  • Patent number: 11124179
    Abstract: A vehicle comprising a steering axle, a steering device configured to steer the steering axle, wherein a steering wheel angle can be input via the steering device, wherein the steering wheel angle leadings to a steering angle of wheels of the steering axle, and a quotient of the steering wheel angle to the steering angle defines a steering ratio, a first drive, wherein the first drive allows a wheel-selective distribution of a first torque to the wheels of the steering axle, a second drive, wherein the second drive allows a wheel-selective distribution of a second torque to the wheels of a drive axle, and a controller configured to receive input variables defining driving dynamic variables of the vehicle, wherein the drive dynamic variables allow a change in the steering ratio to ascertained, and the controller outputs control information for distributing the drive torque.

  • Publication number: 20200353931
    Abstract: A vehicle is proposed having a first axle portion, wherein the first axle portion has a first axle, a second axle portion, wherein the second axle portion has a second axle, a wheel-selective drive torque arrangement, wherein at least one of the axles is designed as an axle influenced by the wheel-selective drive torque arrangement, and a control device, wherein the control device is designed to control the wheel-selective drive torque arrangement in order to convert a steering command into cornering of the vehicle, and an articulated joint, wherein the first and second axle portions are coupled to one another by the articulated joint.
