Rolling motion stability control apparatus for a vehicle
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A rolling motion stability control apparatus for restraining a roll increasing tendency of a vehicle to stabilize a rolling motion thereof, comprising:
- first state variable acquiring means for acquiring a first state variable indicative of a rolling motion of said vehicle;
second state variable acquiring means for acquiring a second state variable indicative of a different rolling motion of said vehicle from the first state variable acquired by said first state variable acquiring means;
roll increasing tendency estimation means for estimating the roll increasing tendency of said vehicle, on the basis of a characteristic including the second state variable acquired by said second state variable acquiring means; and
control means for performing at least one of a braking force control and a driving force control of said vehicle, to restrain the roll increasing tendency of said vehicle, said control means performing at least one of the braking force control and the driving force control, on the basis of the first state variable acquired by said first state variable acquiring means when said roll increasing tendency estimation means estimates the roll increasing tendency of said vehicle.

Abstract
A first state variable indicative of a rolling motion of a vehicle and a second state variable indicative of a different rolling motion of the vehicle from the first state variable are acquired. A roll increasing tendency of the vehicle is estimated on the basis of a characteristic including the second state variable. At least one of a braking force control and a driving force control is performed to restrain the roll increasing tendency of the vehicle, on the basis of the first state variable acquired when the roll increasing tendency is estimated.
