摘要： An apparatus includes a hydraulic power steering motor. A continuously variable transmission has an input shaft rotatable under the influence of force transmitted from the engine and an output shaft operable to drive a pump. The continuously variable transmission is operable to drive the pump at a first speed when one of the input and output shafts of the continuously variable transmission rotates at a first speed. The continuously variable transmission is operable to drive the pump at a second speed when the one of the input and output shafts rotates at a second speed. A centrifugal sensor is connected with the one of the input and output shafts. The centrifugal sensor transfers rotational movement of the one of the input and output shafts to a linearly displaceable input member of the continuously variable transmission to change the speed at which the pump is driven.

摘要： A steering column (10) includes a steering column member (12) connectable with a steering wheel (16) and rotatable to turn steerable vehicle wheels. A mounting bracket (40) connects the steering column (10) to a vehicle frame. A support (30), through which the steering column member (12) extends, is connected with the mounting bracket (40). The support (30) supports the steering column member (12) for rotation about a longitudinal axis (32) of the steering column member and is movable relative to the mounting bracket (40). A locking mechanism (60) applies a force to lock the support (30) in any one of the plurality of positions relative to the mounting bracket (40). A release mechanism (70) reduces the force applied by the locking mechanism (60) in response to a sensed vehicle condition.

摘要： A steering system (10) for a vehicle (16) comprises a housing (20) having first and second end portions (32, 34) and an intermediate portion (50). A steering member (66) is supported for axial movement in the housing (20). A piston (100) fixed for movement with the steering member (66) has opposite end faces (104, 106). First and second springs (130, 132) engage the end faces (104, 106) of the piston (100) and bias the piston and thereby the steering member (66) in first and second axial directions toward a straight ahead position. Steering linkage (124, 126) connected with the piston member (100) transmits movement of the piston member (100) to steerable wheels (12, 14) of the vehicle.

摘要： A steering column (10) has a first steering column member (12) movable axially relative to a second steering column member (14). A support (68, 144) for connecting the steering column to a vehicle frame includes first and second clamping members (68, 144) at least partially circumscribing a member (58) connected to the first steering column member (12) for clamping the member (58) connected to the first steering column member (12) to lock the first steering column member (12) in any one of an infinite number of positions relative to the second steering column member (14). The first clamping member (68) is adapted to be connected to the vehicle frame. The second clamping member (144) has a first end portion (148) connected to the first clamping member (68) and a second end portion (142). A cam (122) engaging the second end portion (142) of the second clamping member (144) applies a clamping force to the second clamping member (144). The cam (122) has a first position in which the first steering column member (12) is prevented from moving relative to the second steering column member (14) and a second position in which the first steering column member (12) is permitted to move axially relative to the second steering column member (14).

摘要： An apparatus for supporting a steering wheel (16) of a vehicle (14) comprises a first steering column part (70) and a second steering column part (80). The first steering column part (70) and the vehicle steering wheel (16) are supported for telescopic movement along an axis (28) between a plurality of different positions relative to the second steering column part (80). A locking mechanism (10) is interposed between the first steering column part (70) and the second steering column part (80) for locking the first steering column part in a selected one of the plurality of positions. The locking mechanism (10) comprises a fluid (100) having a viscosity which varies in response to an energy field acting on the fluid. The locking mechanism (10) also includes means (108) for varying the viscosity of the fluid (100) by varying the energy field to vary the resistance to movement of the first steering column part (70) relative to the second steering column part (80).

摘要： An apparatus includes a pivotable steering column member associated with a vehicle steering wheel. A rod member is pivotally attached to the steering column member. The rod member has a longitudinal axis. The rod member moves longitudinally upon pivotal movement of the steering column member. The rod member has a first plurality of teeth extending transverse to the longitudinal axis. The first plurality of teeth are centered relative to a plane extending through the longitudinal axis. A lever member has a second plurality of teeth for meshing engagement with the first plurality of teeth. The lever member is fixed against movement longitudinally with the rod member. The lever member is mounted for pivotal movement about a pivot axis generally parallel to the longitudinal axis between a release position in which the first and second plurality of teeth are out of meshing engagement permitting longitudinal movement of the rod member and an engaged portion in which the first and second plurality of teeth are in meshing engagement and block longitudinal movement of the rod member. The pivot axis is offset to one side of the plane a distance generally equal to one half the length of teeth of the first plurality of teeth.

摘要： A vehicle steering apparatus (10) for turning steerable wheels (14, 16) of a vehicle includes a member (44) movable linearly in opposite directions to turn the steerable wheels in opposite directions. A housing (40) has a chamber (42) into which the member (44) extends. A piston (46) secured to the member (44) is located in the chamber (42). The piston (46) divides the chamber (42) into first and second chamber portions (48, 50). Fluid pressure in the first chamber portion (48) acts on a first area (116) of the piston (46) to cause Linear movement of the member (44) in one direction. Fluid pressure in the second chamber portion (50) acts on a second area (118) of the piston (46) to cause linear movement of the member (44) in a second direction opposite the one direction. The second area (118) of the piston (46) is less than the first area (116) of the piston. A spring (122) acts to urge the member (44) in the second direction. The spring (122) applies a force to the member (44) to balance the forces acting on the member to move the member when the pressure in the first chamber portion (48) equals the pressure in the second chamber portion (50).
