    • A vehicle running condition judgment device for accurately detecting a change in a road surface condition and a vehicle's limit running condition. With substitution of respective tire characteristics and a detected state quantity into a vehicle motion model, vehicle slip angles are estimated for respective assumed road surface conditions. Based on the current state quantity and the last estimated vehicle slip angle, currently estimated vehicle slip angles for the respective assumed road surface conditions are compensated. A differential operation section calculates an estimation value of a vehicle slip angular velocity for each of the assumed road surface conditions based on the compensated vehicle slip angles for the respective assumed road surface conditions. Meanwhile, an operation section calculates a detection value of a vehicle slip angular velocity based on the detected state quantity. By comparing the detection value and the respective estimation values for the assumed road surface conditions, the current road surface condition is determined. Further, a lateral acceleration is calculated based on a vehicle slip angle, and compared with the detection value for determination of the road surface condition, and also with a predetermined limit value for determination of a vehicle's limit running condition.

    • A vehicle driving condition detection device is adapted to detect a vehicle running along a banked or laterally sloping road, as well as a lateral acceleration, and sideslip angle with good accuracy. The sideslip angle is estimated at a vehicle-body sideslip angle estimating circuit based on a steering angle &dgr;f, a lateral acceleration ÿ, a yaw rate {dot over (&thgr;)}, and a vehicle speed V. In addition, using a differentiating device, the estimated sideslip angle is differentiated to calculate a slip angular velocity. A subtracting device is provided at which a deviation is calculated between the slip angular velocity and a slip angular velocity detected at a slip angular velocity calculating circuit. The deviation can detect a banked or laterally sloping road due to the fact that the detected slip angular velocity at the slip angular velocity calculating circuit includes the gravity acceleration component that depends on the slope or bank of the road. Upon detecting a banked or sloping road, a deviation &Dgr;ÿ (={dot over (&thgr;)}·V−ÿ) is outputted from a switching device, and at a subtracting device the detected lateral acceleration ÿ is corrected by being subtracted with the deviation &Dgr;ÿ. On the basis of the resultant or corrected lateral acceleration ÿ, the vehicle-body sideslip angle is estimated. Such an estimation is made irrespective of the slope or bank of the road.
    • 车辆驾驶状况检测装置适用于检测沿着横向倾斜的道路行驶的车辆以及横向加速度和高精度的侧滑角。 在基于转向角增量,横向加速度ÿ,偏航率{点(θ))和车速V的车身侧滑角估计电路估计侧滑角。另外,使用微分装置 ,估计的侧滑角被差分以计算滑移角速度。 提供一种减法装置,在该减法装置中计算滑移角速度与在滑动角速度计算电路处检测到的滑移角速度之间的偏差。 由于在滑移角速度计算电路处检测到的滑动角速度包括取决于道路的坡度或堤岸的重力加速度分量,偏差可以检测堤岸或横向倾斜的道路。 在检测到一条倾斜的道路时,从切换装置输出偏差DELTAÿ(= {dot over(θ)} V-ÿ),在减法装置中,通过用偏差减去检测到的横向加速度ÿ DELTAÿ。 基于所得到的或校正的横向加速度is,估计车身侧滑角度。 无论道路的坡度还是堤岸,都做出这样的估计。

    • The present invention is directed to a yaw rate detecting system for a vehicle, which includes a yaw rate sensor for measuring a yaw rate of the vehicle. The apparatus is adapted to determine a stopped state of the vehicle, set a zero point at the yaw rate measured by the yaw rate sensor when the stopped state of the vehicle is determined, and calculate an actual yaw rate in response to an output of the yaw rate sensor, on the basis of the zero point. The actual yaw rate is calculated by subtracting the yaw rate at the zero point from the yaw rate measured by the yaw rate sensor. It may be so arranged that a desired yaw rate is set on the basis of a vehicle speed and a steering angle, and the zero point is corrected in response to a comparison of the desired yaw rate and the actual yaw rate. For example, a temporary zero point is set when the stopped state of the vehicle is determined, and a deviation between the desired yaw rate and the actual yaw rate is calculated. In this case, the actual yaw rate is calculated by subtracting the yaw rate at the temporary zero point from the yaw rate measured by the yaw rate sensor. Then, the zero point is corrected on the basis of the temporary zero point in response to the deviation.

    • The present invention is directed to a vehicle motion control system for maintaining vehicle stability by controlling the braking force applied to at least one of the driven wheels and non-driven wheels of a vehicle. A vehicle motion control is performed by applying the braking force to at least one wheel, on the basis of a condition of the vehicle in motion and irrespective of depression of a brake pedal.

For example, when an excessive slip rate of at least one of the driven wheels is detected, a desired slip rate of at least one of the non-driven wheels is corrected.
