ROLL STABILIZER FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE

A roll stabilizer for a motor vehicle includes a torsion bar and a vibration damper located on the torsion bar. The vibration damper is configured to vibrate relative to the torsion bar. The vibration damper includes two half-shells formed together about the torsion bar. Damper elements are disposed between the half-shells. The damper elements can be adjusted via an adjustment component to alter the rigidity of the damper elements.

Vehicle with three or more wheels provided with an anti-roll stabiliser device and anti-roll control method of a vehicle having at least three wheels
10239377 · 2019-03-26 · ·

A vehicle with 3 or more wheels includes at least two wheels aligned on the same axis. The vehicle has an intermediate centerline plane between the wheels parallel to a direction of movement, including a mass suspended in relation to the wheels defining a passenger or containment compartment, and two suspension groups kinematically connecting the suspended mass to the two aligned wheels. An anti-roll stabilizer device has at least one compensation mass kinematically connected to the suspended mass via a guide and movable in relation thereto. The anti-roll stabilizer device has a drive of the compensation mass to distance or bring the compensation mass closer to the centerline plane on the side opposite the displacement of a barycenter of the suspended mass with respect to the same centerline plane, to oppose the displacement with respect to the centerline plane of the position of the barycenter of the suspended mass.

Hydraulically operated actuator for controlling vehicle ride height

A hydraulic actuator assembly is configured to receive a pressurized fluid from a pump. The hydraulic actuator assembly includes a housing and a piston arranged concentrically with respect to a longitudinal axis, wherein the housing is configured to receive a first portion of the pressurized fluid to displace the piston relative to the housing. The hydraulic actuator assembly also includes a sleeve arranged concentrically with respect to the housing and to the piston, and configured to restrain the piston relative to the housing and receive a second portion of the pressurized fluid from the pump to selectively release the piston. A vehicle including a suspension corner connecting the vehicle's road wheel to the vehicle's body, the fluid pump, and the subject hydraulic actuator assembly to change the vehicle's ride height at the suspension corner is also disclosed. The vehicle may also include a controller configured to control the actuator assembly.
