Method and device for simultaneously determining steering and wheel suspension geometries and state of balance of steering linkage rotating parts

摘要

A method and device for automatically monitoring the state of steering and wheel suspension geometry and the state of balance of rotating parts connected to the steering linkage of a motor vehicle and for warning the vehicle driver when the state of the monitored parts is incorrect. Statistical methods are employed for analyzing the signals corresponding to the positions and motions of the steering linkage and generated by a single sensor on the steering linkage.
