Abstract

The paper presents an original solution to the problem of correct steering. It is obtained by modifying the well-known six-bar linkage with the addition of a differential mechanism between the steering wheel and the original linkage. The differential mechanism, coupled to a higher pair, resolves the single input coming from the steering wheel into two outputs satisfying the condition of correct steering. Forces transmitted by the higher pair are evaluated through a static analysis. A numerical simulation, with practical criteria for the selection of relevant design variables, concludes the paper.
