Embodiment Construction
[0031]A typical electric power assisted steering system is illustrated in FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings. The system comprises an electric motor 1 which acts upon a portion of a steering column 2 through an (optional) gearbox 4. The electric motor 1 may act upon a different part of a steering gear such as a rack and pinion that connects the steering column to the road wheels. The steering column is connected at one end to a steering wheel 3 which can be turned by a driver to turn the road wheels and hence steer the vehicle. Of course, this is not to be taken as limiting to the scope of protection we are seeking, and other power assisted steering systems are envisaged to which the invention has application.
[0032]The steering column 2 carries a multiple output sensor 5 that is adapted to measure the torque carried by the steering column 2 that is produced by the driver of the vehicle as the steering wheel (not shown) and hence steering column is turned against the resisting force...
