  • Variable camber suspension system
    Patent number: 6874793
    Abstract: A dynamically acting variable camber suspension system (50) having a sensor (56), a controller (58), and camber adjusters (60) associated with each wheel (54) which is employing the VCSS (50) in a vehicle (52). The VCSS (50) detects lateral force acting upon the vehicle (52) when it is turning with the sensor (56), calculates the appropriate dynamic response with the controller (58), and uses the camber adjusters (60) to set negative camber for outside wheels (54) and positive camber for inside wheels (54) in a manner such that road contact points (70) of the wheels (54) are spaced to balance normal forces and footprints (74, 76) of the wheels (54) are equalized to maximize frictional forces.
