Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a device for adjusting the braking effect and/or driving effect at the wheels of a motor vehicle. For this purpose, a tire tolerance adjustment has at least two different operating modes. It is determined whether a mounted spare wheel or temporary spare wheel is present. One of the operating modes is selected as a function of the determined existence of a spare wheel.
Claims15
A method for adjusting the braking and/or driving effect at the wheels (101ij) of a motor vehicle, having at least two wheels and having the sensors (105ij), which are assigned to the wheels, and which generate speed signals (Nij) representing the rotary motions of the wheels, the speed signals (Nij) being corrected by a correction, and the braking and/or driving effect being adjusted at least as a function of the corrected output signals of the sensors,
- wherein the correction has at least two different operating modes (RTAnormal, RTAquick);
- and
- it is determined whether a mounted temporary spare wheel or spare wheel having a smaller radius than the remaining wheels is present;
- one of the modes (RTAnormal, RTAquick) is selected as a function of the ascertained presence of a temporary spare wheel or spare wheel.
A device for adjusting the braking and/or driving effect at the wheels (101ij) of a motor vehicle, having at least two wheels and having the sensors (105ij), which are assigned to the wheels and which emit speed signals (Nij) representing the rotary motions of the wheels, the speed signals (Nij) being corrected by a correction, and the braking and/or driving effect being adjusted at least as a function of the corrected output signals of the sensors,
- wherein the correction has at least two different operating modes (RTAnormal, RTAquick);
- and
- it is determined whether a mounted temporary spare wheel or spare wheel having a smaller radius than the remaining wheels is present;
- one of the modes (RTAnormal, RTAquick) is selected as a function of the ascertained presence of a temporary spare wheel or spare wheel.
