Height control device for vehicle
First Claim
1. A vehicle altitude control apparatus comprising:
- a braking state detecting unit for detecting a braking state of a vehicle;
a target altitude setting unit for setting a target altitude of a driver with respect to a road surface according to the braking state detected by the braking state detecting unit;
an altitude adjusting unit for adjusting an altitude of the driver according to the target altitude set by the target altitude setting unit; and
a vehicle speed detecting unit for detecting a vehicle speed of the vehicle;
wherein the target altitude setting unit corrects the target altitude according to the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed detecting unit.

Abstract
A seat height control amount setting part determines a target seat height displacement amount according to a deceleration outputted from a braking state calculating part. The deceleration is corrected according to the vehicle speed of a vehicle, and the target seat displacement amount is set such that the seat height becomes lower as the vehicle speed is higher. While correcting the target seat height displacement amount, a target deceleration with respect to the amount of operation of a brake pedal is corrected. The target deceleration is corrected such that the target deceleration with respect to the amount of operation of the brake pedal becomes greater as the vehicle speed is higher.
