Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, there is a problem with these existing methods: they cannot be applied to planetary gear systems
[0010] In short, according to the prior art, it is impossible to reduce the backlash between the sun gear and the planetary gear, and reduce the backlash between the planetary gear and the ring gear

Abstract

A variable gear ratio steering apparatus for an automobile includes an input shaft connected to a steering wheel; a sun gear coaxially formed with the input shaft while enclosing the input shaft; a first pair of planet gears externally meshing with the sun gear; a second pair of planet gears externally meshing with the sun gear; a first carrier coupled to the input shaft while connecting the first pair of planet gears; a second carrier adapted to rotate relative to the input shaft while connecting the second pair of planet gears; a ring gear internally meshing with the first and second pairs of planet gears; and an input shaft connected to the ring gear. The second carrier is inserted into the first carrier while being supported by a compression means so that the second carrier can rotate relative to the input shaft. This reduces backlash.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a steering system with a variable transmission ratio for a motor vehicle. More particularly, the present invention relates to a variable ratio steering apparatus for automobiles having a planetary gear system including a sun gear, a first planet carrier, and a second planet carrier, the second planet carrier being Inserted into the first planet carrier and supported by the pressing device at the same time, so that the second planet carrier can perform relative rotation around the sun gear, so as to reduce the backlash. Background technique [0002] As is well known in the art, a planetary gear system includes: a sun gear; planet gears that mesh externally with the sun gear while being supported by a planet carrier; and ring gears that mesh internally with the planet gears. If necessary, the planetary gear system can adopt a simpler structure. The sun gear, the planetary gear, and the ring gear can serve as a fixed member, an ...
