For a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , the existing steering system is described:

[0032] The steering system includes a steering power-assist circuit, an emergency steering circuit and a suspension lifting circuit. The steering power-assist circuit includes a steering pump, an oil supply control valve, a first flow control valve, an emergency valve, a steering gear, a power cylinder and a steering oil tank which are connected in sequence through pipelines. The oil supply control valve is a control valve having an oil inlet, two oil outlets and an oil return port. The first flow control valve is a control valve having an oil inlet, an oil outlet and an oil return port. The emergency valve is a control valve having two oil inlets, an oil outlet and an oil return port. Hydraulic oil is stored in the steering oil tank. One end of the steering pump is connected to the steering oil tank, and the other end is connected to the oil inlet of the oil supply control valve, i.e., port P. The first oil outlet of the oil supply control valve, i.e., port A, is connected to the oil inlet of the first flow control valve, i.e., port P. The oil return port of the oil supply control valve, i.e., port T, is connected to the steering oil tank. The oil outlet of the first flow control valve, i.e., port A, is connected to the first oil inlet of the emergency valve, i.e., port P1. The first flow The oil return port of the control valve, namely the T port, is connected to the steering oil tank, the oil return port of the emergency valve, namely the T port, is connected to the steering oil tank, one end of the oil inlet pipeline of the steering gear is connected to the oil outlet port of the emergency valve, namely the A port, and the other end is connected to the oil inlet of the power cylinder, one end of the oil outlet pipeline is connected to the oil outlet of the power cylinder, and the other end is connected to the steering oil tank, the emergency steering circuit includes an emergency pump, a second flow control valve, an emergency valve and a steering oil tank connected in sequence through pipelines, the oil inlet of the emergency pump is connected to the steering oil tank, the oil outlet is connected to the oil inlet port of the second flow control valve, namely the P port, the oil outlet port of the second flow control valve, namely the A port, is connected to the second oil inlet port of the emergency valve, namely the P2 port, and the oil return port is connected to the steering oil tank, the suspension lifting circuit includes a steering pump, an oil supply control valve, an ascending valve, a descending valve and a steering oil tank connected in sequence through pipelines, and also includes an oil-gas spring, the oil-gas spring is connected to the pipeline between the ascending valve and the descending valve, and the oil supply control valve, the ascending valve and the descending valve are solenoid valves.

[0033] When the vehicle is driving normally, the steering pump draws hydraulic oil from the steering tank to form the first high-pressure oil, which enters the P port of the oil supply control valve. The electromagnet in the oil supply control valve shall not be energized, and the first high-pressure oil flows out from the A port of the oil supply control valve and enters the P port of the first flow control valve. After being throttled by the first flow control valve, the first high-pressure oil enters the P1 port of the emergency valve. At the same time, the emergency pump draws hydraulic oil from the steering tank to form the second high-pressure oil, which enters the P port of the second flow control valve, and then flows out from the A port of the second flow control valve and enters the P2 port of the emergency valve. Since there is hydraulic oil at the P1 port, a pressure difference is generated on both sides of the upper valve core after passing through the throttle valve on the left, overcoming the spring force and pushing the valve core to the left position, so that the first high-pressure oil at the P1 port enters the A port of the emergency valve to provide power for the steering gear, and the second high-pressure oil at the P2 port enters the T port of the emergency valve and flows back to the steering tank.

[0034] When the engine or steering pump fails, the first high-pressure oil is not generated, that is, no hydraulic oil flows through the P1 port of the emergency valve. Under the action of vehicle inertia, the emergency pump draws hydraulic oil from the steering tank to form the second high-pressure oil that enters the P2 port. The valve core is in the right position under the action of the spring, and the second high-pressure oil from the P2 port enters the A port to provide power for the steering gear.

[0035] When the suspension is raised or lowered, the electromagnet in the oil supply control valve is energized, and the high-pressure oil generated by the steering pump flows out from port B of the oil supply control valve and enters the suspension lifting circuit. When the suspension needs to be raised, the rising valve is energized, the descending valve is de-energized, and the hydraulic oil enters the oil-gas spring, and the suspension rises. When the suspension is lowered, the rising valve is de-energized, the descending valve is energized, the oil supply circuit is disconnected, the oil drain circuit is opened, and the hydraulic oil in the oil-gas spring flows back to the steering tank through the descending valve.

[0036] Because the emergency pump is in working state for a long time, it generates more invalid energy consumption and increases fuel consumption.

[0038] The steering circuit includes a first steering circuit and a second steering circuit connected in parallel, and the first steering circuit and the second steering circuit are used to transmit the power generated by the steering power mechanism, such as transmitting high-pressure oil;

[0039] When the steering power mechanism is working normally, that is, when the vehicle is driving normally, the first steering circuit provides power to the steering actuator, and the second steering circuit performs suspension lifting and lowering work;

[0040] When the steering power mechanism fails, the second steering circuit provides power to the steering power mechanism;

[0043] Specifically, when switching through the first three-way reversing valve, it can be achieved by the hydraulic oil flowing out from different oil outlets. The hydraulic oil enters the first steering circuit through the oil inlet and the first oil outlet, and enters the second steering circuit through the oil inlet and the second oil outlet.

