If the engine cannot operate normally, the hydraulic pump cannot continue to work. When the hydraulic pump cannot provide sufficient hydraulic power, the performance of the hydraulic power steering system will be greatly reduced, resulting in insufficient steering power.

Carbon steel is one of the most common materials for manufacturing power steering racks. Its advantage is that the cost is relatively low and it has good processing performance. Carbon steel has high hardness and wear resistance, which can meet the requirements of steering racks for load capacity and durability.

When replacing the steering pump and steering rack, if the power steering fluid is not checked and replenished in time, the fluid level is too low or the fluid quality is unqualified, it will affect the normal operation of the hydraulic system. A low fluid level in the hydraulic system will cause the steering pump to not get enough fluid to generate enough power assistance, which will cause the steering wheel to be heavy.

The design of the rack and pinion steering system is relatively simple, uses fewer components, and is small in size. For small vehicles such as karts, the compact design of the rack and pinion steering system can save space and avoid overly complex mechanical devices.

Although rack-and-pinion steering systems can be used together with tilt mechanisms in theory, in practice, there are still certain design challenges. The most important point is how to ensure that the steering system's accuracy and response speed are not affected when the steering wheel angle is adjusted.

1. Pinion radius (r): in meters. 2. Force applied by the driver (F): in Newtons. 3. Torque (T) = F × r: that is, force multiplied by the radius of action of the pinion. For example, if the driver applies a force of 20 Newtons to the steering wheel and the effective radius of the pinion is 0.02 meters, the torque generated is: T = 20 × 0.02 = 0.4 Newton meters.

Small cars and compact cars are the most common types of vehicles that use rack and pinion steering systems. These vehicles are usually used for urban commuting and are designed to provide smooth handling and low manufacturing costs. ·Representative models: Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Volkswagen Golf, etc.

If the driver is used to more intense driving, he may tend to choose a design with more sensitive steering. At this time, it is more appropriate to choose a gear with more teeth. For vehicles driven in daily cities, drivers may prefer easier and more comfortable steering. Appropriately reducing the number of teeth may bring a better driving experience.

The design of the electric steering rack is based on a certain intensity of use and load conditions. If the vehicle is overloaded for a long time, or during long-term high-speed driving, frequent parking and steering, the electric steering system may encounter excessive load.

The hydraulic oil should be kept in the pipes and steering rack inside the system, and should not flow out through the dust cover. If there is liquid outflow or accumulation in the dust cover, it usually means that there is a problem with the steering system, which may involve aging, damage or oil seal failure of the seal.
