Why does the steering wheel feel loose when driving on bumpy roads?
1 Answers
Feeling the steering wheel loose when driving on bumpy roads is due to loose components under the chassis, which requires a chassis inspection. Below is relevant information about the steering wheel: 1. Introduction: The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. This new design of the steering wheel emerged as needed, introducing a gear system between the driver and the wheels that operates flexibly and effectively isolates intense vibrations from the road. 2. Function: The steering wheel is generally connected to the steering shaft via splines, and its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. Using a larger diameter steering wheel reduces the hand force required from the driver when turning. The steering intermediate shaft, serving as a connecting component between the steering gear and the steering shaft, facilitates the standardization of steering gears, compensates for errors during manufacturing and installation, and ensures a more rational installation of the steering gear and steering wheel in the vehicle.
