AI Technical Summary
In existing steering gear loading mechanisms used in vehicle driving simulation testing systems, the linear loading mechanism leads to easy damage to the guide rails and sliders, resulting in low system reliability and durability. In particular, when the tie rod force is too large or installation is restricted, the torque can cause system damage.
A rotary steering loading mechanism is adopted, which directly bears the torque through a rotary motor. The rotary loading mechanism, composed of a rotary motor and a gear reducer, eliminates the easily damaged guide rails and sliders, and uses a swing arm and coupling to transmit torque, thereby increasing the reliability of the system.
This improved system reliability, reduced component damage and the resulting system downtime probability, and maintained system stability and durability.
