STEERING CHARACTERISTIC CONTROL DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To keeping the attitude of a vehicle body flat by making wheels follow a road surface according to an input from the road surface. SOLUTION: This device is provided with air suspension devices 11 to 14, a pressure regulating device 20 and a solenoid selector valve 23. In the valve 23, an air chamber R2 is connected to communicate with an air chamber 11b of a left front wheel at an origin position before a switching, and an air chamber R3 is forced to communicate with an air chamber 13b of a left rear wheel. The air chamber R2 is forced to communicate with the air chamber 13b of the left rear wheel at an operation position after the switching, and the air chamber R3 is connected to communicate with the air chamber 11b of the left front wheel. The attitude of the vehicle body is maintained flat in relation to warp direction displacement if the solenoid selector valve 23 is located at the origin position and in relation to inclination of a pitch direction if the valve 23 is located at the operation position, respectively. The attitude can be maintained to cope with the warp direction displacement and roll direction inclination or cope with pitch direction and roll direction inclination. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
