    摘要: In a four wheel steering system, the rear wheel turning mechanism is connected to the front wheel turning mechanism by way of a rear wheel turning angle ratio changing mechanism which is mechanically connected to both the front wheel turning mechanism and the rear wheel turning mechanism and transmits the mechanical displacement input thereinto from the front wheel turning mechanism to the rear wheel turning mechanism to drive the same by an amount the ratio of which to the amount of mechanical displacement input into the rear wheel turning angle ratio changing mechanism gives a predetermined rear wheel turning angle ratio. The rear wheel turning angle ratio changing mechanism is controlled in such a way that, when the front wheels are turned from the neutral position in a middle vehicle speed range, makes the rear wheel turning angle ratio negative for a moment immediately after initiation of turning of the front wheels and thereafter turns the same positive.

    摘要: A system for steering a rear wheel of a vehicle having a mechanism for altering a steering ratio, .THETA.S, based on an amount of steering of the rear wheel to an amount of steering a front wheel. The system is disposed in an interconnecting mechanism for mechanically interconnecting the mechanism for steering the front wheel with the mechanism for steering the rear wheel. The value of .THETA.S is set by the following formula:.THETA.S=C1+B.multidot.C3.multidot..vertline.Y.vertline.-C4.multidot..vertline.dY.vertline.where .THETA.S is a steering ratio;Y is a yaw rate of a vehicle body;dY is a yaw acceleration of the yaw rate;C1 is a basic steering characteristic term;C3 is a yaw rate control gain;C4 is a yaw acceleration control gain; andB is a correction coefficient control gain term.The value of B increases when the amount of steering of the front wheel is small and decreases when the amount of steering of the front wheel is large.

    摘要: Two support members which are supported swingably to the vehicle body through the medium of the support axis extending in up and down direction are provided at the vehicle body end portions of two left and right suspension arm members connecting left and right rear wheels to the vehicle body. Lever parts are extended from the support members toward the opposing direction to each other and are interconnected by a link member. One of the two support members is driven by one actuator for rotation around an support axis, whereby left and right two suspension arm members move in vehicle widthwise direction, opposite to each other, and in synchronism with each other and thus left and right rear wheels are steered symmetrically in toe-in direction or toe-out direction. Since the motive power mechanism part is of simple construction using link members, and engaging parts of gears can be lessened, the device according to the present invention can contribute to compactness and cost reduction and also can restrict "shaking" in rear wheel steering due to backlash of gears.

    摘要: A device for steering the rear wheels of a vehicle has a first motor controlled at least with respect to the steering angle of the steering wheel, a gear change mechanism for changing gear ratios, a second motor for controlling the gear ratio by driving the gear change mechanism, a steering mechanism for steering the rear wheels by transmitting a portion of the force equal to the product of the amount that the first motor is driven and the amount that the second motor is driven, a motor failure determination device for detecting motor failure when the amount that either of the first or second motors is driven is zero and the other of the motors is operated, and a control device for controlling both motors so that when motor failure is detected in one of the motors, the amount that the other motor is driven is brought to zero. The steering device may further have a sensor for detecting the steering angle of the rear wheels, and a sensor failure detecting device which monitors the steering angle detected by the sensor, and detects a failure of the sensor when the steering angle of the rear wheel changes although the amount that one of the motors is driven is zero. Also disclosed is a process for steering the rear wheels of a vehicle.
