Car steering system's function is to allow the driver to control the vehicle's direction and maintain stable straight-line driving. The vehicle's steering system generally consists of a steering gear and a steering linkage mechanism. Here is more information about the steering system: 1. The steering gear is composed of main components such as the steering wheel, steering shaft, steering worm, and sector gear; the steering linkage mechanism includes components like the steering pitman arm, steering drag link, steering knuckle arm, left and right steering tie rod arms, and steering tie rod. 2. The steering gear is divided into two parts: the steering column and the steering meshing mechanism. The main function of the steering column is force transmission and safety protection; the steering meshing mechanism's role is to increase torque and transmit steering force to the steering linkage mechanism. 3. The function of the steering linkage mechanism is to transmit the force from the steering meshing mechanism to the front wheels to achieve steering.
