Abstract

The automotive hydraulic steering system has been a major concern to reduce efforts to steer the steering wheel and give comfort to the car driver.This research aims to design a new concept of the hydraulic power steering system, which carries a similar goal as the system in the conventional car which will be simulated on the steering test rig. The newly developed design simply targeted to improve the previous concepts to simulate the steering test and analyse its durability as well as cost-effectiveness. The criteria of the new innovation are low maintenance, reliable and safe so that the system affordable for the steering test rig. The study of criteria of the hydraulic power steering system is investigated in to predict the best choices for different component parts that will affect the performance of the hydraulic power steering in the test rig. For this project, the electric motor driving the pump will be the main core. The motor bracket has been selected to evaluate its strength under load stress. Next, design criteria and material selection are chosen by analysis. After that, CAD for structure is make in CATIA V5. For this stage the structure must tally with real motor part. Addition, for the analysis structure of motor bracket is test in Solid Thinking Aspire software. In there, stress, displacement magnitude, shear stress, von mises and safety factor being analyse. Result show the maximum and minimum value for all analysis test. In conclusion the material and structure can be evaluated in terms of the component to the fracture in the course of the test rig's life cycle.
