Vehicle height adjustment device
First Claim
1. A vehicle height adjustment device comprising:
- an actuator configured to change a relative position of a body of a vehicle relative to an axle of a wheel of the vehicle;
a detector configured to detect the relative position of the body of the vehicle relative to the axle of the wheel of the vehicle;
a vehicle height controller configured to control the actuator based on a detection value detected by the detector to change the relative position to control a vehicle height, which is a height of the body; and
a malfunction detector configured to, when the detection value detected by the detector changes by a predetermined amount or more in a predetermined period of time, determine that there is a possibility of a malfunction occurring in the detector.

Abstract
A vehicle height adjustment device includes a changer, a detector, a vehicle height controller, and a malfunction detector. The changer is configured to change a relative position of a body of a vehicle relative to an axle of a wheel of the vehicle. The detector is configured to detect the relative position of the body of the vehicle relative to the axle of the wheel of the vehicle. The vehicle height controller is configured to control the changer based on a detection value detected by the detector to change the relative position to control a vehicle height, which is a height of the body. When the detection value detected by the detector changes by a predetermined amount or more in a predetermined period of time, the malfunction detector is configured to determine that there is a possibility of a malfunction occurring in the detector.
