Vehicle height detecting system
First Claim
1. A vehicle height detecting system for use in a vehicle, comprising:
- transmitting means, adapted for being provided at either one of the wheel structure and the vehicle body structure, for transmitting a radio wave signal;
receiving means, adapted for being provided at the other of the wheel structure and the vehicle body structure, for receiving the radio wave signal from the transmitting means; and
vehicle height detecting means for determining a ground level of the vehicle on the basis of an intensity of the radio wave signal received at the receiving means and/or a time duration between an initiation of the transmission of the radio wave signal from the transmitting means to the reception thereof at the receiving means.

Abstract
A vehicle height detecting system which detects a vehicle height level by transmitting and receiving a wireless wave signal between a wheel side and a vehicle body side of a vehicle, which includes a transmitting device provided at either one of the wheel side or the vehicle body side of the vehicle and transmitting the wireless wave signal, a receiving device provided at the other of the wheel side or the vehicle body side of the vehicle and receiving the wireless wave signal transmitted by the transmitting device, and a vehicle height detecting device detecting a level of the vehicle body on the basis of a time from transmitting the wireless wave signal by the transmitting device to receiving the wireless wave signal by the receiving device and/or on the basis of an intensity of the wireless wave signal received by the receiving device.
