Patent attributes
An assembly for adjusting the attitude of any selected portion a structure such as a motor vehicle. A controller connects to and controls one or more jacks operable to change the attitude of a structure. A proportional tilt sensor is connected to the controller and is supported on the structure. The tilt sensor provides signals to the controller, which represent the degree of longitudinal pitch and lateral roll of a portion of the structure the sensor is connected to. The controller moves a selected portion of the structure into a desired attitude by commanding movement of the entire structure into an attitude where the tilt sensor signals match any one of a number of preset reference values corresponding to the desired attitude of the selected portion of the structure.
