  • Patent number: 12012926
    Abstract: A planetary carrier arrangement Includes a planetary carrier, and a lubricant dispensing unit designed to dispense lubricant into the planetary carrier. The lubricant dispensing unit includes an axially elastically movable thrust ring designed to compensate an axial offset of the planetary carrier. The thrust ring has a side in facing relationship to the planetary carrier, with the side designed to include a lubricant pocket thereon.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20090171534
    Abstract: A method for active actuation of a servo valve assembly in an electrohydraulic vehicle steering system includes the following method steps: a) a steering-wheel angle and a steering wheel angular velocity are determined as input variables; b) a pinion angle and a pinion angular velocity are determined as further input variables; c) a setpoint is specified for the steering-wheel angle; d) the input variables and the steering-wheel angle setpoint each are multiplied by an amplification parameter; e) by summing the amplified input variables and the amplified steering-wheel angle setpoint, a control variable is determined for a servo valve actuator which actuates a valve component of the servo valve assembly; f) the servo valve actuator is actuated corresponding to the control variable.

  • Publication number: 20080208411
    Abstract: In a method for controlling an electric steering assistance system having an electric motor to provide an auxiliary torque for a steering arrangement, a steering wheel torque, which is applied by the driver, is measured. The measured steering wheel torque signal undergoes high-pass filtering to determine an inertia compensation torque requirement, such that a signal is obtained which is representative of the dynamics of the steering wheel torque signal. The method according to the invention makes possible a modification of the steering wheel torque dynamics which is dependent on the steering angle velocity. An electric steering assistance system having a control arrangement to carry out the method comprises an electric motor to provide an auxiliary torque for a steering arrangement. The control arrangement has a high-pass filter in which the steering wheel torque signal undergoes high-pass filtering.
