Motor driven power steering tunable by user

摘要

The motor-driven power steering may include a user selection unit, a driving motor unit, and a control unit that includes a basic current map creating driving torque according to a vehicle speed for controlling the driving motor unit by using a vehicle speed and steering torque input through CAN communication and a sub-current map obtained by reducing the basic current map at a predetermined reduction ratio, creates adjustment torque corresponding to an adjustment signal adjusted by the user selection unit by using the sub-current map, and includes a sub-functional logic adjusting driving torque created by the basic current map by the created adjustment torque, a driving torque compensation map compensating adjustment driving torque adjusted by the sub-functional logic in accordance with the traveling state of a vehicle, and a driving logic that controls the driving motor unit by using compensation driving torque compensated by the driving torque compensation map.

主权项

1. A motor-driven power steering apparatus, comprising:
a user selection unit transmitting an adjustment signal for adjusting a steering force of a steering wheel; a driving motor unit for driving a rack in accordance with the operation of the steering wheel; and a control unit receiving the adjustment signal from the user selection unit and actuating the driving motor unit, wherein the control unit includes: a basic current map calculating a driving torque according to a vehicle speed for controlling the driving motor unit by using the vehicle speed and a steering torque input through CAN communication of a vehicle; a sub-current map obtained by reducing the basic current map at a predetermined reduction ratio and calculating an adjustment torque corresponding to the adjustment signal adjusted by the user selection unit by using the sub-current map; sub-functional logic adjusting the driving torque calculated by the basic current map by the adjustment torque calculated by the sub-current map; a driving torque compensation map compensating an adjustment driving torque adjusted by the sub-functional logic in accordance with a traveling state of the vehicle; and a driving logic that controls the driving motor unit by using a compensation driving torque compensated by the driving torque compensation map, wherein in the sub-functional logic, the sub-current map calculates a reduction driving torque reduced as much as the predetermined reduction ratio in comparison to the driving torque calculated by the basic current map in accordance with the input steering torque and the vehicle speed, and the adjustment torque is created by an adjusting unit that adjusts the reduction driving torque in response to the adjustment signal, and wherein the adjusting unit amplifies the reduction driving torque at a predetermined ratio in response to the adjustment signal.
