Abstract | Amid the growing demands for a lighter EPS system, we have developed a pinion type EPS (P-EPS) and a dual pinion type EPS (DP-EPS) plastic sensor housing for Hall IC torque sensors. We have achieved housings that have the capability to endure being installed in engine rooms. Moreover, when compared to the conventional aluminum sensor housing, we have lightened the weight of the housings; 148 g (which is 52% reduction) for P-EPS, and 81 g (which is 31% reduction) for DP-EPS. |
