Features of recirculating ball steering gear
The characteristics of the recirculating ball steering gear are: high efficiency, easy operation, and a smooth steering force characteristic curve.
Easy to arrange. It is especially suitable for large and medium-sized vehicles and power steering systems; it is easy to transmit the driver’s manipulation signal; it has high reverse efficiency, good return, and works well with the action of the hydraulic booster.
The characteristics of the gear ratio can be realized, and the requirements of easy handling are met. The steering force at the middle position is small, and it is often used, requiring the steering to be sensitive, so it is hoped that the speed ratio near the middle position is small to improve the sensitivity. The steering resistance at the large angle steering position is large, but the number of times of use is small, so it is hoped that the speed ratio at the large angle position is larger to reduce the steering force. Due to the fact that the recirculating ball steering gear can realize the variable speed ratio, the application is becoming more and more widespread.
