Patent ID: 8775026

Claim:
A vehicle steering control device, comprising: wheel angle detecting means that detects a wheel angle; a steering reactive force controller that determines a command steering reactive force based on the detected wheel angle; steering reactive force imparting means that imparts a steering reactive force to a steering wheel based on the determined command steering reactive force; and vehicle state amount detecting means that detects a vehicle state amount other than the wheel angle, the vehicle state amount including at least one of a load amount on a fork of a forklift and a lift height of the fork on the forklift, wherein the device is configured to: obtain a correction coefficient based on the detected vehicle state amount; correct a correlation between the detected wheel angle and the command steering reactive force by the obtained correction coefficient to obtain a corrected command steering reactive force; and control the steering reactive force imparting means based on the corrected command steering reactive force, the vehicle steering control device further comprising: vehicle anomaly detecting means that detects an anomaly of the vehicle, wherein the device is configured to: set an intermittent steering reactive force according to the detected steering wheel angle as the command steering reactive force when the vehicle anomaly detecting means detects the anomaly of the vehicle.
