Method for controlling an electronically adjustable steering damper for a two-wheeled vehicle and apparatus implementing it

摘要

The present invention refers to a method for controlling an electronically adjustable steering damper in a two-wheeled vehicle or motor vehicle, and to an apparatus implementing it, in which the steering damper is able to exert a damping torque on a steering assembly (45) of the two-wheeled vehicle (40) that can be adjusted according to a steering speed (s´). The control method comprises the steps of calculating an instantaneous damping coefficient ( cin(t) ) of the electronically adjustable steering damper based on the at least one controlled variable (s¨, s´) and is characterized in that the at least one controlled variable comprises a yaw rate (s¨) of the two-wheeled vehicle. Correspondingly, the control apparatus comprises processing means connected to at least one measuring means being suitable for calculating an instantaneous damping coefficient value ( cin(t)) of the steering damper and is characterized in that at least one measuring means comprises a means for measuring a yaw rate ( s¨) of the two-wheeled vehicle (40) and/or a means for measuring a steering angle (s´).
