POWER STEERING – ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEMPS–5

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. DESCRIPTION
The EPS (Electronic Power Steering) system generates
torque through the operation of the motor and the
reduction gear installed on the column shaft in order to
assist steering effort.
The power steering ECU determines directions and the
amount of assisting power in accordance with vehicle
speed signals and signals from the torque sensor built
into the steering column assembly. As a result, the power
steering adjusts the steering effort so that it is lighter
during low speed driving and heavier during high speed
driving.
(a) Power steering ECU:
The power steering ECU calculates assisting power
based on steering torque signals from the torque
sensor and vehicle speed signals from the skid
control ECU.
(b) Torque sensor:
The torque sensor detects the steering effort
generated when the steering wheel is turned and
converts it to an electrical signal.
(c) EPS motor:
The EPS motor is activated by the current from the
power steering ECU and generates torque to assist
the steering effort.
(d) Motor rotation angle sensor:
The motor rotation angle sensor consists of the
resolver sensor, which excels in reliability and
durability. The rotation angle sensor detects the
rotation angle of the motor and outputs it to the
power steering ECU. As a result, it ensures efficient
EPS control.
