Title: Estimator for road surface friction coefficient
Inventor: TSUKASAKI YUICHIRO
IPC: B60W40/068
Filed: 2007-01-10
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely prevent a sense of discomfort given to a driver or an unintended vehicle's behavior from arising, when the friction coefficient of a road surface is to be estimated.  <P>SOLUTION: After turning a steering wheel so that left and right wheels are made to be opposite in phases to each other, they are returned to their original steering angles; and the friction coefficient μ of the road surface is estimated from information on the amount of operation, operation time, and the like, required for the then steering wheel turn. In performing the opposite-phase steering wheel turn of the left and right wheels, respective expansion mechanism parts are controlled so that left and right tie rods expand and contract in directions opposite to each other; while the left wheel and right wheel are turned by a definite angle, in directions that are opposite to each other, and then they are returned to their original state. This makes it possible to surely prevent a sense of discomfort given to the driver or an unintended vehicle's behavior from arising, when estimating the friction coefficient of a road surface.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
