Automotive power steering is part of a vehicle’s steering system. The main function of a power steering gear is to convert rotational motion of the steering wheel into linear motion and thus control the direction of the wheels.
Power steering gears are present in both hydraulic power steering and electronic power steering systems. The rack and pinion gear system consists of two gears: a circular gear called pinion and a linear gear called rack. As a rotational force of steering wheel is applied to the pinion, the teeth of the pinion moves the linear rack. Thus, the rack and pinion gear system converts rotation motion into linear motion and controls the direction of the steering wheel. In recirculating ball power steering gears, the worm gear is attached to the end of a steering column. A ball nut rack is mounted on the worm gear. Two sets of balls are provided in the grove of the worm gear and ball nut rack. The balls helps in reducing friction during the movement of the nut rack on the worm gear. The nut rack is provided with teeth outside and is connected to the pitman arm. When rotation force of the steering wheel is applied, the ball nut racks move in a linear fashion. Thus, rotation motion of steering wheel is converted to linear motion and controls the direction of the steering wheel. Rack and pinion gears are generally found in passenger vehicles and light commercial vehicles and recirculating ball power steering gears are found in heavy commercial vehicles.
