DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING TRAVELING OF VEHICLE
A device for controlling traveling of a vehicle is provided. The device includes a sensor that obtains vehicle traveling information, a navigation that obtains vehicle position information, and a controller that determines whether the vehicle has entered a building based on the vehicle traveling information and the vehicle position information. The controller calculates a traveling control amount based on the determination result. Accordingly, the device actively adjusts a vehicle height even when the vehicle enters the building and travels on a slope in the building preventing damage to a lower portion of the vehicle.
Vehicle Integrated Control Method and System
A vehicle integrated control method includes determining a road surface status, determining a vehicle status, determining an integrated control mode by determining a control status of an electronic control suspension and a motion of a sprung mass and an unsprung mass based on the determination results of the road surface status and the vehicle status, and controlling the electronic control suspension and an in-wheel system by determining a control amount based on the determined integrated control mode.
Tracked vehicle comprising a rotatably attached bogie
The invention relates to a tracked vehicle (11) comprising a vehicle body (30), at least one track assembly (21) and a suspension device (S). Said track assembly (21) is arranged to be supported by said vehicle body (30) by means of said suspension device (S), said track assembly comprising a track support beam (22) for supporting a plurality of road wheels (23, 23a), an endless track (25) being disposed around said road wheels. Said suspension device (S) comprises a bogie arrangement (50) rotatably attached to a fastening point (P0) of said vehicle body (30) about an axis of rotation (Z0) transversal to the longitudinal extension of said track assembly (21) and attached to said track support beam (22) in connection to at least two fastening points (P1, P2) so that the track support beam (22) is allowed to rotate in a rotational plane extending along the longitudinal extension of said track support beam (22) about said axis of rotation.
ELECTROMECHANICAL BRAKE SYSTEM HAVING SUSPENSION CONTROL FUNCTION
The present disclosure relates to an electromechanical brake system having a suspension control function. The electromechanical brake system includes an electromechanical brake connected to each wheel of a vehicle to brake the vehicle, a suspension configured to control suspension of the vehicle, a motor configured to provide driving force to the electromechanical brake or to the suspension, a first clutch configured to connect the electromechanical brake and the motor to each other, a second clutch configured to connect the suspension and the motor to each other, and a controller configured to output a control signal for controlling the motor to be connected to one of the first clutch and the second clutch based on a state signal of the vehicle.
Utility vehicle with deployable platform
The disclosure provides an electric utility vehicle with detachable platform. The electric utility vehicle may include a load platform supported on a chassis including at least two electrically driven wheels. The detachable platform may be removeably coupled to the load platform. The detachable platform may include a central hub including a top surface. The detachable platform may include three legs coupled to the central hub, each leg including an actuator configured to extend the respective leg to a ground surface while the detachable platform is coupled to the load platform. The detachable platform may include a controller configured to coordinate the actuators to control an orientation of the top surface.
SELECTIVELY MOVABLE ELECTRIC PROPULSION MOTOR AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING THE SAME
A powertrain for a vehicle may include a vehicle chassis, a rotatable vehicle drive axle, at least one selectively movable electric propulsion motor having a rotatable motor shaft rotatable about an axis defined by the rotatable vehicle drive axle, a motor actuator connected to the at least one selectively movable electric propulsion motor, and a control system in communication with the motor actuator. The control system may include a memory device in communication with the control system having instructions that when executed by the control system causes the control system to receive at least one input from at least one sensor and instruct the motor actuator to rotate the at least one selectively movable electric propulsion motor based on the at least one input from the sensor.
Tilting vehicle and method of control thereof
A method of tilting a vehicle is provided, and a vehicle is provided. The vehicle has a tilt control system to control the tilt of the vehicle. The method includes tilting the tilting vehicle and/or another tilting vehicle in response to at least one external trigger.
Vehicle intent communication based on vehicle posture
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for communicating motion intention of a vehicle to other road users. The method can include receiving a signal indicating a motion intention of the vehicle, and controlling a suspension system of the vehicle to create a vehicle posture according to the motion intention of the vehicle to show the motion intention of the vehicle to other road users.
ITERATIVE ESTIMATION OF NON-HOLONOMIC CONSTRAINTS IN AN INERTIAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM
A device implementing a system for estimating device location includes at least one processor configured to receive a first and second set of signals, each set corresponding to location data and being received based on a sampling interval. The at least one processor is configured to, for each sampling period defined by the sampling interval, obtain sensor data corresponding to device motion during the sampling period, determine an orientation of the device relative to that of the vehicle based on the sensor data, calculate a non-holonomic constraint based on the orientation of the device relative to that of the vehicle such that the non-holonomic constraint is iteratively updated, and estimate a device state based on the non-holonomic constraint.
UTILITY VEHICLE WITH DEPLOYABLE PLATFORM
The disclosure provides an electric utility vehicle with detachable platform. The electric utility vehicle may include a load platform supported on a chassis including at least two electrically driven wheels. The detachable platform may be removeably coupled to the load platform. The detachable platform may include a central hub including a top surface. The detachable platform may include three legs coupled to the central hub, each leg including an actuator configured to extend the respective leg to a ground surface while the detachable platform is coupled to the load platform. The detachable platform may include a controller configured to coordinate the actuators to control an orientation of the top surface.
