 HISTORY
 First installed in 1876.
 On April 1900, Robert Twyfrod from USA
got the patent for the first four wheel
drive system.
 In 1926 demonstrated the first PSS.
 On agricultural tractors in the early 1950’s.
 Suitable for small to medium tractors
where power steering can be an option to
manual steering.

 Components in power
steering

 Reservoir
 Steering gear box
 Rotary valve
 Pump
5
RESERVOIR

6
Steering gear box

• Steering gears are

enclosed in a casing
known as steering
gear box

7
 Rotary valve
 A rotary valve for a power steering system
includes a valve sleeve in which a rotor is
rotatably carried for controlling fluid flow
from a supply pump to a cylinder of the
power steering system.

8
 Pump

 Driven by vehicle’s engine.

 Amount of flow depends on engine’s
speed.

Electro- Hydraulic system
• Hybrid System
• Use the same hydraulic assist
technology as standard
systems.
• Electric motor instead of being
belt-driven by the engine.

13
 Electric system
It Mainly Contains :-
EPS ECU
Motor.

Sensor.

• Complication
• weights
• Maintainance
• Response
• Power consumption
16
 APPLICATIONS
 Now a days, these are used in
almost all the heavy vehicles.

17
 ADVANTAGES
 Reducing the driver’s fatigue.
 Low input torque and continuous steering
function.
 Oil output directly proportional to the
steering speed.

18
 DISADVANTAGES

 Leakage

 Less Durability

 Vibration

19
 CONCLUSION

 By studying all these, we can conclude

that the power steering is necessary
for the modern cars.
 It provides good handling to the driver,
gives better comfort, and make him
less fatigue.
