  • Patent number: 8886409
    Abstract: Checking method implemented by a function that automatically checks a steering system (1) of a motor vehicle comprising a steering wheel (4) to operate a powered system (20) that turns the wheels (10) under certain specific conditions of operation of this vehicle, this checking method calculating a reference steering wheel angle (Av cons) to provide torque control of the power system (20), characterized in that it additionally calculates a steering wheel rate of turn reference (Av cons) which is saturated at a predefined value (Avp target).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8275517
    Abstract: The inventive control-assisting system for a motor vehicle comprises a power steering (1) associated with a steering wheel (2) and a power steering actuator (3) whose operation is controlled by a data processing unit (4) for applying power torque to the vehicle steering and is characterized in that said data processing unit (4) is connected to means (5) for controlling the power steering (1) return to at least one predetermined position by computing a return torque according to a disturbance rejection torque corresponding to a resistance torque applied to the steering system and to a reference torque corresponding to a torque required for controlling the steering wheel rotation.

  • Publication number: 20100169135
    Abstract: An approach is provided that includes assigning a unique identification to each individual of a plurality of individuals, compiling hierarchical data relating the individuals to each other, and collecting service data from one or more service providers relating to the plurality of individuals assigned with unique identifications, where the service data includes service charges associated with services provided to the plurality of individuals. Additionally, the hierarchical data and the service data are merged using the unique identifications to generate a table of service charges of the plurality of individuals in a hierarchical format.
