Schema of electro-mechanical powered assisted steering system

Managing Activities 3
a)
i. Major parts of a hydromechanics assisted steering system
1. steering wheel-initiates the signal that leads to wheel movement
2. pivot-helps to provide the self-centering of the steering wheel
3. Cylinder-provides the hydraulic force that moves the wheels
4. Axle-transmits the force required to move the wheel
5. Piston rod-provides the force needed to turn the wheels
ii.
Major parts of electro-mechanical power assisted steering system
1. Steering wheel -initiates the wheel turning process
2. torsion bar-twists in motion relative to steering movement
3. Hydraulic circuit-provides the electric power to turn the wheels
4. Electric motor-reduces energy needed to turn the steering
5. Hydraulic chamber-transmits the force necessary to turn the wheels.
