Embodiment Construction

[0024] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0025] figure 1 It is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an electric power steering device 100 according to the embodiment.

[0026] The electric power steering device 100 (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as "steering device 100") is a driving device for arbitrarily changing the traveling direction of a vehicle, and the present embodiment exemplifies a structure applied to an automobile.

[0027] The steering device 100 includes: a wheel-shaped steering wheel (steering wheel) 101 operated by a driver; and a steering shaft 102 integrally provided with the steering wheel 101 . Furthermore, the steering device 100 includes: an upper connecting shaft 103 connected to the steering shaft 102 via a universal joint 103a; and a lower connecting shaft 108 connected to the upper connecting shaft 103 via a universal joint 103b. The lower connecting...

Abstract

An electric power steering apparatus includes: a detector (210) that detects a value corresponding to a steering torque of a steering wheel (101); a correcting unit (220) that corrects a detection value detected by the detector (210) by taking into account a hysteresis between an actual steering torque and the detection value detected by the detector; and a target current calculating unit (20) that calculates a target current which is supplied to an electric motor (110) on the basis of a corrected detection value corrected by the correcting unit (220). The correcting unit (220) makes a correction by using a correction value corresponding to the detection value detected by the detector (210) so as to make the hysteresis small in a case where the steering torque is small and large in a case where the steering torque is large.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electric power steering device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, electric power steering devices have been proposed that control the amount of current flowing into a motor based on the magnitude of steering force detected by a torque sensor. [0003] For example, the electric power steering device described in Patent Document 1 includes: an electric motor that supplies power to the steering mechanism to assist steering force; a torque sensor that detects the steering force; A control circuit that controls the amount of current flowing into the motor. And, the torque sensor is composed of the following parts: a torsion shaft connecting the input shaft and the output shaft on the same axis, a magnet installed at the end of the input shaft, a set of yokes installed at the end of the output shaft, and a set of yokes that detect the Magnetic sensors for magnetic flux density generated between yokes, etc. [0004]...
