Patent ID: 7677352

Claim:
A method for steering a motor vehicle with a superimposition steering system, comprising: detecting a driver's steering angle and a supplemental steering angle; and superimposing the driver's steering angle with the supplemental steering angle, with a superimposition gear, in accordance with additional values by means of a superimposition actuator, wherein a value for a gear input angle of the superimposition gear is determined in accordance with a resulting steering angle of the steering system and in accordance with a value that is directly dependent on the supplemental steering angle or describes the supplemental steering angle, wherein the superimposition actuator is an electrical motor, and the electrical motor is triggered by a weak field current if at least one of a direct steering transmission or a high predetermined steering speed is desired or necessary, and wherein an anticipatory control of a predetermined speed of the electrical motor is carried out, which is determined from a motor rotational speed default and a motor rotational speed predetermined default, whereby the predetermined motor rotational speed default is determined on the basis of a comparison of a predetermined steering angle value with an actual steering angle value that has been determined, and the motor rotational speed default is determined from a temporal differentiation of the theoretical steering angle value in accordance with signal portions that result from the steering choice of the driver and on the basis of an ESP correction angle requested.
