汽车转向系统
随着汽车电子技术的迅猛发展,人们对汽车转向操纵性能的要求也日益提高。汽车转向系统已从传统机械转向、液压助力转向(Hydraulic Power Steering ,简称HPS) 、电控液压助力转向( Electric Hydraulic PowerSteering , 简称EHPS) ,发展到电动助力转向系统(Electric Power Steering ,简称EPS) ,最终还将过渡到线控转向系统(Steer By Wire ,简称SBW)。
机械转向系统是指以驾驶员的体力作为转向能源,其中所有传力件都是机械的,汽车的转向运动是由驾驶员操纵方向盘,通过转向器和一系列的杆件传递到转向车轮而实现的。机械转向系由转向操纵机构、转向器和转向传动机械3大部分组成。
通常根据机械式转向器形式可以分为:齿轮齿条式、循环球式、蜗杆滚轮式、蜗杆指销式。应用最广的两种是齿轮齿条式和循环球式(用于需要较大的转向力时) 。在循环球式转向器中,输入转向圈与输出的转向摇臂摆角是成正比的;在齿轮齿条式转向器中,输入转向圈数与输出的齿条位移是成正比的。循环球式转向器由于是滚动摩擦形式,因而正传动效率很高,操作方便且使用寿命长,而且承载能力强,故广泛应用于载货汽车上。齿轮齿条式转向器与循环球式相比,最大特点是刚性大,结构紧凑重量轻,且成本低。由于这种方式容易由车轮将反作用力传至转向盘,所以具有对路面状态反应灵敏的优点,但同时也容易产生打手和摆振等现象,且其承载效率相对较弱,故主要应用于小汽车及轻型货车上,目前大部分低端轿车采用的就是齿轮齿条式机械转向系统。 随着车辆载重的增加以及人们对车辆操纵性能要求的提高,简单的机械式转向系统已经无法满足需要,动力转向系统应运而生,它能在驾驶员转动方向盘的同时提供助力,动力转向系统分为液压转向系统和电动转向系统2 种。其中液压转向系统是目前使用最为广泛的转向系统。
液压转向系统在机械系统的基础上增加了液压系统,包括液压泵、V 形带轮、油管、供油装置、助力装置和控制阀。它借助于汽车发动机的动力驱动液压泵、空气压缩机和发电机等,以液力、气力或电力增大驾驶员操纵前轮转向的力量,使驾驶员可以轻便灵活地操纵汽车转向,减轻了劳动强度,提高了行驶安全性。
液压助力转向系统从发明到现在已经有了大约半个世纪的历史,可以说是一种较为完善的系统,由于其工作可靠、技术成熟至今仍被广泛应用。它由液压泵作为动力源,经油管道控制阀向动力液压缸供油,通过活塞杆带动转向机构动作,可通过改变缸径及油压的大小来改变助力的大小,由此达到转向助力的作用。传统液压式动力转向系统一般按液流的形式可以分为:常流式和常压式2 种类型,也可根据控制阀形式分为转阀式和滑阀式。
随着液压动力转向系统在汽车上的日益普及,人们对操作时的轻便性和路感的要求也日益提高,然而液压动力转向系统却存在许多的缺点: ①由于其本身的结构决定了其
无法保证车辆在任何工况下转动转向盘时,都有较理想的操纵稳定性,即无法同时保证低速时的转向轻便性和高速时的操纵稳定性; ②汽车的转向特性受驾驶员驾驶技术的影响严重;③转向传动比固定,使汽车转向响应特性随车速、侧向加速度等变化而变化,驾驶员必须提前针对汽车转向特性幅值和相位的变化进行一定的操作补偿,从而控制汽车按其意愿行驶。这样增加了驾驶员的操纵负担,也使汽车转向行驶中存在不安全隐患;而此后出现了电控液压助力系统,它在传统的液压动力转向系统的基础上增加速度传感器,使汽车能够随着车速的变化自动调节操纵力的大小,在一定程度上缓和了传统的液压转向系统存在的问题。
目前我国生产的商用车和轿车上采用的大多是电控液压助力转向系统,它是比较成熟和应用广泛的转向系统。尽管电控液压助力装置从一定程度上缓解了传统的液压转向中轻便性和路感之间的矛盾,然而它还是没有从根本上解决HPS 系统存在的不足,随着汽车微电子技术的发展,汽车燃油节能的要求以及全球性倡导环保,其在布置、安装、密封性、操纵灵敏度、能量消耗、磨损与噪声等方面的不足已越来越明显,转向系统向着电动助力转向系统发展。
电动助力转向系统是现在汽车转向系统的发展方向,其工作原理是:EPS 系统的ECU 对来自转向盘转矩传感器和车速传感器的信号进行分析处理后,控制电机产生适当的助力转矩,协助驾驶员完成转向操作。近几年来,随着电子技术的发展,大幅度降低EPS的成本已成为可能,日本的大发汽车公司、三菱汽车公司、本田汽车公司、美国的Delphi 汽车系统公司、TRW公司及德国的ZF 公司都相继研制出EPS。Mercedes2Benz 和Siemens Automotive 两大公司共同投资6500万英镑用于开发EPS ,目标是到2002 年装车,年产300 万套,成为全球EPS 制造商。到目前为止,EPS 系统在轻微型轿车、厢式车上得到广泛的应用,并且每年以300 万台的速度发展。
