said System

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a system for guiding a vehicle using two operating elements that can influence the wheel steering angle. - The first and second operating elements are not mechanically connected to each other. - A target steering angle is determined based on the sum of steering torques, which includes a target steering torque and the actual steering torques of the first and second operating elements. - The first and second actual steering angles are adjusted based on the target steering angles in their respective operating elements. - A target wheel steering angle is determined based on the target steering angle, taking into account the first and second actual steering angles. - The wheel steering angle is adjusted based on the target wheel steering angle.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system for guiding a vehicle includes first and second operating elements, which are configured to influence a wheel steering angle of the vehicle and are not mechanically coupled to one another. A target steering angle is determined as a function of a sum of steering torques, which is dependent on a target steering torque and actual steering torques of the first and of the second operating elements. The first and second actual steering angles are adjusted as a function of the target steering angles in the respective first and second operating elements. A target wheel steering angle is determined as a function of the target steering angle, wherein the sum of steering angles includes two summands dependent on the first actual steering angle and the second actual steering angle, respectively. The wheel steering angle is adjusted as a function of the target wheel steering angle.
