Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1541773A2] Overturning of a vehicle on an inclined road is prevented without the function of hydraulic suspension being impaired. When the current tilt angle θ for the body (2) is equal to or smaller than the maximum tolerable tilt angle θ m, the inflow and outflow of hydraulic oil for the respective hydraulic suspension cylinders (21) to (24) for the wheels (11) to (14) is made free. On the other hand, when the current tilt angle θ for the body (2) exceeds the maximum tolerable tilt angle θ m, the inflow and outflow of hydraulic oil for the respective hydraulic suspension cylinders (21) to (24) for the wheels (11) to (14) is locked. In a further invention, when it has been determined that the current tilt angle θ for the body (2) exceeds the maximum tolerable tilt angle θ m, the vehicle height is adjusted, and the posture of the body (2) is brought to near the horizontal posture so as to be equal to or smaller than the maximum tolerable tilt angle θ m. In a still further invention, when it has been determined that the body (2) is tilted, the vehicle height is adjusted, and the posture of the body (2) is brought to near the horizontal posture until the body (2) is in the horizontal posture. <IMAGE>
