  • Power Steering
    Module-3 POWER STEERING Introduction: The steering system of a vehicle is one of its key components. In a hydraulic power steering system, the effort required to turn the wheel of a vehicle by the rotation of the steering wheel is reduced with the help of hydraulic assistance. Power steering is an advanced form of steering system in which the overall effort required by the driver is reduced through an increase in the force applied on the steering wheel with the help of either electric or hydraulic assistance. In a normal steering mechanism, in comparison to the power steering mechanism, there is no hydraulic or electrical assistance to reduce the effort of turning the steering wheel. The rest of the mechanical components and their working remain the same between the two steering systems, minus the parts which are exclusive to a power steering system. Three main types of power steering: • Hydraulic Power Steering: In a hydraulic power steering system, the effort required to turn the wheel of a vehicle by the rotation of the steering wheel is reduced with the help of hydraulic assistance. When the steering wheel is turned, a hydraulic pump, which draws power from the vehicle’s engine, starts to pump hydraulic fluid through the system’s lines. This high-pressure hydraulic fluid then enters a cylinder and exerts force on the cylinder piston. This piston then pushes the hydraulic fluid ahead of it through the system’s lines, which in turn exerts pressure on the rack and pinion, coupling arrangement, multiplying the input force several times and resulting in the rotation of the vehicle’s front wheels.
