TOE ANGLE CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH10218008
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To improve riding comfort by compensating a change of slip angle by a stroke of a wheel.
A right/left rear wheel Wr is supported with a vertical stroke possible through a suspension 1, a steering arm 10 extended from a knuckle 2 of this rear wheel Wr is connected to an actuator 11 through a rod 12. When the actuator 11 is driven, a toe angle of the rear wheel Wr is changed. As performing a stroke of the rear wheel Wr, when it is laterally moved, a slip angle is changed, undesirable side force is generated, but in accordance with a detected stroke of the rear wheel Wr and wheel sped, by driving the actuator 11, a change of the toe angle is generated so as to negate a change of the slip angle, riding comfort of a vehicle is improved.
