ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring the steering angle of a steerable vehicle wheel comprises first and second electric angle measurement instruments interconnected by an elastic tensile member and electronic circuitry connected to the angle measurement instruments. The first angle measurement instrument is attached to the wheel by a pivotal measuring arm at a generally perpendicular axis to the wheel. The second angle measurement instrument is attached to a measuring base by a pivotal measuring arm and is arranged approximately along the axis of rotation of the wheel. The electronic circuitry receives signals issued by the angle measurement instruments and processes these signals to generate a steering angle signal. A display device is provided and is connected to the electronic circuitry. The apparatus can also be used to measure the track differential angle for each steerable wheel of the vehicle.