转向是一个专业术语,适用于采集部件,联系等,其中允许一艘(舰船)或汽车(轿车)按照预期的方向行驶. 一个例外的情况是铁路运输由路轨组合在一起铁路道岔提供转向功能。
许多现代轿车使用齿轮齿条式转向器,在方向盘末端有转动齿轮;该齿轮带动齿条移动,它是一种线性的齿轮紧密配合,从一边到一边。这种运动把转矩通过转向横拉杆和一种叫做转向节臂的短形臂传递给转向轮的主销。
以前的设计往往采用循环球式转向器,而这种转向器仍然应用在卡车和多用途车辆。这是一种老式的螺母和齿扇设计,该转向管柱转动大螺丝(\蜗轮\,它与一个齿扇齿轮啮合,当蜗轮转动时,齿扇也随之转动,一个安装在齿扇轴上且与转向联动有关的摇臂带动转向节臂 ,从而使车轮转动. 循环球式转向器通过安装滚珠减少螺母和螺杆之间的摩擦;两根导管和螺母内的螺旋管状通道组合成两条各自独立的封闭的钢球“流到”。
齿轮齿条式转向器设计具有很大程度的反馈和直接转向\路感\它也通常不会有任
何反弹,或呆滞。缺点是,它是不可调的,因此当它磨损唯一的解决办法更换。 循环球式转向器的优点是机械优势,因此,它被使用在较大较重的车辆,而齿轮齿条式原本仅限于较小和较轻;由于几乎普遍采用动力转向系统,不过,这已不再是一个重要的优势,导致越来越多地在新型汽车应用齿轮齿条式转向器。 循环球式转向器设计在中心也有明显的冲击,或\死点\。凡一分钟交替方向盘出不来并不移动转向机构;这是很容易可调螺杆的端部来减少磨损,但它并不能完全消除或机制开始磨损很快。 这项设计目前仍在使用中,在卡车和其他大型车辆,也应用于迅速转向,路感与稳健性,可维护性,和机械的优势相比不太重要的场合。 较小程度的反馈,这样的设计也有时是一种优点;当前轮碰撞时,使用齿轮齿条转向的司机只有自己的大拇指受伤,造成方向盘揭开一边突然(因为驾驶教练告诉学生把自己的大拇指在前面的方向盘,而非放在左右的内边缘). 这种效果在像卡车一样的重型汽车更为明显;循环球式转向防止这种程度的反馈,只是因为它可以在正常情况下防止可取反馈。
转向连锁连接转向器和车轮通常符合一个阿克曼转向几何的变化,它交代了一个事实:当转向是,内轮转过的半径比外轮小得多,因此适合驾驶的直路,是不适合曲折。 由于车辆已成为较重而改用前轮驱动,为了扭转方向盘,通常的,主要的是体力。为了解决这一问题,汽车业发展的动力转向系统。 有两种类型的助力转向系统-液压和电气/电子。 还有一种液压-电动混合系统。
液压助力转向系统(hps)利用油压供应的一个发动机驱动泵,以协助将方向盘转转动。 电动助力转向系统(EPS)方式,是较有效率的液压助力转向系统,由于电动助力转向汽车只需要提供协助时,方向盘被转动,而液压泵必须不断运行。 在EPS的帮助下是很容易调节车型,最高车速,甚至驾驶的喜好。 另外一个好处是,通过泄漏和处置动力转向液消除对环境构成危险 。
动力转向的分支是速度可调转向而转向是大量辅助以低速行驶,稍微协助高速。 汽车制造商认位,当要停车时驾驶人可能需要做出大量转向投入,但当时高速行驶时则不然。第一辆有这特点的汽车,是雪铁龙与其diravi,虽然改变了现代汽车转向系统资金的投入,但它改变了定心凸轮的压力,使得方向盘尽力去回到原来的位置。现代速度可调式动力转向系统,当速度增长时减少了活塞的压力 ,给予更直接的感受,这一特点在所有新车正逐渐成为司空见惯。
The motor turning system
Along with automobile electronic technology swift and violent development, the people also day by day enhance to the motor turning handling quality request. The motor turning system changed, the hydraulic pressure boost from the traditional machinery changes (Hydraulic Power Steering, is called HPS), the electrically controlled hydraulic pressure boost changes (Electric Hydraulic Power Steering, is called EHPS), develops the electrically operated boost steering system (Electric Power Steering, is called EPS), finally also will transit to the line controls the steering system (Steer By Wire, will be called SBW).
