Equipment steering parts are components that are responsible for controlling the direction and movement of heavy equipment, such as construction machinery, agricultural machinery, and mining equipment. These parts work together to provide precise steering control, allowing operators to maneuver equipment with ease and accuracy.
Some common equipment steering parts include:
Steering Wheel: The steering wheel is the primary component used to control the direction of the equipment. It is typically located on the operator's side of the cab and is used to turn the wheels or tracks of the equipment.
Steering Column: The steering column is the vertical shaft that connects the steering wheel to the steering box or steering pump. It provides a stable mounting point for the steering wheel and allows the operator to adjust the steering wheel's position.
Steering Box: The steering box is a gear-driven device that converts the rotational motion of the steering wheel into the linear motion needed to steer the equipment's wheels or tracks. It is typically located on the equipment's frame and is connected to the steering column and the tie rods.
Tie Rods: The tie rods are the components that connect the steering box to the wheels or tracks. They are typically made of steel or aluminum and provide a rigid connection between the steering box and the wheels or tracks.
Steering Pump: The steering pump is a hydraulic pump that provides the hydraulic pressure needed to assist with steering. It is typically driven by the equipment's engine and is connected to the steering box or steering column.
Hydraulic Lines: The hydraulic lines are the hoses and fittings that connect the steering pump to the steering box or steering column. They carry the hydraulic fluid that provides the steering assist.
Together, these equipment steering parts provide precise and reliable steering control, allowing operators to maneuver heavy equipment with ease and efficiency.
