Problems solved by technology

However, in this case, a large-scale power steering device is required, and a high-voltage and large-capacity power supply is also required
Therefore, the size and cost of the steering control device cannot be avoided, and the vehicle mountability of the steering control device will decrease.

Abstract

The invention aims to reduce the possibility of a power assistance failure because of the phenomenon that steering assisting power producible by an electric power steering device is lower than the steering assisting power required for the electric power steering device. A power steering control device comprises an electric power steering device, a steering ratio varying device for varying the steering ratio by driving an output member relatively to an input member driven by the steering operation by the driver, and a control device for controlling the steering ratio varying device. When the difference between the maximum value of the steering drive speed range of the steering wheel for which a required steering assisting power producible by the power steering device and an actual steeringdrive speed of the steering wheel is small, the control device decreases the relative drive speed of the output member with respect to the input member by the steering ratio varying device in contrast to the large difference.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a steering control device for a vehicle, and more specifically, to a steering control device for a vehicle including an electric power steering device that generates steering assist force and a steering ratio variable device that changes the steering ratio of the steering wheels The steering angle changes the ratio of the amount of motion relative to the amount of steering manipulation by the driver. Background technique [0002] As one of steering control devices for vehicles such as automobiles, the following steering control devices are known. The steering control device includes: an electric power steering device that generates steering assist force for steering the steering wheels; The variable device changes the steering ratio by driving the output member relatively to the input member driven by the driver's steering operation. [0003] In addition, for example, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Op...
