A switchable stabilizer assembly of a vehicle, in particular for roll stabilization. The stabilizer assembly includes a first stabilizer half and a second stabilizer half, both coupled to a wheel of the vehicle, where the first and second stabilizer halves are coupled rotatably relative to each other about their longitudinal axis by a hydraulic actuator. The actuator has at least two working chambers filled with a hydraulic medium and has at least one fluid-conducting connection of variable flow cross section between the at least two working chambers. The working chambers are not elastically deformable. Instead, a spring element is arranged in the at least two working chambers and/or in at least two further working chambers of the actuator and is supported between a rotor and a stator of the actuator. The flow cross section of the fluid-conducting connection can be varied depending on the vibration frequency of the stabilizer assembly.

A roll stabilizer for a motor vehicle includes a plurality of sensors for detecting a plurality of measurement variables, in particular a torque sensor, a rotor position sensor and optionally an actuator temperature sensor. Each of the sensors resides on a separate sensor circuit board which is separate from a motherboard. The motherboard has electronics for evaluating the measurement variables detected by the sensors and/or for forwarding said measurement variables to an external control device.

An anti-roll bar link for a vehicle suspension may be positioned between an anti-roll bar and an articulating arm. The link selectively transfers movement of the arm to the anti-roll bar, depending on a locked or unlocked state. The link includes a body interfacing a slidable shaft. A physical feature selectively locks or unlocks the slidable shaft with respect to the body. The physical feature may include a locking pin, interference with a locking ball, etc. In the locked state, translation of the slidable shaft is restricted, and movement of the arm is transferred through the link to the bar. In the unlocked state, translation of the slidable shaft is permitted, and movement of the arm causes the shaft to translate with respect to the body such that at least a portion of the movement is not transferred to the bar.

A method of controlling relative roll torque in vehicles having a front active sway bar and a rear active sway bar is provided. The front active sway bar varies roll torque of a front axle and the rear active sway bar varies roll torque of a rear axle. The method includes monitoring dynamic driving conditions during operation of the vehicle and biasing tire lateral load transfer distribution (TLLTD) relative to the front axle based on the monitored dynamic driving conditions. Positive bias of the TLLTD increases the portion of a total roll torque carried by the front active sway bar. Biasing TLLTD occurs during one or more dynamic bias events triggered as monitored dynamic driving conditions exceed one or more calibrated thresholds.

A sway bar linkage assembly includes a socket joint, a shank extending from the socket joint, a bolt, and a bushing. The shank has a first bore with a first bore diameter and a second bore extending between the first bore and the socket joint. The second bore has a second bore diameter less than the first bore diameter such that a flange extends between the first bore and the second bore. The bolt has a head, a shaft extending from the head and a stud extending between the shaft is included. The shaft has a first diameter and the stud has second diameter less than the first diameter such that a ledge extends between the shaft and the stud. The bushing is compressed a predefined by the bolt when the bolt extends through the bushing and the ledge of the bolt abuts against the flange of the shank.

An anti-roll bar link for a vehicle suspension may be positioned between an anti-roll bar and an articulating arm. The link selectively transfers movement of the arm to the anti-roll bar, depending on a locked or unlocked state. The link includes a body interfacing a slidable shaft. A physical feature selectively locks or unlocks the slidable shaft with respect to the body. The physical feature may include a locking pin, interference with a locking ball, etc. In the locked state, translation of the slidable shaft is restricted, and movement of the arm is transferred through the link to the bar. In the unlocked state, translation of the slidable shaft is permitted, and movement of the arm causes the shaft to translate with respect to the body such that at least a portion of the movement is not transferred to the bar.

Disclosed is a roll stabilizer (1) for a motor vehicle, comprising a sensor unit (10), which operates according to the principle of inverse magnetostriction, for acquiring torque (M) acting between stabilizer portions (6a, 6b), characterized in that the sensor unit (10) includes a magnetic field generation device, which preferably comprises a transmitter coil (12) and is used for magnetizing a measurement element (4; 6a) affected by torsional stress during operation, and a plurality of magnetic field detection devices, each of which preferably comprises a receiver coil (13) and which are used for acquiring parameters of the magnetic field of the measurement element (4; 6a). Also disclosed is a corresponding sensor unit (10) for a roll stabilizer (1) of the aforementioned type.

A sway bar linkage assembly includes a socket joint, a shank extending from the socket joint, a bolt, and a bushing. The shank has a first bore with a first bore diameter and a second bore extending between the first bore and the socket joint. The second bore has a second bore diameter less than the first bore diameter such that a flange extends between the first bore and the second bore. The bolt has a head, a shaft extending from the head and a stud extending between the shaft is included. The shaft has a first diameter and the stud has second diameter less than the first diameter such that a ledge extends between the shaft and the stud. The bushing is compressed a predefined by the bolt when the bolt extends through the bushing and the ledge of the bolt abuts against the flange of the shank.

An electromechanical roll stabilizer for a motor vehicle includes a housing, a rotor position sensor board, and an actuator torque sensor board. The housing has a motor unit that has a stator and a rotor integrated therein. The rotor position sensor board and the actuator torque sensor board are arranged between two stabilizer halves. The actuator torque sensor board has a digitization and transmission unit for digitizing the sensed torque and transmitting the digitized torque to a data forwarding module arranged on the rotor position sensor board. The rotor position sensor board has a rotor position detection unit for sensing and digitizing the rotor position and a data processing unit. The sensing of the rotor position can be triggered by at least one command signal of a controller to the rotor position detection unit. The data processing unit is provided to process the sensed measured values.
