发明名称 INTUITIVE DRIVE-BY-WIRE STEERING WITH REDUNDANT MECHANICAL CONTROL
摘要 A drive-by-wire steering system on a vehicle requiring counter-steering includes a driver input mechanism, for example, a steering wheel, joystick, voice command receiver, or keyboard, and a control system. A sensor receives driver input and sends that information to the control system. An engagement mechanism, for example, a clutch, separates the driver input mechanism from controlling the vehicle. The control system further includes at least one actuator, a wheel, and a mechanical linkage controllable via the engagement mechanism in order for the control system to articulate a steering mechanism, for example, the front wheel of the vehicle, as appropriate.

主权项 1. A redundant mechanical steering system of a vehicle comprising: a driver input mechanism; at least one road wheel; an engagement mechanism that mechanically engages the driver input mechanism to a steering control and the at least one road wheel of the vehicle; and a mechanical gearbox/planetary mechanism/levers component including gears, planetary mechanism, levers components, or hydraulic pumps and piston; wherein the redundant mechanical steering system is a natural default upon an electric failure of the vehicle.
