    摘要: A vehicle steering system includes a clutch provided on a power transmission path extending from a steering wheel to steered wheels, a reactive-torque motor configured to apply a steering reactive torque to the steering wheel, a steering operation motor configured to steer the steered wheels, and a clutch engagement controller configured to engage the clutch when a steered angle of the steered wheels has reached a steered angle limit value and the steering wheel is rotated by an amount equal to or greater than a first prescribed value in a direction opposite to a direction toward a steering neutral position, with respect to a first steering angle that is a steering angle of the steering wheel at a time when the steered angle reaches the steered angle limit value, in a case where the clutch is in a disengaged state.

    摘要: A vehicle steering device, in which a steering member and a steering operation mechanism are not mechanically coupled, includes a reaction force motor that applies a reaction force to the steering member, and a reaction force motor control unit that controls the reaction force motor. The reaction force motor control unit includes a target rotational angle setter that sets a target rotational angle for an output shaft at a position close to the side of the neutral position of the output shaft with respect to the rotational angle of the output shaft corresponding to a steered angle limit value by a rotational angle matching steering torque detected by a torque sensor when a steered angle has reached the steered angle limit value and the steering torque that is larger than the steering torque at the time when the steered angle limit value was reached is applied to a steering wheel.

    摘要: A steering system (10) includes a steering wheel (310), a steering column (30), provided with a first portion (31) associated to the steering wheel (310) and on which a first angular position sensor (316) is positioned, and a second portion (32), on which a second electric motor (325) and a second angular position sensor (326) are positioned, and a clutch (33) interposed between the first portion (31) and the second portion (32). The second portion (32) is associated to a hydrostatic steering unit (40) able to command a steering of a vehicle following a rotation imparted on the steering wheel (310) selectively by means of activating the second electric motor (325) when the clutch (33) is open or directly by means of the clutch (33) when the clutch is closed.

    摘要: A joystick for controlling the functions of machines and/or vehicles comprises an actuator which can be moved in different directions by means of a joint having preferably two degrees of freedom, wherein the back-and-forth motions of the actuator occurring in a first plane are subjected to an active force feedback in the form of an electromotor and a reduction gear, and the back-and-forth movement of the actuator which occurs in a second plane perpendicular to the first plane is subjected to a passive force feedback in the form of a sprung reset device. In order to make such a joystick which allows for a low-cost serial production, the invention proposes that the reduction gear is designed with low backlash and is connected on the output side to the actuator via a preferably leaf-spring assembly which connects a swing arm to a joint part.
