A controller of a motor vehicle comprises a drive motor, wheels, braking devices for the wheels, said braking devices being separately controllable by the controller, an ambient sensor, a driving status sensor and a steering system. For increasing the driving stability, a steering angle is determinable by the controller from signals of the ambient sensor and of the driving status sensor, said steering angle providing a stable driving status in addition to a targeted braking of the wheels, and the steering angle is adjustable at the steering system in order to keep the motor vehicle on the paved road, in particular when driving along a curve, so that the motor vehicle remains on an intersecting plane of the possible dynamic vehicle area ahead with an actual road without skidding or colliding with other obstacles.

A method for detecting a rollover on the basis of a signal of an acceleration sensor in the direction of the vertical axis of the vehicle is described, wherein the time period in which acceleration lies within a specified range is assessed. For this purpose, a counter and a clock generator are provided, wherein the counter is incremented each clock pulse if acceleration lies within a specified range, and the counter is decremented maximally to the value of zero if acceleration lies outside of a specified range. An emergency call may be triggered if a specified counter reading is reached. Additionally, a maximum speed may be specified in the travel direction above which the counter or the triggering is not active.

A method for lateral dynamic stabilization of a single-track motor vehicle while negotiating a curve,in which the presence of an unstable driving state in the vehicle lateral direction is detected andas a function thereof, for the stabilization of the motor vehicle, at least one nozzle is activated, through which a medium is emitted perpendicularly to the wheel plane of a vehicle wheel.

A saddle-straddling type motor vehicle on which an object is loadable for traveling with the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle includes a main body having a wheel, a motor that generates driving force for moving the main body, a wheel force calculator configured to calculate wheel force exerted between the wheel and a surface of a road on which the motor vehicle is traveling, and a wheel force corrector configured to correct the wheel force calculated by the wheel force calculator based on a condition of the object loaded on the motor vehicle.

A communication system for a vehicle comprises a mechanism for sensing a motion status of a vehicle, a control device, plurality of data acquisition sensors, and one or more alerting device activation circuits. The communication system is customizable with the plurality of data acquisition sensors and one or more alerting device activation circuits based upon the needs of the vehicle.

Methods, devices and apparatuses pertaining to stability control of a bicycle. A method may involve a control system associated with a bicycle monitoring one or more parameters related to a movement of the bicycle. The method may also involve the control system detecting an impending occurrence of an event based on the monitoring. The method may further involve the control system adjusting one or more operations related to the movement of the bicycle, including braking of the bicycle, to prevent the occurrence of the event.

The rollover prevention system includes a motor having a drive shaft, a gear assembly positioned in communicating relation with the motor, an assembly box for housing the gear assembly, and an electronic control system for controlling the rollover prevention system. The gear assembly includes a drive gear positioned in communicating relation with a reduction gear, the reduction gear positioned on the drive shaft of the motor, a drive pin attached to the drive shaft of the motor, the drive pin having a gear, as well as a rotatable wheel positioned in communicating relation with the gear positioned on the drive pin, and an eccentric disc positioned within the rotatable wheel. The rotatable wheel includes an attachment member positioned on the exterior surface of the rotatable wheel, the attachment member being attached to a driver's seat of a vehicle.

A method and device for determining a target curve incline of a motor vehicle during traveling of a curved roadway section is disclosed. A momentary transverse acceleration of the motor vehicle is determined depending on a momentary speed of the motor vehicle and a momentary roadway curvature of the curved roadway section determined by an optical detection system. A momentary target curve incline for the motor vehicle is calculated from the determined momentary transverse acceleration. A modified momentary target curve incline is calculated by weighting of the calculated target curve incline with a speed-dependent target curve incline weighting factor. The momentary roadway curvature is determined by additionally using a vehicle navigation system of the motor vehicle.

An automobile cornering rollover prevention system comprises a speed controller, a wheel deflection measuring instrument mounted on a front wheel of the automobile, force sensors mounted on axis positions of four wheels, and an angular speed measuring instrument and a speed controller mounted on the front wheel of the automobile, and the wheel deflection measuring instrument, the angular speed measuring instrument and the force sensor are all electrically connected to the speed controller. The speed controller is connected to a brake system of the automobile, so that the speed can be intelligently reduced through the brake system. When a driver changes .sub.1 according to a road condition, the speed controller may calculate a critical radius in real time and then compare the speed and give a command in real time for controlling the speed, so that the speed is maintained in an ideal range.
