Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6684417
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a vehicle with which it is possible for front wheels and a rear wheel to be steered smoothly by means of a difference between driving forces of a left and right pair of front wheels, and which is capable of being driven with a relatively small turning radius. A vehicle 1 is provided with a left and right pair of front wheels 3, one rear wheel 9, a front wheel support member 5 supporting the front wheels 3, a vehicle body frame 7, electric motors which impart a driving force individually to each front wheel 3, and a resistance force imparting device 47. The vehicle body frame 7 supports the rear wheel 9, and supports the front wheel support member 5 in such a way as to be capable of pivoting about an axis Lf. The rear wheel 9 is configured in such a way that a rolling direction thereof can change freely in all directions in the horizontal direction. A steering force causing the front wheel support member 5 to pivot about the axis Lf relative to the vehicle body frame 7 is generated by means of a difference between the driving forces of each front wheel 3. The resistance force imparting device 47 imparts a resistance force acting against the steering force. The resistance force imparting device 47 is controlled in such a way as to adjust the resistance force in accordance with an operating condition of the vehicle 1.
