Vehicle
First Claim
1. A vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle body which includes a steering section and a main body section connected together;
a steerable wheel which is rotatably mounted to the steering section and which steers the vehicle body;
a non-steerable wheel which is rotatably mounted to the main body section;
a steering apparatus for inputting a steering instruction information;
an inclination actuator apparatus for inclining the steering section or the main body section in a turning direction;
a steering actuator apparatus for varying a steering angle of the steerable wheel based on the steering instruction information inputted from the steering apparatus; and
a control apparatus which controls the inclination actuator apparatus and the steering actuator apparatus,wherein the control apparatus controls a center of gravity of the vehicle to move in a steering direction included in the steering instruction information at an initial steering stage so that an acceleration toward turning-locus inner side is generated.

Abstract
A vehicle includes a vehicle body having a steering section and a main body section connected together; a steerable wheel which is rotatably mounted to the steering section and which steers the vehicle body; a non-steerable wheel which is rotatably mounted to the main body section; a steering apparatus for inputting a steering instruction information; an inclination actuator apparatus for inclining the steering section or the main body section in a turning direction; a steering actuator apparatus for varying a steering angle of the steerable wheel based on the steering instruction information inputted from the steering apparatus; and a control apparatus which controls the inclination actuator apparatus and the steering actuator apparatus. The control apparatus controls a center of gravity to move in a steering direction included in the steering instruction information at an initial steering stage so that an acceleration toward turning-locus inner side is generated.
