Title:
Motor assist joint system for articulated buses
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6320525
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A motor-assisted joint system is provided to improve maneuverability and safety of an articulated bus. The motor-assisted joint system is enabled when the articulated bus is operated in an active damping mode. An articulated joint with a flat motor is used. According to the velocity of the articulated bus, a highly sensitive damping force is calculated and an opposing force is generated to balance the inertia of the articulated bus when an oversteering event or a tire slip event occurs. Consequently, the driving performance of the articulated bus in various aspects is enhanced.
