DEVICE FOR CONTINUOUS AUTOMATIC TOE-IN CONTROL Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B62D6/04 G01M17/06 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to automotive industry and can be used for automatic toe-in control in motion. Proposed device comprises controlled wheels with bearings, axles with rotary cams, sleeves, and sleeve and ring fastening nuts, strain gage, power supplies, electromagnetic coil, distributor, working fluid vessel, pump and transverse tie rod with reversing mechanism. Strain gages secured on wheel face surface represents transducers of rods lateral reaction and are connected in bridge circuit with power supply and electromagnetic coil. Electromagnetic oil core is coupled with working fluid control valve spool communicated with working fluid vessel and hydraulic cylinder of reversing mechanism intended for adjusting transverse steering link length. Rings represent flat washers. Inner face surfaces of rotary cams and sleeve and ring fastening washers have two diametrically located thrusts that represent triangular prisms. Rings that accommodate strain gages thrust against prism edges.

EFFECT: higher sensitivity and accuracy of automatic toe-in adjustment in motion.
