Abstract
A roll stabilization system (1) for a motor vehicle which has a DC voltage converter (6) associated with an electric roll stabilizer (2). By way of the DC voltage converter, a feed voltage can be transformed into a supply voltage for the roll stabilizer (2). To produce as compact a structure as possible, the DC voltage converter (6) is integrated in the electric roll stabilizer (2).
Claims10
A roll stabilization system for a motor vehicle, the roll stabilization system comprising:
- an electric roll stabilizer;
- a DC voltage converter being associated with the electric roll stabilizer such that a feed voltage can be transformed by the DC voltage converter into a supply voltage for the roll stabilizer;
- and
- the DC voltage converter being integrated in the electric roll stabilizer.
A control device in combination with a motor vehicle roll stabilization system comprising, an electric roll stabilizer having a DC voltage converter associated therewith such that a feed voltage can be transformed by the DC voltage converter into a supply voltage for the roll stabilizer, the DC voltage converter is integrated in the control device which is integrated in the electric roll stabilizer, and the feed voltage on an input side of the DC voltage converter is transformed, by the DC voltage converter, into the supply voltage on an output side.
A roll stabilization system for a motor vehicle, the roll stabilization system comprising:
- an electric roll stabilizer being connected, via a lead, to a vehicle electrical system;
- a swivel motor being integrated in the roll stabilizer and comprising electronic components and a control device, and the swivel motor being powered by a supply voltage and the control device regulating the supply voltage transmitted to the swivel motor;
- a DC voltage converter having a control unit, the DC voltage converter being connected to the lead for receiving a feed voltage from the vehicle electrical system, and the control unit of the DC voltage converter determining a value of the feed voltage and initiating transformation of the feed voltage, by the DC voltage converter into the supply voltage, only if the value of the feed voltage is different from a value of the supply voltage;
- and
- the DC voltage converter being connected, via cables, to the electronic components of the swivel motor to transmit the supply voltage from the DC voltage converter to the electronic components for powering the swivel motor which produces a restoring torque in the roll stabilization system.
