What exactly are we referring to when we talk about an electric hydraulic steering?
The premise is that the hydraulic steering is synonymous with dry steering, so the two terms identify the same automotive component.
The electric hydraulic steering is a type of power steering that has the purpose of facilitating steering of the vehicle. Its advantages are innumerable, but the main ones undoubtedly include:
- A greater degree of comfort for the driver
- Reduced steering response even in rough terrain
- Reduced effort to maneuver
In practice, the electric hydraulic steering is a system of steering assistance system, which exploits the power generated by an electric motor instead of that of a hydraulic pump driven by the engine (in this case, one would speak of hydraulic steering).
Another of the qualities that distinguish the electric hydraulic steering is its ability to guarantee significant energy savings. To this must be added a reduced noise of the medium and a considerable increase in reliability of the equipment.
The electric hydraulic steering can therefore be considered an automotive component that combines high performance with a more marked respect for the environment, a currently fundamental approach that, slowly but inexorably, is taking hold in the entire automotive sector, increasingly oriented towards less invasive on an ecological and greener level.
The electric hydraulic steering is generally composed of an oil tank, a 70 bar operating gear pump and driven by the engine, a four-light distributor, a distributor control device located in the steering column and an operating cylinder. Inside it is placed a plunger that divides the cylinder into two different chambers.
In the electric hydraulic steering, the steering response is directly linked to the vehicle’s speed: the more it increases, the enslavement is reduced and the steering effort becomes more evident. It is precisely through this seemingly simple mechanism that we achieve greater precision and safety in terms of driving.