[0044] Optionally, the first steering circuit includes a control valve having an oil return port, the oil inlet of the control valve and the first oil outlet of the first three-way reversing valve are connected by a pipeline, the oil outlet is connected to the steering actuator, and the oil return port is connected to the hydraulic oil tank.

[0045] Optionally, the first steering circuit further comprises a one-way valve, which is arranged between the oil outlet of the first three-way reversing valve and the steering actuator, and the allowed flow direction of the one-way valve is from the oil outlet of the first three-way reversing valve to the steering actuator.

The pipeline passes through the oil outlet pipeline and flows back to the hydraulic oil tank, so no steering is performed. When the steering wheel turns to the left, the oil inlet pipeline enters the first oil port through the reversing valve, and the oil outlet pipeline enters the second oil port. At this time, the first oil port is the oil inlet and the second oil port is the oil outlet, and the steering cylinder drives the wheel to turn left.

When the high-pressure oil flows out from the first oil outlet, the first steering circuit provides power to the steering actuator to enable the steering actuator to perform steering work. When the high-pressure oil flows out from the second oil outlet, the second steering circuit performs suspension lifting work.

[0054] For a better understanding of the embodiments of the present application, see Figure 2 , provides a specific example as follows:

[0055] A steering system comprises a hydraulic oil tank, a steering pump, a steering circuit and a steering actuator connected in sequence through pipelines, wherein the steering circuit comprises a first steering circuit and a second steering circuit connected in parallel, and further comprises a first three-way reversing valve, wherein the first three-way reversing valve has an oil return port, namely a T port, the steering pump is connected to an oil inlet, namely a P port, the first oil outlet, namely a port A, is connected to the first steering circuit through a pipeline to provide power to the steering actuator through the first steering circuit, and the second oil outlet, namely a port B, is connected to the second steering circuit through a pipeline to pass the oil return port. The suspension lifting work is performed through the second steering circuit, the oil return port, namely the T port, is connected to the hydraulic oil tank through a pipeline, the first steering circuit includes a control valve and a one-way valve, the control valve has an oil return port, namely the T port, the oil inlet, namely the P port, of the control valve and the first oil outlet, namely the A port, of the first three-way reversing valve are connected by a pipeline, the oil outlet, namely the A port, is connected to the one-way valve, the one-way valve is connected to the steering actuator, the allowable flow direction of the one-way valve is from the oil outlet of the first three-way reversing valve to the steering actuator, the oil return port, namely the T port, of the first three-way reversing valve is connected to the hydraulic oil tank The second steering circuit includes a first solenoid valve, a second solenoid valve and a second three-way reversing valve which are sequentially connected through pipelines. The first solenoid valve is connected to a second oil outlet, i.e., port B, of the first three-way reversing valve. The pipeline between the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve is connected to a suspension lifting actuator. The oil inlet of the second three-way reversing valve is connected to the second solenoid valve. The first oil outlet is connected to a hydraulic oil tank, and the second oil outlet is connected to a steering actuator. The suspension lifting actuator includes an oil-gas spring, and the oil-gas spring is connected to the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve. The pipeline between them is connected, a flow valve is provided between the second oil outlet of the second three-way reversing valve and the steering actuator, the steering actuator includes a steering gear and a steering cylinder, one end of the oil inlet pipeline of the steering gear is connected to the steering circuit through a pipeline, that is, a one-way valve and a flow valve are connected in parallel, and the other end is connected to the first oil port of the steering cylinder through a pipeline through the reversing valve, one end of the oil outlet pipeline is connected to the hydraulic oil tank through a pipeline, and the other end is connected to the second oil port of the steering cylinder through a pipeline through the reversing valve, wherein the first three-way reversing valve and the second three-way reversing valve are solenoid valves.

[0056] When the car is running normally, there is hydraulic oil in the oil-gas spring. The transfer pump draws hydraulic oil from the hydraulic oil tank to form high-pressure oil, which enters the oil inlet of the first three-way reversing valve. The oil outlet of the first three-way reversing valve is port A. The high-pressure oil enters port P of the control valve from port A, and then enters the one-way valve from port A of the control valve, and enters the steering gear from the one-way valve to perform steering work. When the steering pump fails, the first solenoid valve disconnects the pipeline, and the second solenoid valve connects the pipeline. The oil outlet of the second three-way reversing valve is the second oil outlet, and the hydraulic oil in the oil-gas spring passes through the second solenoid valve, the second three-way reversing valve and the flow valve and enters the steering gear to enable the steering gear to perform steering work.

[0058] It should be understood that, for the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve, the connection and disconnection of the pipeline can be achieved by energizing and de-energizing. For example, for the first solenoid valve, the pipeline is connected when energized and disconnected when de-energized. It can also be that the pipeline is disconnected when energized and connected when de-energized. For the first three-way reversing valve and the second three-way reversing valve, the switching can be achieved by energizing and de-energizing. For example, for the first three-way reversing valve, it switches to the first oil outlet when energized and switches to the second oil outlet when de-energized.
