The method involves detecting rotational speeds of wheels (9-12) of trailer (2). The wheel steering angle of the trailer at articulated axle is evaluated. The angle between trailer and towing vehicle is determined by applying detected rotational speeds of ...

Steering system (1), especially a steer-by-wire system has a steering angle control unit (2) for a steering angle actuator for adjusting the steering angle of a steerable wheel (4). A monitoring unit (5) compares an actual value for the actual torque of th...

A method is provided for monitoring the safety of the steering system by monitoring the input signals to a control device using safety functions (e/e/pessf, appsf). In a first step, the input signals are plausibility checked using an circuitry-dependent sa...

Vehicle steering system operation method involves a control unit receiving input signals e.g. steering movements by the driver, and/or other vehicle-specific states e.g. vehicle speed, and producing an output signal to create a steering movement (delta Fm)...

A tracking control unit (2) detects a vehicle's course deviation and supplies a servomotor (3) with a steering aid adjusting signal (lr) requested from the control unit. This steering aid adjusting signal superimposes a steering aid adjusting signal (lf) r...

The actuator (1) is designed so that a coupling element (10) is axially movable with a coupling section (16) and is preloaded by a spring (11). A second coupling section (4) is connected fixed with the stabilizer (5). The coupling elements have coupling se...
