Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/041155
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A worm compression and support mechanism for an electric power steering system, comprising a housing (1), wherein a worm (5) and a worm wheel (6) are provided inside the housing (1); an upper end of the worm wheel (6) is in fit connection with the worm (5); one end of the worm (5) is sleeved with a big-end bearing (3), and the other end thereof is sleeved with a small-end bearing (7); a compression assembly is provided on an outer edge side of the small-end bearing (7); the compression assembly closely abuts against an outer ring of the small-end bearing (7); a support assembly is provided on an upper side of the small-end bearing (7); the support assembly is located above the compression assembly; and a lower surface of the support assembly closely abuts against the compression assembly. A pre-compression force is supplied by the compression assembly, a support assembly is arranged above the compression assembly, and the lower surface of the support assembly presses against the compression assembly to provide a limiting effect on the compression assembly in a vertical direction, and the compression assembly provides damping and hard limiting at the top and a side of the worm (5) to support and limit the oscillation of the worm (5) and to absorb the impact of the worm (5).
