A device for operating a chassis of a two-track vehicle, in which each vehicle wheel is assigned a suspension spring, which carries the static body weight of the vehicle, and a vertical dynamics actuator, which is actuatable by a vertical dynamics control unit, having a tipping detection function which detects a tipping situation with a roll-over risk in which there is a danger that the vehicle will tip sideways on a transversely inclined roadway. When a roll-over risk is detected, the vertical dynamics control unit actuates the vertical dynamics actuators to avoid roll-over.

Device for operating a chassis of a two-track vehicle

A vehicle having an active chassis system with curve tilting function, comprises a control unit, which when negotiating a curve determines a vehicle tilting angle on the basis of a current vehicle transverse acceleration or a correlated driving operation parameter, by which the vehicle transverse acceleration can be reduced, wherein the control unit uses the vehicle tilting angle so determined to trigger actuators of a suspension/shock absorbing system in order to adjust the vehicle tilting angle. The curve tilting function incorporates a prediction unit which provides the curve negotiation data for an upcoming curve. The vehicle tilting angle is set in consideration of the curve negotiation data.
