ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic power assisted vehicle steering system having an input member connected with a manual steering wheel to be rotated thereby, an output member coaxial with the input member and connected with a vehicle steering mechanism, a torsion bar connecting the input member with the output member, a hydraulic power assist cylinder provided in the vehicle steering mechanism, a control valve for selectively applying a hydraulic pressure to the cylinder to produce a hydraulic assist force. The control valve includes a valve member connected with the output member for limited axial displacements. A locking device is provided to lock the vlave member at a position offset from a neutral position to hydraulically bias the cylinder when the input member is steered beyond a predetermined value so that a centering or restoring force is produced to provide a self centering function.
