Abstract: Proposed is an inspection technology for inspecting a focus ring. A device and a method for inspecting the focus ring including a heat transfer member are proposed. The inspection device may include a housing configured to provide inspection space of the focus ring, with a predetermined area of an upper wall of the housing being formed of a transparent material, a hot plate provided in the housing and configured to heat treat the focus ring while the hot plate supports the focus ring, and an inspection unit configured to inspect a connection state between the focus ring and the heat transfer member by obtaining a thermal image of the focus ring after the focus ring is completely heat treated.

Abstract: A motor-driven power steering system includes a steering column connected to a steering wheel, a motor with a rotation shaft connected to the steering column, a decelerator that rotates by interacting with the rotation shaft, fixing parts mounted at each left and right wheel, link members rotatably connected at both ends to the fixing parts and the decelerator, a detecting part that detects the vehicle state, and a motor driving device that generates a steering assist force by supplying the motor with a current determined on the basis of the vehicle state. This configuration transmits the driving force of the motor directly to vehicle wheels, thereby optimizing the motor function and reducing the vehicle weight by eliminating a rack.
