Steering with the hydraulic booster

Steering with the hydraulic booster

1 - the power steering pump;
2 - a tank with a liquid for hydraulic power-assisted steering;
3 - oil pipes and hoses;

4 - the steering gear;
5 - a steering column;
6 - the steering wheel.

Steering with the hydraulic booster consists of the following elements:

- The steering gear;
- The power steering pump;
- Popolnitelny tank;
- Hydraulic line.

Power steering uses a hydraulic pressure generated by the power steering pump to reduce the effort required to turn the steering wheel.

Power steering pump is mounted on the front of the engine.

Vane-type pump is driven by a belt from the crankshaft pulley. When the motor pump fluid is drawn from the tank popolnitelnogo is compressed and fed to the steering gear. The fluid pressure is regulated by a control valve located in the power steering pump.
