VEHICLE STABILIZATION CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. A vehicle stabilization control device that includes an actual turning state quantity acquisition unit that acquires an actual turning state quantity that indicates an actual turning state of a vehicle, a control quantity computation unit that, in order to control a braking force for each of the wheels of the vehicle such that understeer of the vehicle is suppressed, computes a target control quantity for each of the wheels, based on the actual turning state quantity, and a control unit that controls the braking force for each of the wheels, based on the target control quantity for each of the wheels, the vehicle stabilization control device comprising:
- a curve information acquisition unit that acquires a shape of a curve that lies ahead in the direction of travel of the vehicle;
a vehicle speed acquisition unit that acquires a speed of the vehicle; and
a curve traverse possibility determination unit that determines a possibility that the vehicle can traverse the curve in a stable manner, based on the curve shape and the speed of the vehicle, whereinthe control quantity computation unit is configured so as to adjust the target control quantity for each of the wheels in accordance with the possibility that the vehicle can traverse the curve in a stable manner.

Abstract
A vehicle stabilization control device includes: an actual turning state quantity acquisition unit that acquires an actual turning state quantity indicating an actual turning state of a vehicle; a curve information acquisition unit that acquires the shape of a curve ahead of the vehicle; a vehicle speed acquisition unit that acquires speed of the vehicle; and a curve traverse possibility determination unit that determines a possibility that the vehicle can stably traverse the curve, based on the curve shape and speed of the vehicle; a control quantity computation unit that, to control braking force on each wheel and suppress understeering, computes a target control quantity for each wheel, based on the actual turning state quantity and on the possibility that the vehicle can stably traverse the curve; and a control unit controlling the braking force for each wheel, based on the target control quantity for each wheel.
