The specific embodiment
The technical scheme that its technical matters that solves the utility model adopts comprises the torque sensor by the bearing circle direct drive, and the miniature gears of its underpart drives tooth bar 8; Rotation direction sensor 9 detects moment and the position signal on the steering shaft, records vehicle speed signal with car speed sensor and constantly imports the microcomputer control unit that is installed in the storage battery below; Steer motor 10 is loaded on the inwall at column jecket 7 middle parts, deflector middle part; At deflector middle part column jecket inwall, retarder is installed, this speed reduction gearing is taked the circulating ball formula reducing gear supporting with the rotor inner casing; The shell of rack shaft and left and right sides intermediate rod (1,2,5,6).
Described electric booster steering device also has rotary angle transmitter, and this sensor belongs to electromagnetic sensor, can be with the steering angle signal output of steer motor to control unit.
Described steering torque sensor comprises two parts, be installed in respectively bearing circle input shaft and turn on the output shaft of miniature gears;
Described steer motor is the three phase alternating current motor of brushless, and stator coil connects for the three-phase double star, and rotor is the strong permanent magnetic formula.
Electric boosting steering system is to realize power-assisted steering swivel system by the work of turning control cell control steer motor.The steering torque of pilot control bearing circle passes to by steering gear and steering track rod on the wheel flutter of automobile; Meanwhile, electronic control unit according to steering torque, the speed of a motor vehicle of travelling at that time and certain designing requirement of pilot control bearing circle at present, calculates needed power steering again.And required power steering is to realize by the voltage and current of adjusting motor, so the steering torque that finally obtains on the wheel flutter is the chaufeur steering torque and turns to electric boosted sum (latter is much larger than the former).Electric turning booster system directly uses power supply, and it is the mechanical power of consumption of engine not, thus can directly not influence the running of driving engine, thereby than traditional hydraulic power-assist steering system fuel saving.
Steering torque sensor comprises two parts, be installed in respectively bearing circle input shaft and turn on the output shaft of miniature gears.(1) rotor portion is made of two-layer up and down, and all torque sensor is housed.Input shaft and output shaft are to be linked into an integrated entity by a thin metallic pin, and there is pin-and-hole the rotor portion top.Input shaft is that rigidity is connected with output shaft top, is that input shaft drives by the rotating shaft of vehicle steering.Its lower floor's rotor drives the translation that miniature gears promotes tooth bar, drives about wheel flutter to turn to.The top section of steering torque sensor is by the bearing circle direct drive, because the lower end does not have load, so its amount of spin and bearing circle rotating shaft are synchronous fully.But the underclad portion of torque sensor has and turns to miniature gears (certain resistance is arranged), middlely drives by thin torsion bar, causes the amount of spin of lower floor's rotor less relatively, and it is poor that this just causes upper and lower layer rotor mechanically can produce relative angular displacement.When motor turning, when different road conditionss ran into different cornering resistances, these two the rotating shaft meetings of input shaft and output shaft produced and turn to the corresponding differential seat angle of level of torque.(2) stationary part also has two-layer coil up and down, the top and the bottom of respective rotor respectively.Stator coil partly has two kinds of coils to distribute, and is respectively excitation coil and magnetic test coil, and the thin wire and the external world that have seven different colours on it get in touch.Its excitation coil to the coil of rotor portion by electromagnetic induction excitation magnetic action-magnetic test coil then will import, the angular difference up and down (turning to torque) of output shaft detects, carry electric signal to electronic control unit, this electric signal is the phase difference with two row sinusoidal waveforms on the stator coil, reflection torque sensing this moment.
At deflector middle part column jecket inwall, assist motor and retarder are installed.Assist motor is the three phase alternating current motor of brushless, and stator coil connects for the three-phase double star, and rotor is the strong permanent magnetic formula.The rotor inertia of this electric machine design is less, becomes steering operation when being convenient to running car flexibly.The change hand of rotation of this motor is extremely convenient, just carries out changing-over and can realize power steering operation rapidly three phase mains any two is alternate.And this motor has the characteristics of low noise, high torque (HT), can overcome the cornering resistance when travelling different kinds of roads, carries out flexible steering operation.Steer motor also has overheat protective function, when temperature surpasses specified value, is protection power supply and the unlikely overload of motor, and should limit the power-assisted electric current of motor this moment, till temperature descends the permissible value of stipulating.
For reducing the rotating speed of steer motor, to obtain bigger moment.Taked the circulating ball formula speed reduction gearing supporting with the rotor inner casing.Minimum steel ball circulating rolling in the groove of four dead smooths slows down, and gives the rack shaft moving linearly with transmission of power, promotes two wheel flutters and swings, and turns to drive automobile.Because steel ball is minimum, circulating rolling in the guide groove of retrofit.So rotational noise is atomic.
Rotary angle transmitter belongs to electromagnetic sensor, can be with the steering angle signal output of steer motor to control unit.This rotor sensor is a salient pole type, and rotor and rotor fuse.It is circular that stator coil is, and is enclosed within outside the rotor, by electromagnetic induction principle, detects the corner of rotor.When opening and inspecting, can not take off this rotary angle transmitter separately, in the time of can only be by the disintegration steering assembly, just can open and inspect.But can detect by the circuit connector on the stator.
Turning control cell is installed in the below of storage battery, and except that the processes sensor semiotic function was arranged, control unit promoted battery tension in addition, inversion is the function of three phase current electricity.Also shorten the cable length between control unit and the power steer assembly, can reduce the loss in voltage of circuit.
