DRIVING/BRAKING FORCE CONTROL APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18303215 titled 'DRIVING/BRAKING FORCE CONTROL APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a driving/braking force control apparatus for vehicles.

  • The apparatus includes a front-wheel longitudinal force generator and a rear-wheel longitudinal force generator.
  • It also includes units to measure tire slip angle, tire lateral force, slip ratio, and tire lateral force change rate.
  • There is a target yaw moment setting unit and a driving/braking force distribution control unit.
  • The driving/braking force distribution control unit adjusts the output allocation ratio between the front and rear wheel generators.
  • This adjustment is based on the target value of an additional yaw moment, the change rate of tire lateral force of the front and rear wheels to their respective slip ratios.


Original Abstract Submitted

A driving/braking force control apparatus includes a front-wheel longitudinal force generator, a rear-wheel longitudinal force generator, a tire slip angle output unit, a tire lateral force output unit, a slip ratio output unit, a tire lateral force change rate output unit, a target yaw moment setting unit, and a driving/braking force distribution control unit. The driving/braking force distribution control unit performs a control of an output allocation ratio between the front-wheel longitudinal force generator and the rear-wheel longitudinal force generator based on a target value of an additional yaw moment, a change rate of a tire lateral force of a front wheel to a slip ratio of the front wheel, and a change rate of a tire lateral force of a rear wheel to a slip ratio of the rear wheel.