The machinery steering system is refers by pilot's physical strength achievement changes the energy, in which all power transmission all is mechanical, the automobile changes the movement is operates the steering wheel by the pilot, transmits through the diverter and a series of members changes the wheel to realize. The mechanical steering system by changes the control mechanism, the diverter and major part changes the gearing 3 to be composed.
Usually may divide into according to the mechanical diverter form: The gear rack type, follows round the world -like, the worm bearing adjuster hoop type, the worm bearing adjuster refers sells the type. Is the gear rack type and follows using the broadest two kinds round the world -like (uses in needing time big steering force).In follows round the world -like in the diverter, the input changes the circle and the output steering arm pivot angle is proportional; In the gear rack type diverter, the input changes the turn and the output rack displacement is proportional. Follows round the world -like the diverter because is the rolling friction form, thus the transmission efficiency is very high, the ease of operation also the service life are long, moreover bearing capacity, therefore widely applies on the truck. The gear rack type diverter with follows round the world -like compares, the most major characteristic is the rigidity is big, the structure compact weight is light, also the cost is low. Because this way passes on easily by the wheel the reacting force to the steering wheel, therefore has to the pavement behavior response keen merit, but simultaneously also easy to have phenomena and so on goon and oscillation, also its load bearing efficiency relative weak, therefore mainly applies on the compact car and the pickup truck, at present the majority of low end passenger vehicle uses is the gear rack type machinery steering system.
Along with the vehicles carrying capacity increase as well as the people to the vehicles handling quality request enhancement, the simple mechanical type steering system were
already unable to meet the needs, the power steering system arise at the historic moment, it could rotate the steering wheel while the pilot to provide the boost, the power steering system divides into the hydraulic pressure steering system and the electrically operated steering system 2kinds.Hydraulic pressure steering system is at present uses the most widespread steering system.
The hydraulic pressure steering system increased the hydraulic system in the mechanical system foundation, including hydraulic pump, V shape band pulley, drill tubing, feed installment, boost installment and control valve. It with the aid of in the motor car engine power actuation hydraulic pump, the air compressor and the generator and so on, by the fluid strength, the physical strength or the electric power increases the pilot to operate the strength which the front wheel changes, enables the pilot to be possible nimbly to operate motor turning facilely, reduced the labor intensity, enhanced the travel security.
The hydraulic pressure boost steering system from invented already had about half century history to the present, might say was one kind of more perfect system, because its work reliable, the technology mature still widely is applied until now. It takes the power supply by the hydraulic pump, after oil pipe-line control valves to power hydraulic cylinder feed, through the connecting rod impetus rotation gear movement, may changes the boost through the change cylinder bore and the flowing tubing head pressure size the size, from this achieved changes the boost the function. The traditional hydraulic pressure type power steering system may divide into generally according to the liquid flow form: Ordinary flow type and atmospheric pressure type 2 kind of types, also may divide into according to the control valve form transfers the valve type and the slide-valve type.
Along with hydraulic pressure power steering system on automobile daily popularization, the people to operates when the portability and the road feeling request also day by day enhance, however the hydraulic pressure power steering system has many shortcomings actually: ①Because its itself structure had decided it is unable to guarantee vehicles rotates the steering wheel when any operating mode, all has the ideal operation stability, namely is unable simultaneously to guarantee time the low speed changes the portability and the high speed time operation stability;②The automobile changes the characteristic to drive the pilot technical the influence to be serious; ③The steering ratio is fixed, causes the motor turning response characteristic along with changes and so on vehicle speed, transverse acceleration to
