Abstract
An electronically controlled fluid suspension system for adjusting a vehicle's attitude rapidly controls the vehicle height: by providing and blocking the fluid communication between fluid springs and reserve tanks; and by shifting the damping force of shock absorbers to a higher degree in response to the change of the vehicle height. As a result, it can avoid the late control of the vehicle height and prevent the vibration of the vehicle body due to the vehicle height's adjustment, thereby enhancing riding comfort.
