System Description
Fluid Flow Diagram
The system is a compact rotary-valve-type power steering, connected to the steering gearbox. The fluid pressure is pro-
vided by a vane-type pump which is driven by the engine crank pulley. The amount of fluid and pressure is regulated by
the flow control valve built into the pump. The fluid pressure from the pump is delivered to the valve body unit around the
pinion of the steering gearbox. The valve inside the valve body unit controls the hydraulic pressure and changes the direc-
tion of the tlow. The fluid then flows to the power cylinder, where rack thrust is generated. Fluid returning from the power
cylinder flows back to the reservoir, where the fluid is "filtered" and supplied to the pump again

Steering Pump
Construc'tion
The pump is a vane-type incorporating a flow control valve (with an integrated relief valve) and is driven by a POLY-V-belt
from the crank pulley. The pump features 10 vanes. Each vane performs two intake/discharge operations for every rota-tion of the rotor. This means that the hydraulic fluid pressure pulse becomes extremely small during discharge.
Operation
The belt-driven pulley rotates the rotor through the drive shaft. As the rotor rotates. the hydraulic pressure is applied tothe vane chamber of the rotor and the vanes will rotate while being pushed onto the inner circumference of the cam ring.The inner circumference of the cam ring has an extended portion with respect to the center of the shaft, so the rollersmove downward in the axial direction as the carrier rotates. As a result of this roller movement, the internal volume of thevane chamber will change. resulting in fluid intake and discharge.

DISCHARGE PORT
The vanes are pushed onlothe inner circumference of thecam ring.
The volume of the vane cham-ber increases so that fluid issucked in.
The sucked in fluid movestoward the discharge port.As the vanes return to thetheir original position on theinner side, the volume of thevane chamber decreases sothe fluid is discharged fromthe discharge port-

Flow Control
The flow control valve in the pump performs the follow-
ing steps O through aE ro control the flow of fluid, i.e. to
increase the discharge volume when engine speed is
low and to decrease it when the engine speed increases
The assistance thrust of the steering gearbox changes in
compliance with the change in the discharge volume.
When the engine starts, fluid discharged from the
discharge port starts to run through the metering
ori{ice in the pump. The discharge volume increases
as the engine speed increases.
As the flow has already been regulated by the
metering orifice when the engine speed ls at or near
the idle speed, a constant and regulated amount of
fluid is discharged until the engine speed reaches
the middle speed range. As the engrne speed
increases, the pressure difference between the ends
of the metering orifice increases. A pressure differ-
ence is created between the top and bottom ends of
the flow control valve, too, pushing the flow control
valve to open the by-pass passage. This allows the
excess fluid to return to the inlet port preventing
pressure at the discharge port trom rising exces-
As the engine speed continues to increase, the flow
control valve is pushed back further' When the
engine speed reaches a given speed, the return pas
sage outside the melering orifice is connected to
the inlet port, and the opening to the inlet port
widens in prooortion to the increase in engine
speed. This makes part of the fluid regulated by the
metering orifice return to the inlet port of the pump;
there by discharged Iluid lrom the pump rs
decreased slowlv by this amount
The orifice in the return passage regulates and
maintains the flow of fluid discharged from the
pump at a given level untilthe engine speed reach-
es the high speed range.

Pressure Relief
Pressure outside of the metering orifice is directed tothe bonom of the flow control valve. When the pressure
builds up, the relief valve in the flow control valve opensto relieve the pressure. As the flow control valve ispushed back by the pressure difference this time. theflow of fluid in the bypass passage increases, controllingthe pressure outside the metering orifice. The aboveoperatrons are repeated to provide constant discharaepressure from the pump.
