Steering Pump
Construction
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.
/
ROTORVANE CAM RING
Operation
The belt-driven pulley rotates the rotor through the drive shaft. As the rotor rotates, the hydraulic pressure is applied to
the vane chamber of rhe 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 vanes
move downward in the axial direction as the rotor rotates. As a result of this roller movement. the internal volume of the
vane chamber will change, resulting in fluid intake and discharge

sucked in.
As the vanes return to the

vane chamber decreases so
the fluid is discharged from

System Description
Steering Gearbox
The rack-and-pinion type steering gearbox has a valve body unit incorporated with the pinion to control the steering fluidpressure. Steering fluid from the pump is regulated by a rotary valve in the valve body unit and is sent through the cylin,der line to the power cylinder, where hydraulic pressure is applied. The steering fluid in the other side of the power cylin,der returns through the cylinder line and valve body unit to the reservoii.

POWER CYLINDER
Valve Body Unit
Inside the valve body unit is the valve, which is coaxial with the pinion shaft, and controls the steering fluid pressure. Thevalve housing is connected with the fluid line from the pump, the return line to the reservoir, and the two cylinder linesfrom the respective power cylinder. The pinion shaft is double - structured with the input shaft connected to the piniongear, both of which are interconnected with the torsion bar.
The pin inserted in the valve and the pinion shaft groove engage; this allows the pinion shaft to rotate together with thevalve. Because of this construction, the difference in angle in the circumferential direction between the input shaft and thevalve becomes larger according to the torsional strength of the pinion or steering resistance. However, maximum torsionbetween the shafts is regulated by the engaged splines of the shafts at the pin engagement section to hold the torsion barwithin the set value,
This allows the steering system to function as an ordinary rack-and-pinion type steering if the steering fluid is not pressur-
ized because of a faulty pump,
