AUTOMATIC TILTING VEHICLE

An automatic tilting vehicle is provided that includes left and right front wheels supported by knuckles, a steerable rear wheel, a vehicle tilting device, and a control unit. The vehicle tilting device includes a swing member, a tilt actuator for swing the swing member, and a pair of tie rods pivotally attached to the swing member and the knuckles. The control unit calculates a target lateral acceleration of the vehicle, estimates a lateral acceleration of the vehicle caused by the gyro moments of the wheels and calculates a target tilt angle of the vehicle based on a sum of the target lateral acceleration and the lateral acceleration caused by the gyro moments.

Smart device application with customizable tunes for active valve control

A system and method for utilizing an active valve customizable tune application is disclosed. The system includes a mobile device having a memory, an active valve tune application, and at least one processor. The processor initiates the active valve tune application, receives, from a database, an active valve suspension tune having a number of performance range adjustable settings, and receives user related input information. At least one of the performance range adjustable settings is modified based on the received input information to generate a modified active valve suspension tune. The system includes an active suspension of a vehicle, wherein the modified active valve suspension tune is implemented by the active suspension.

Suspension controller and sensor network for ride height control with air suspension

A system for controlling vehicle ride height include a suspension controller. The suspension controller is coupled to a motion sensor attached to a chassis of a vehicle and additional motion sensors each attached to a suspension member of the vehicle that pivots relative to the chassis. The suspension controller receives motion sensor data from the motion sensors and determines relative angular position of each suspension member as a function of motion sensor data received from the motion sensor attached to the chassis and motion sensor data received from the motion sensor attached to the suspension member. The suspension controller adjusts an air suspension based on the relative angular position. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
