이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 1은 본 발명에 따른 차량의 능동형 안티스쿼트 장치의 구성을 도시한 것으로서, 그 주요한 구성은 상기한 바와 같이 후륜의 캐리어(1)에 연결되어 있는 트레일링암(3)을 차체(5)에 대하여 회동시켜가면서 트레일링암(3)의 차체(5)에 대한 마운팅 지점을 가변시킬 수 있도록 하는 메커니즘이다.1 shows a configuration of an active anti-squat device of a vehicle according to the present invention, the main configuration of which comprises a trailing arm 3 connected to a carrier 1 of a rear wheel as described above with respect to the vehicle body 5. It is a mechanism for varying the mounting point for the vehicle body 5 of the trailing arm 3 while rotating.
즉, 트레일링암(3)이 후륜의 캐리어(1)에 차량의 상하방향으로 회동 가능하게 부시(7)를 통하여 연결되어 있고, 상기 트레일링암(3)의 차체측 마운팅 지점이 상기 캐리어(1)와의 연결부위를 회동축으로 회동될 수 있도록 차체(5)에는 호형슬롯(9)이 구비되어 있으며, 상기 트레일링암(3)에는 그 차체측 마운팅 지점을 상기 호형슬롯(9) 내에서 회동시키는 회동수단이 연결되어 있어서, 차량 전후의 스트럿의 길이변화를 감지하는 다수의 길이센서(11)와, 상기 길이센서(11)들의 신호를 받아 상기 회동수단을 제어하는 컨트롤러(13)에 의해 상기 트레일링암(3)이 회동할 수 있도록 구성된 것이다.That is, the trailing arm 3 is connected to the carrier 1 of the rear wheel through the bush 7 so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction of the vehicle, and the mounting body side mounting point of the trailing arm 3 is the carrier 1. The vehicle body 5 is provided with an arc-shaped slot 9 so that the joint portion of the car body can be rotated with the pivot shaft. The trailing arm 3 is pivoted to rotate the vehicle-side mounting point in the arc-shaped slot 9. Means are connected, the trailing arm by a plurality of length sensors 11 for detecting the length change of the struts before and after the vehicle, and a controller 13 for receiving the signals of the length sensors 11 to control the rotation means (3) is configured to rotate.
상기 회동수단은 본 실시예에서 차체(5)에 고정된 모터(15)와, 상기 모터(15)에 의해 회동되는 회동암(17)과, 상기 회동암(17)이 끼워져서 회동 운동력을 전달할 수 있도록 상기 트레일링암(3)에 형성된 직선슬롯(19)으로 구성하였다.The rotation means is a motor 15 fixed to the vehicle body 5 in this embodiment, the rotation arm 17 is rotated by the motor 15, and the rotation arm 17 is fitted to transmit the rotational kinetic force It consists of a straight slot 19 formed in the trailing arm (3) to be able to.
상기와 같은 구성의 능동형 안티스쿼트 장치는 다음과 같은 이론적 배경에 근거한 것이다.The active anti squat device having the above configuration is based on the following theoretical background.
즉, 도 1에는 후륜에 트레일링암(3)을 구비하고 있는 차량의 안티스쿼트 조건을 설명하기 위한 차량의 무게중심(C)과 트레일링암(3)의 차체 마운팅 지점과의 관계가 도시되어 있는데, 외국기술서적(서명;“Fundamentals of Vehicle Dynamics”, 저자; Thomas D. Gillespie, 출판사; SAE)의 248~254쪽에 기재된 내용에 따르면, 상기 도 1에 도시된 바와 같은 상태에서 (e/d)=(h/L)의 관계가 성립하면 이론적으로 100% 안티스쿼트(anti-squat) 상태가 구현된다.That is, FIG. 1 shows the relationship between the center of gravity (C) of the vehicle and the body mounting point of the trailing arm (3) for explaining the anti-squat condition of the vehicle having the trailing arm (3) on the rear wheel. According to the contents described on pages 248 to 254 of a foreign technical book (signature; “Fundamentals of Vehicle Dynamics”, author; Thomas D. Gillespie, publisher; SAE), in the state as shown in FIG. 1, (e / d) = If the relationship of (h / L) holds, theoretically 100% anti-squat state is realized.
