A modular approach to the design of the steering drive of a multi-axle vehicle with a particularly high load capacity

The presented article discusses a modular approach to the design of heavy-duty vehicles using the example of an autonomous steering drive. A comparison of electrohydraulic steering drives with a centralized hydraulic power supply and an autonomous hydraulic power supply is presented. The analysis of the main types of autonomous drives is carried out. It was concluded that it is necessary to establish the patterns of functioning and create scientifically sound principles for designing an autonomous drive in the steering system of a multi-axle vehicle with a particularly heavy load capacity.
