Vehicle height adjustment apparatus

A vehicle height adjustment apparatus, comprising:

• a front wheel side changing unit capable of changing a front wheel side relative position which is a relative position of a main body of a vehicle and a front wheel thereof;
• a rear wheel side changing unit capable of changing a rear wheel side relative position which is a relative position of the main body of the vehicle and a rear wheel thereof;
• and
• a control unit for adjusting a height of the main body of the vehicle by controlling the front wheel side changing unit and the rear wheel side changing unit so as to change the front wheel side relative position and the rear wheel side relative position,
• wherein the control unit controls the front wheel side changing unit and the rear wheel side changing unit in such a manner that a rate of change of the front wheel side relative position and a rate of change of the rear wheel side relative position satisfy a predetermined relationship,
• the control unit starts changing of the front wheel side relative position and the rear wheel side relative position when a predetermined condition is established, and controls the front wheel side changing unit and the rear wheel side changing unit in such a manner that a ratio between an amount of change of the front wheel side relative position and an amount of change of the rear wheel side relative position during a prescribed time period after the start of changing becomes a prescribed value, and
• the control unit controls the front wheel side changing unit and the rear wheel side changing unit such that if the ratio is larger than an upper limit value of a range including the prescribed value, the amount of change of the front wheel side relative position is reduced, and if the ratio is lower than a lower limit value of the range, the amount of change of the rear wheel side relative position is reduced.
