Drive-force distribution controller

摘要

A drive-force distribution controller for a four-wheel-drive vehicle which provides a torque distribution unit distributing an output torque transmitted from a prime motor to driving wheels to driven wheels, is composed of a wheel speed sensor for detecting a wheel speed in each of the driving and driven wheels; a first judging means for judging which of the driven wheel is an inner wheel based upon the detected wheel speeds; a second judging means for judging that the inner wheel of the driving wheels slips when the detected inner wheel speed of the driving wheel is larger than the detected outer wheel speed thereof; a third judging means for judging whether a slip of the outer driving wheel happens or not by comparing the detected wheel speed of the outer driving wheel with a calculated wheel speed thereof based upon the detected wheel speeds of the inner driving wheel and driven wheels; and a transmissible torque control means for controlling the torque distribution unit so as to increase the output torque to the driven wheels when it is judged the inner wheel of the driving wheel slips in the second judging means and when it is judged that the outer driving wheel slips in the third judging means.
