Ackermann steering is important for the steering performance of heavy multi-axle vehicle. When Ackermann steering condition is not satisfied, it will lead to abnormal tire wear. Traditional trapezoidal mechanism of heavy multi-axle vehicle is a single degree of freedom (DOF) mechanism, which is difficult to completely realize Ackermann steering. In this paper, a new two DOF electro-hydraulic servo steering system (TDEHSSS) by using a variable length tie rod is proposed for solving the issue. First, a complex nonlinear dynamic model of TDEHSSS is established. This model includes the two DOF mechanical model based on a Lagrange equation, the valve-controlled double steering power cylinders model and the valve-controlled tie rod cylinder model. Then, a simulation model is built through MATLAB/Simulink and the simulation results show that TDEHSSS can realize the proposed requirement. At last, a test bench is founded to verify model. It is indicated that the simulation and experimental curves are consistent, showing that mathematical model is in accordance with the experimental system. This research is valuable for analyzing TDEHSSS, designing advanced controllers, and finally realizing Ackermann steering for heavy multi-axle vehicles.
