SENSOR MOUNTING FOR POWER ASSISTED STEERING SYSTEM

摘要

A power assisted steering system includes a steering assembly and a power assist assembly. The power assist assembly includes a motor having an output shaft that is connected to the steering assembly. A target disc is connected to the output shaft for rotation therewith. A control unit has a printed circuit board including at least one sensor supported thereon. The sensor is responsive to rotation of the target disc for generating a signal. The controller is responsive to the sensor signal for controlling the operation of the motor.
