Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile mechanical steering, and specifically refers to a commercial vehicle multifunctional electric recirculating ball steering system and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] The steering system commonly used in existing commercial vehicles is the Hydraulic Power Steering (HPS) system. Compared with the purely mechanical steering system, the HPS system has the advantages of mature and reliable technology, low cost, and can effectively improve the problem of heavy steering. However, it has high The steering stability is poor at high speeds, and the steering feels heavy at low speeds such as turning around on the spot. In order to solve these problems, domestic and foreign experts and scholars put forward improved electronically controlled hydraulic power steering (ECHPS) system and electrohydraulic power steering (EHPS) system on the basis of HPS system. Although the new technolog...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a commercial vehicle multifunctional electric recirculating ball steering system and its control method, so as to solve the problems of the commercial vehicle electric power steering with less power and reliable steering by wire in the prior art. Poor performance and the single function of the steering system is difficult to adapt to the future development of the vehicle; the present invention combines the dual-rotor motor and a set of ordinary power-assisted motors to work together on the input end of the recirculating ball steering gear, and utilizes the high redundancy of the dual-rotor motor. The characteristics of high output torque and good reliability of wire control, and it is equipped with a shift fork assembly for synchronous and asynchronous rotation of the dual rotors, so as to realize the functions of wire control steering and electric power steering, and give full play to the advantages of recirculating ball steering High reduction ratio capability maximizes system power assist torque, realizes electric power assist function, simplifies the system, provides wire control function and ensures system reliability at the same time