본 발명은 상기한 바와 같은 이론을 기초로 하고, 또 도 3에 표현된 바와 같은 가정에 근거하는바, 이 가정은 차량의 무게중심(C)의 위치가 탑승인원 및 적재량의 변화에 따라서 도시된 바와 같이 수평이동만을 한다고 가정하는 것이다.The present invention is based on the theory as described above, and based on the assumptions expressed in FIG. 3, wherein the position of the center of gravity C of the vehicle is shown according to the change in occupancy and loading capacity. It is assumed that only horizontal movement is performed.
왜냐하면, 하중의 변화에 따른 무게중심(C)의 높이 변화는 무게중심의 수평방향 변화에 비하여 매우 작다고 가정할 수 있기 때문이다.This is because the height change of the center of gravity C according to the load change can be assumed to be very small compared to the horizontal change of the center of gravity.
따라서, 상기한 바와 같은 안티스쿼트 장치에서, 상기 컨트롤러(13)가 차량의 전후에 설치된 스트럿의 길이변화를 상기 길이센서(11)로 감지하여 그 길이변화에 따른 차량 무게중심(C)의 수평방향 변화를 계산해 내고, 그에 따라 이론적으로 100%의 안티스쿼트 상태를 구현하는 상기 수식을 만족하도록 상기 트레일링암(3)의 차체 마운팅 지점을 연산하게 되는데, 도식적으로는 무게중심으로부터 후륜의 접지점까지의 직선 내에 상기 트레일링암의 차체 마운팅 지점이 선정되면 된다.Therefore, in the anti-squat device as described above, the controller 13 detects the length change of the struts installed before and after the vehicle with the length sensor 11 and the horizontal direction of the vehicle center of gravity C according to the length change. The change is calculated and accordingly the body mounting point of the trailing arm 3 is calculated to satisfy the above equation, which theoretically embodies an anti-squat state of 100%, which is a straight line from the center of gravity to the ground point of the rear wheel. The body mounting point of the trailing arm may be selected within.
컨트롤러(13)는 상기 연산된 결과에 따라서, 상기 모터(15)를 구동하여 상기 회동암(17)이 상기 트레일링암(3)의 차체 마운팅 지점이 상기 차체(5)의 호형슬롯(9)에서 회동하도록 함으로써, 이론적인 100% 안티스쿼트 상태의 서스펜션 지오메트리를 구현하게 된다.The controller 13 drives the motor 15 according to the calculated result so that the pivot arm 17 has the vehicle body mounting point of the trailing arm 3 at the arc slot 9 of the vehicle body 5. By rotating, we achieve the suspension geometry in the theoretical 100% anti-squat state.
상기와 같은 100% 안티스쿼트 상태는 차량이 발진 또는 가속하기 이전에 이미 차량의 무게중심(C) 변화에 따라서 최적의 상태로 서스펜션 지오메트리가 구현되어 있음을 의미하므로, 차량이 발진 또는 가속하는 것에 선행하여 스쿼트의 발생을 효과적으로 방지하게 된다.The 100% anti-squat state as described above means that the suspension geometry is implemented in an optimal state according to the change of the center of gravity (C) of the vehicle before the vehicle starts or accelerates. This effectively prevents the generation of squats.
이상과 같이 본 발명에 의하면, 차량의 스쿼트가 발생하기 이전에 차량의 서스펜션 지오메트리 자체가 현재의 차량 상태에 따라 스쿼트를 방지할 수 있는 최적의 상태로 능동적으로 변화할 수 있도록 함으로써, 스쿼트를 효율적으로 방지하여 차량의 실질적인 승차감 개선을 통한 상품성 향상을 가져온다.As described above, according to the present invention, before the squat of the vehicle occurs, the suspension geometry of the vehicle can be actively changed to an optimal state that can prevent the squat according to the current vehicle state, thereby efficiently squatting. Prevents the improvement of the merchandise through the actual ride comfort of the vehicle.
