Cut Section Model of Steering Gear Box Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : EL-AELE-9411
Jlab Export is a leading Cut Section Model of Steering Gear Box Manufacturer,and suppliers in India

Built from full-size original parts, this cut section model opens up a worm-type steering gear box and links it to wheels and an axle. Turning the steering wheel shows the worm working inside the sectioned box, the steering arm moving and the wheels turning. Components and cut areas are painted in different colours, and the model stands on a tubular frame.

Workshop Practice on Steering Gear Boxes

Students turn the steering wheel from lock to lock and count the turns. Watching the worm, the steering arm and the wheels, they see a large movement at the rim become a small, strong movement at the road wheels. Using the colour coding, they name each sectioned part and explain how the worm drives the steering arm.

Next, they compare how far each wheel turns at full lock. In an Ackermann layout the inner wheel turns through a larger angle than the outer, so both roll around one centre on a turn. The Model Steering Jeep With Stub Axle shows the stub axles and tie rod behind this. The turntables of the Steering Geometry and Wheel Alignment Trainer are then used to measure the angles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes too much free play at the steering wheel?
Free play is the movement at the rim before the road wheels start to turn. It builds up from worn tie rod ends and linkage joints, worn kingpins or wear in the gear box mesh. Students check it by rocking the wheel gently and watching where the movement first reaches the road wheels.

Why does a steering box reduce the movement?
The gear reduction lets a driver turn heavy road wheels with modest effort. Several turns of the steering wheel give a small swing of the steering arm, and that relation is the steering ratio.

Is the model made from real vehicle parts?
Yes. It is made from full-size original parts, sectioned to show the inside. The hardware and gears are electroplated and the paint has a gloss coat.

Why should the inner wheel turn further on a bend?
On a turn, the inner wheel follows a tighter circle than the outer one. The steering arms are angled so the inner wheel turns further, letting both wheels roll without scrubbing the tyres.

How does it differ from the single gear type models?
The Worm and Roller Type and Recirculating Ball Type models each teach one gear type. This model connects a sectioned gear box to wheels and an axle, so the path from steering wheel to road wheels is shown on one frame.
