The angle of the trailer (120) relative to the towed vehicle is an important parameter for the stability of the vehicle and the trailer (120). Traction of the vehicle to pull the trailer (120) in a straight line is generally more stable than when the vehicle turns. When turning, the angle between the tow vehicle and the trailer (120) is not a straight line but another angle, which depends in particular on the degree of sharpness of the tow vehicle turning. For safe operation of a vehicle towing a trailer (120), for a given steering input and speed, there is a maximum angle between the tow vehicle and the trailer (120), whereby exceeding this angle causes instability and may cause the trailer (120) or tow vehicle to roll or bend into a folding knife shape. Thus, the angle between the trailer (120) and the tow vehicle must be determined to ensure that the vehicle and the trailer (120) will continue to be in control.

    拖车(120)相对于牵引车辆的角度对于车辆和拖车(120)的稳定性是一项重要参数。牵引车辆在直线上拉动拖车(120)通常比在车辆转弯时更稳定。当转弯时,牵引车辆和拖车(120)之间的角度不是直线,而是另一个角度,这具体取决于牵引车辆转弯的急剧程度。为了安全地操作拖曳拖车(120)的车辆,对于给定的转向输入和速度,牵引车辆和拖车(120)之间存在最大角度,借此超过该角度引起了不稳定性,并且可能引起拖车(120)或牵引车辆翻滚或弯成折刀形。因此,必须确定拖车(120)和牵引车辆之间的角度,以确保车辆和拖车(120)将继续处于控制之中。
