AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

If the transmission characteristics such as gaps in the steering transmission system are changed due to aging and deterioration of the above-mentioned elastic members, the linearity between the steering wheel angle and the tire angle cannot be maintained, resulting in a change in the steering feel or a change based on the steering wheel angle information. Problems such as reduced accuracy of inference of vehicle state quantities

Embodiment Construction

[0021] figure 1 A schematic configuration of a vehicle 10 including a characteristic change detection device of a steering transmission system according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown. figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the front wheel portion of a four-wheeled vehicle. The traveling direction of the vehicle is changed by steering the right front wheel FR and the left front wheel FL as steered wheels.

[0022] The vehicle 10 includes an electric power steering device (hereinafter referred to as "EPS"). The EPS includes: a steering wheel 12 steered by the driver; a steering shaft 14 connected to the steering wheel; a reduction mechanism 44 provided at the lower end of the steering shaft; and a steering assist motor 24 whose output shaft is connected to the reduction mechanism 44. . The steering assist motor 24 applies an assist force for assisting a steering operation by driving the steering shaft 14 to rotate.

[0023] A torsion bar (not shown), a ...

Abstract

A steering angle zero point detection unit (102) detects the zero point of the steering angle of a steering wheel. A zero point history retention unit (104) records the detection history of the zero point. A characteristic change determination unit (116) determines whether the characteristics of the steering transmission system have changed on the basis of the width of the zero point detection history.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to techniques for detecting characteristic changes in steering maneuver delivery systems. Background technique [0002] In vehicle behavior control technologies such as vehicle stability control (VSC: Vehicle Stability Control), various controls are performed using detection values ​​of a steering wheel angle sensor mounted on a steering wheel. In the case of using a steering wheel angle sensor of a type that outputs a relative angle, the zero point of the steering wheel angle sensor is first detected, and the steering absolute angle is calculated based on the detected zero point. Therefore, it is important to detect the zero point of the steering wheel angle with high precision. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for detecting a steering wheel angle zero point based on a difference between an estimated yaw rate estimated from a detection value of a steering wheel angle sensor and an actual yaw rate dete...
