Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve durability and reliability, etc., by joining an internal gear and an external gear to an input shaft which is rotated by the reciprocating movement of a front-wheel steering tie rod and reciprocating a rear-wheel steering tie rod by means of a small gear which is selectively engaged with the internal gear and external gear. CONSTITUTION:An actuator 47 is controlled by an electronic control device 64 to selectively engage a small gear 34 with an external gear 31 and an internal gear 32 which are integrally formed with an input shaft 10. That is, based on the output signals of a mode switch 61, a vehicle speed sensor 62 and a steering angle sensor 63, when it is detected that the steering angle of front wheels or rear wheels, e.g., exceeded the phase changeover angle corresponding to a vehicle speed, a selector valve 65 is switched over. The oil pressure from a hydraulic pump 66 is fed into the upper chamber of the actuator 47 to pull down a rod 44 against a spring 42. Thereby, the small gear 34 is engaged with the internal gear 32 via an arm 48 moving a tie rod 23 to switch over the steering of rear wheels to the opposite phase side to the front wheels.

[Prior Art] In the four-wheel steering system for a vehicle disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-91458, when the front wheel steering angle is small, the rear wheels are steered (steering) in the same phase, and when the front wheel steering angle is large, the rear wheels are steered in the same phase. In order to steer the rear wheels in the opposite phase, the steering wheel has a planar S that engages with the bin when the bin of the input lot reciprocates in the front and back direction in relation to front wheel steering.
The INI body having a letter-shaped cam groove moves left and right, and the sliding body steers the rear wheels via the tie rod. Also,
In the system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 58-97565, the rear wheels are steered via a tie rod by a crank connected to a freewheel tooth skewer and operated in a trochoidal curve.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the former four-wheel steering SIM, although the sideways are simple, the cam groove of the sliding body and the bottle of the input lot are in line contact, so
There is a problem with the wear resistance of the line contact area between the two, and play in the line contact area affects the steering stability of the vehicle. In the four-wheel steering system described later, in order to obtain a large rear wheel steering angle, the gears need to be large, which not only increases costs! This is disadvantageous in terms of the additional number of bundles and the installation space on the vehicle.
