Abstract:
In a method of compensating for disturbances in the straight-line stability of a motor vehicle which is equipped with an active chassis, and includes a steering wheel angle sensor, a driving speed sensor and a yaw sensor or a transversal acceleration sensor, above a predefined driving speed limit and below a predefined steering wheel angle limit, the actual driving state of the vehicle is determined and, when the driving state deviates from a set-point driving state of the motor vehicle, the axles of the active chassis are braced in a crosswise manner.
Abstract:
In a method and a device of a motor vehicle, including regulating units for adjusting the level position of a motor vehicle, at least one control unit for activating the regulating units, at least one sensor mechanism for recording the actual level position of the motor vehicle and a device for setting a setpoint level position of the motor vehicle, the actual level position being adapted to the actual speed of the motor vehicle regarding driving dynamics, whereby a set setpoint level position is able to be fixed, a limiting speed Vlimit regarding driving dynamics is able to be assigned to the setpoint level position, and this limiting speed is not able to be exceeded.
Abstract:
A transporter for transporting a subject over a surface that may be irregular. The transporter includes a support platform for supporting a load, the loaded support platform defining fore-aft and lateral planes and characterized by a load distribution. A plurality of ground contacting elements are coupled to the support platform such that the transporter is statically stable with respect to tipping in the fore-aft plane. At least one of the plurality of ground contacting elements is driven by a motorized drive arrangement. A sensor module generates a signal indicative of the load distribution. Based at least on the load distribution, a controller commands the motorized drive arrangement.
