Below will be mainly describe in detail and of the present invention vehicle center is carried out self-adjusting method with adjustment process to the driving wheel of vehicle and follower.
As shown in figure 10, this vehicle center self-regulating process comprises:
Step 101, the ground roller group that the roller that formation is parallel to each other by a plurality of axis is formed, these a plurality of rollers freely rotate around its axial line;
Step 102 forms with this ground roller assembly is closed and is used for the upright-guiding mechanism of correcting vehicle to track center line sidesway;

In the present invention, different upright-guiding mechanisms, its method of adjustment is different.
(1) when this upright-guiding mechanism is the guider ring structure, the step of its adjustment comprises:
(2) utilize this upright-guiding mechanism to withstand the leading edge of tire, produce the frictional force between tire and this ring roller;
(3) utilize frictional force between this tire and this ring roller, drive this rotary disk rotation;
(4) utilize the rotation of this rotary disk to produce the driving force that acts on tire, this driving force is towards the center line in this garage;

(4) utilize this driving force, drive vehicle tyre and move to aim at the center, track to the side towards the center, track.
Particularly, in the method for the invention, the automatic adjustment of vehicle center is mainly comprised adjustment process to vehicle drive wheels and follower:
A) to the adjustment process of vehicle drive wheels
Vehicle driving tyre in advancing rotates under the driving force effect, because the deadweight of vehicle produces normal pressure to ground, tire and ground produce frictional force, and ground advances vehicle for the reaction force of tire.After vehicle tyre reached ground roller group, then the frictional reaction (direction is parallel with the roller axis) that imposes on tire by the ground roller ordered about vehicle and advances.
If vehicle ' run-off-road center, then vehicle tyre promptly meets with running roller (the straight roller of length in ring roller on the guider ring or the long straight roller mechanism).When initiatively tire is attempted to cross running roller under the driving force effect, the gravity of vehicle will inevitably be applied on the running roller gradually by tire, the normal pressure that the while tire is applied on the roller of ground will reduce gradually, because the normal pressure on the roller of ground reduces, tire will reduce the power that advances gradually, along with the tire applied pressure that bears and the increase of peripheral force, running roller will produce rotation together with tire, so tire can not be crossed running roller.
The suffered pressure of running roller increases, and the component of its vertical track center line direction in horizontal plane also can increase.Because the ground roller is free to rotate, the resistance that tire is produced relative this component is very little, the component that running roller is applied on the tire forces tire to make lateral translational movement to the center, track on the roller group of ground, pass through in the middle of upright-guiding mechanism up to tire, promptly reached the purpose that vehicle drive wheels is adjusted.
B) to the adjustment process of vehicle follower
Follower does not have driving force, and after follower reached adjusting device, if the automotive run-off-road center, then passive tire just met with running roller.When passive tire is attempted to cross running roller under the driving of vehicle body, the gravity of vehicle will inevitably be applied on the running roller gradually by tire, normal pressure between ring roller and the tire can show with the component on three directions: 1) in the horizontal plane, and the power of vertical track center line.2) in the horizontal plane, the power of parallel track center line.3) power of vertical ground.Its middle roll acts on the power of vertical track center line on the tire, forces tire to make lateral translational movement on the roller group of ground.When this running roller is ring roller on the described guider ring, owing to be subjected to the power of the parallel track center line that tire applies, will make revolution motion with guider ring with tire, guider ring promotes tire again and moves to the track center line, pass through in the middle of two guider rings up to tire, promptly reached the purpose that the vehicle follower is adjusted.When this running roller is the straight roller of described length, long straight roller acts on the power of vertical track center line on the tire, force tire on the roller group of ground, to make lateral translational movement, again because long straight ring roller can not be done revolution motion, this moment tire can overcome and long straight roller between the effect of frictional force advance along long straight roll axis direction, thereby also reach controlled purpose, the size of this frictional force is relevant with the size of straight roll axis of length and ground roller group roller axis angulation, angle is more little, and frictional force will be more little.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
