Title:
MOTOR FOR ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/029562
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To provide a motor for EPS which can exhibit a desired performance while
satisfying severe limitation on physical constitution. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS]
In a motor for a rack assist type electric power steering system arranged coaxially
around a rack shaft coupled with a steering wheel and supplying a steering assist
force to the rack shaft, the motor has a six-pole/nine-slot structure and the
ratio between the number of turns and the wire diameter of a winding (number of
turns/wire diameter of winding) is set in the range of 15-25. Consequently, a
motor for EPS in which physical constitution, output, heat generation, steering feeling,
cost, and the like, are satisfied in good balance can be obtained. Since numeric
values conforming to EPS specification are set for the ratio of number of turns/wire
diameter of winding, specification at each part of the motor can be determined
in accordance with these values resulting in optimization of design or reduction
in manhour of design.
