PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connection angle acquisition device of combination vehicles capable of acquiring a connection angle without needing special hardware separately in order to acquiring the connection angle of combination vehicles composed of a tractor and a trailer with a relatively simple and inexpensive configuration.SOLUTION: The connection angle acquisition device of combination vehicles composed of a traction vehicle and a towed vehicle connected rotatably around a connection shaft extending almost perpendicularly to the traction vehicle acquires a connection angle θ being a rotation angle around the connection shaft of the towed vehicle with respect to the traction vehicle by a mathematical expression A derived on the basis of a geometrical model. In addition, the operation support system of the combination vehicles presents information based on the acquired connection angle θ to a driver so as to support the driving of the combination vehicles.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
【課題】 比較的簡単かつ低コストな構成で、トラクタとトレーラからなる連結車両の連結角の取得のために別途特殊なハードウェアを必要とすることなく、連結角を取得することができる連結車両の連結角取得装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明は、牽引車両と、該牽引車両に対して略垂直方向に延びる連結軸廻りに回転可能に連結される被牽引車両と、からなる連結車両の連結角取得装置であって、牽引車両に対する被牽引車両の連結軸廻りの回転角である連結角θを、幾何学モデルに基づいて導かれた数式Aにより取得する。また、本発明に係る連結車両の運転支援システムは、取得した連結角θに基づく情報をドライバーに提示して、連結車両の運転を支援するように構成される。【選択図】図4
