According to the disclosure, the steering control device and method may enhance the driver's steering feeling by correcting the steering torque due to a difference in linear distance despite a difference in the linear distance from the rotation axis according to the position of the pressure applied to the steering wheel shaped so that the linear distance from the rotation axis increases/decreases.

A method includes receiving, before a first time, a plurality of sensor values and identifying, based on the plurality of sensor values, a target vehicle in a blind zone of a host vehicle. The method also includes determining, at the first time, that the host vehicle is initiating a steering maneuver and identifying a plurality of time segments between the first time and a second time. The method also includes updating the plurality of sensor values and determining a heading angle of the target vehicle relative to the host vehicle. The method also includes estimating a position of the target vehicle at each time segment of the plurality of time segments and estimating, using each position of the target vehicle at each corresponding time segment of the plurality of time segments, a position of the target vehicle at the second time.

A floating bearing for a steering gear of a motor vehicle includes a rotary bearing having an inner bearing ring for receiving a screw pinion shaft of the steering gear, and an outer bearing ring built into a bearing sleeve. The bearing sleeve interacts with a guiding element, which interacts with a holding element, such that the bearing sleeve moves relative to the holding element in a first direction oriented radially to the longitudinal axis of the bearing sleeve when the screw pinion shaft is not loaded with torque, and relative movement is prevented when the screw pinion shaft is loaded with torque by moving the bearing sleeve in relation to the holding element in a second direction that is oriented radially to the longitudinal axis and perpendicularly to the first direction, whereby the guiding element is tilted in a guiding opening of the holding element or the bearing sleeve.

A steering device includes a turning shaft, a steering mechanism, a motor, and a control device. The control device includes a steering-range axial force calculating circuit, a limiting axial force calculating circuit, a final axial force calculating circuit, and an axial force adjusting circuit. The steering-range axial force calculating circuit calculates a steering-range axial force when a steering wheel is operated in a predetermined operation range. The limiting axial force calculating circuit calculates a limiting axial force. The final axial force calculating circuit calculates a final axial force. The axial force adjusting circuit adjusts a value of the steering-range axial force, the limiting axial force, or the final axial force based on the axial force that reflects the force acting on the turning shaft.

The present technology describes systems and methods for varying a pump speed of an electric truck. In examples, vehicle efficiency losses may be reduced by varying the speed of a hydraulic pump associated with a power steering gear. An electronic control unit (ECU) may receive a set of steering information from a torque overlay system (TOS). Based on the set of steering information, a power may be provided to a variable pump motor. The power provided to the variable pump motor may correspond with a speed of a hydraulic pump associated with a power steering gear of the vehicle. As new or additional steering information is received from the TOS, the ECU may adjust the power provided to the variable pump motor.
