Abstract:
1. A vehicle movement stabilizing device comprising first frictional force adding means for increasing frictional force between wheels and a road surface by brake hydraulic pressure control, second frictional force adding means having an actuator and an actuated member for increasing the frictional force of the wheels to a road surface by driving said actuated member with said actuator, various sensors including wheel speed sensors, for detecting braking, acceleration and turning movement of the vehicle, and a controller for outputting a signal for controlling the activation of said actuator in response to signals from said sensors, said controller being structured to output control signals for starting control in response to the signals from said sensors, and to output a another signal for ending the activation of said actuator, which is driven if the frictional force of the wheels to the road surface is not more than a predetermined value during braking, acceleration or turning of the vehicle, if said controller detects that the state necessitating the driving of said actuator has disappeared.
