AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Traditional two-stage electrically adjustable steering columns are too bulky to accommodate large travel, making them unsuitable for the vehicle's pre-reserved installation space, and they lack an effective energy-absorbing structure.

Method used

Design a three-section telescopic electrically adjustable steering column, which uses a motor to drive the three sections of the column to retract and extend simultaneously. Combined with a helical gear and lead screw nut structure, it can achieve long-distance axial adjustment and absorb impact force through an energy-absorbing band during impact.

Benefits of technology

It achieves the shortest possible total length of the tubing, a compact structure, good compatibility, meets the installation requirements of the entire vehicle, and has a collapsible energy absorption function to protect the driver's safety.
