发明名称 Apparatus for tractor trailer onboard dynamic alignment
摘要 The present invention monitors a vehicle's normal axle path of movement during vehicle operation when the axle is aligned parallel and perpendicular to the vehicle's geometric centerline. An onboard computer ( 82 ) stores normal axle motion values which are determined by an arm or line segment ( 28 ) having a first end originating at axle ( 58 ) and a second end of line segment ( 28 ) ending on segmented sensing plane ( 40 ) mounted adjacent to axle ( 58 ). Computer ( 82 ), along with transducers and transmitters are used for interpolating and conveying information from sensors which detect and compare values of the area of axle movement outside of the normal axle path of movement. Upon axle deviation, axle ( 58 ) moves outside of the normal axle path of movement ( 64 ). Signals are transmitted to one or more linear actuators ( 84 ) attached relative to the vehicle's axle adjustment mechanisms ( 88 ). Computer ( 82 ) constantly maintains a sequence of events on corrective actions and instructs actuators ( 84 ) which dynamically correct the axle's alignment to normal motion values.
