When rotary valve 2 is in neutral position, 15 liang of chambers of left part chamber 14 and right part chamber communicate(Rotary valve 2 is in neutral position When putting, each hydraulic fluid port intercommunication of rotary valve 2, therefore left part chamber 14 and right part chamber 15 are the intercommunications by rotary valve 2), fluid Fuel tank is flowed back to by oil return opening 22, therefore power cylinder 11 does not work completely, now vehicle is in straight trip operating mode, reference picture Shown in 1.When clockwise together with valve core upon starting rotation steering wheel, steering spindle(It is schematically illustrate)During rotation, because being subject to turn The road surface steering drag transmitted to joint arm, power cylinder piston 12 and steering rack can not temporarily be moved, therefore tooth sector is temporary transient Can not be with steering axes.
So, the torque for passing to tooth sector by steering spindle can only make torsion bar produce a little torsional deflection, make steering spindle(I.e. Valve core)It is able to relative tooth sector(That is valve pocket)Little angle is turned over, so that rotary valve 2 makes the right part chamber of power cylinder 11 15 oil suction chambers for turning into high pressure, left part chamber 14 turns into the oil back chamber of low pressure.Act on hydraulic pressure to the left on power cylinder piston 12 Active force, helps tooth sector to force steering rack to start action, so as to drive knuckle band motor car wheel to deflect to the right.
Meanwhile, tooth sector also begins to be rotate in same direction with steering spindle in itself, if steering wheel is rotated further, turns round torsion of bar and becomes Shape just exists always, and the right turn position residing for rotary valve 2 is also constant, once steering wheel stops operating, power cylinder 11 is temporary transient Work is also continued to, causes tooth sector to be rotated further, reduce the torsional deflection of torsion bar, until torsion bar affranchises state, turned Valve 2 returns to neutral position, and power cylinder 11 is stopped, and now, steering wheel is to be parked in motionless on a certain position, then wheel Corner is also maintained for necessarily.
When being rotated counterclockwise for steering wheel, the movement of torsion bar, the rotation direction of the valve core of rotary valve 2 and power cylinder piston 12 Direction is contrary to the above, and deflecting roller is deflected to the left, is not detailed herein.
It should be appreciated that described above is only illustrative, it is impossible to be not understood as to hint of the invention or limitation.It is right For those skilled in the art, reading on the basis of specification above disclosure, prior art can combined Above-mentioned technical proposal or technical characteristic are replaced and/or changed.
