Vehicle driving control device and vehicle control unit
First Claim
1. A vehicle driving control device, comprising:
- body detection means for detecting a body existing forward of a driver'"'"'s own vehicle, driver'"'"'s own vehicle speed detection means for detecting velocity of said driver'"'"'s own vehicle, a steering control mechanism for controlling steering angle of steered wheels on the basis of operation of a steering wheel, body-size detection means for detecting size of said body, and control-characteristics change means for changing control characteristics of said steering control mechanism on the basis of position information on said body detected by said body detection means, said size information on said body, and said velocity information on said driver'"'"'s own vehicle.

Abstract
A vehicle driving control device includes a body detection mechanism for detecting a body existing forward of a driver'"'"'s own vehicle, a driver'"'"'s own vehicle speed detection mechanism for detecting velocity of the driver'"'"'s own vehicle, a steering control mechanism for controlling steering angle of steered wheels on the basis of operation of a steering wheel, a body-size detection mechanism for detecting size of the body, and a control-characteristics change mechanism for changing control characteristics of the steering control mechanism on the basis of position information on the body detected by the body detection mechanism, the size information on the body, and the velocity information on the driver'"'"'s own vehicle. When the driver tries to avoid collision by handle operation, it becomes possible to avoid a collision in a direction in which the driver has turned the handle, and also prevents over-operation from occurring.

- 19. A vehicle control unit for inputting at least distance information up to a body from body detection means, relative-velocity information between said body and a driver'"'"'s own vehicle, and velocity information on said driver'"'"'s own vehicle detected from driver'"'"'s own vehicle speed detection means, and for outputting at least a signal for instructing characteristics change on steering of said vehicle, and a size signal including transverse width of said body.
