In a particular embodiment, a vehicle load measurement system is described that includes a chassis configured to support a body of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the vehicle load measurement system also includes a suspension system and a plurality of angle sensors attached to the suspension system. Each angle sensor is configured to measure an angle with respect to height. In this embodiment, the plurality of angle sensors include a first sensor attached to the first side of the suspension system configured to measure a first angle and a second sensor attached to the second side of the suspension system configured to measure a second angle.

An air suspension system of a commercial vehicle comprises an electronic control device with a level control valve device. A valve element is coupled to a drive element mechanically coupled to a vehicle wheel or axle. In a first relative position of the valve element and a counter valve element, a port for an air suspension bellow is blocked. In a second relative position, the port for the air suspension bellow is connected to a port for an aeration device. In a third relative position, the port for the air suspension bellow is connected to a port for a deaeration device. Control logic generates a control signal for an actuator which, when a level change is set by an operator, correspondingly changes the relative position of the valve element and the counter valve element or the relative position of the counter valve element and a valve housing.

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.

Tipping over of a work machine is prevented. The work machine includes: a vehicular body; a rear axle attached to the vehicular body to be capable of undergoing a roll motion with respect to an axis extending in a front-rear direction of the vehicular body; and a controller. The controller acquires stability of the center of gravity of the vehicular body, and controls the roll motion of the rear axle with respect to the vehicular body based on the stability.
