Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The invention provides an electro-hydraulic power-assisted steering system, which comprises a steering motor 1, a motor controller and a steering oil pump 3 for providing hydraulic energy for a steering gear 5, wherein the motor controller is connected with a current information acquisition module arranged in the steering motor 1 in a sampling manner so as to acquire current information of the steering motor; the motor controller controls the clutch 2 to be separated or combined according to the comparison result of the current information and the current set value.

The steering motor 1 drives a steering oil pump 3 through a clutch 2 so that hydraulic oil in an oil storage tank 4 is sent to a steering gear 5 through a circulating pipeline, and steering power assistance is provided for the steering gear 5. The clutch is an electric control clutch, the clutch has a fault diagnosis function, if the electric control clutch is detected to be in a combined state, the steering motor and the steering oil pump always carry out power transmission, and the situation that the steering oil pump does not work due to electrical faults, a steering system does not have power assistance, and driving safety is influenced is avoided.

The motor controller is used for carrying out CAN communication on the whole vehicle through a corresponding CAN interface, and the motor controller is used for controlling the current of a steering motor by connecting the high-voltage power distribution of the whole vehicle according to the steering information of the vehicle so as to realize the control of the rotating speed and the frequency of the motor.

When the steering gear is set to have no steering action or within a set steering angle, the motor is in a static state, the static current is a current set value I1, the corresponding static frequency is f1, and the corresponding rotating speed is n 1. The control has a current feedback mechanism, implements the monitoring current magnitude, and realizes the current closed-loop control.
