Overview ofDevelopment on Vehicle EPS System

Abstract

The currentdevelopment of an electric power steering(EPS) system in an automobile is explicated. The structure, types and characteristics of electric power steering system are introduced. The modeling technologies for electric power steering system and control strategies are analyzed and compared. The development trend of electric power steering system in an automobile is also discussed. It is pointed that the electric power steering technology is one orientation ofpower steering technologies in the future, and whichwill occupy a predominantposition in power steering field.

1EPS system types and characteristics

1.1EPS system classification

The early development of EPS system is low in steering type car。Present 4 types of EPS system are based on rack-and pinion steering system,The installation position according to power motors can be divided into different:Type booster steering、Small gear power type、Double small gear power type and Rack power type。The steering the instrumentality of motor power type EPS installed in the steering,Motor power torque through increased after worm worm gear deceleration in the steering directly added twist。Its advantage is motor can be installed in any position hacking,Relative to other several types minimum cost;The drawback to motor torque ripple effects of driver feel bigger。The drawback to motor torque ripple effects of driver feel bigger,The instrumentality of torque motor added in small gear axle directly。Advantage: rigid, steering road to feel strong。Double pinion steering rack boosts type EPS are installed on two small gear, A small gear and steering plate connected, power motors through another pinion and rack meshing, provide power for rack. Advantage: can provide relatively large pow.

1.2EPS system merit

EPS system and the traditional hydraulic power steering system has the following advantages compared

（1)EPS in various riding condition can provides the best efforts。In the car or parking at Treasury and low-speed steering provide enough power for the driver，In high-speed steering made drivers have good road feeling，And reduce caused by pavement of rough disturbance of steering system，Improving auto steering characteristics。

（2）Improve the car fuel economy，Urban conditions can improve fuel economy.

(3) the average 5%, saving fuel 3. EPS system only when the vehicle steering only provide power, U nlike traditional hydraulic power steering system even in don't turn,Pumps have been running.

（3）EPS system structure is compact, parts, convenient in installation and smaller number to assemble, enhanced the labor productivity due to tell the packed in engine pulleys and oil pump, set aside of the space can be used to install other parts of FIAT Punto production company adopted DELPHI company developed the electric power steering system, loading time reduced around 80 percent.

（4）EPS system cancelled hydraulic loop, there is no oil leakage and oil leakage problem, reduce the pollution to the environment, and save a lot of steering oil.

（5）EPS system has the function of self diagnosis, convenient in maintenance and maintenance.

（6）EPS system has good low temperature performance, even in 40 environment, EPS system also can work very well, has higher reliability and safety.

（7）EPS system's biggest advantage is the performance of the whole system can not changing the system structure of the cases, by changing the system control strategy of programming realize, in order to meet different models and different driving feel the need, greatly reduced the development cost and improve the efficiency of development.
