How many types of automobile steering systems are there?

The automobile steering system is an important part of a car. A series of devices used to change or maintain the driving or reverse direction of the car is called the automobile steering system. Generally speaking, current automobile steering systems are mainly divided into two categories, one is mechanical steering system, and the other is power steering system. Let’s talk about the mechanical steering system first.

The mechanical steering system uses the driver's physical strength as the steering energy. All power transmission components of this type of steering system are made of machinery. At the same time, the mechanical steering system is composed of three major parts: the operating mechanism, the steering gear and the steering transmission mechanism. of. The mechanical steering system has precise control, direct road feel, rich information feedback, mature technology, good reliability, and low average manufacturing cost. However, the disadvantage of the mechanical steering system is that the driver will feel that the steering system is heavier and the operating feel is poor when operating the vehicle.

Then there's the power steering system. The power steering system is a steering system that uses both the driver's physical strength and engine power as steering energy. Under normal circumstances, only a small part of the energy required by the power steering system is provided by the driver, and most of the other energy is provided by the power steering system. Steering gear provided. The reliability of the power steering system is very high. At the same time, the driver will not feel that the steering wheel is too heavy when controlling the vehicle, but will feel that the steering wheel is very light. However, power steering systems are more expensive to manufacture than mechanical steering systems.
