Power steering systems are designed to make the work of steering a vehicle easier and to help the driver be more relaxed and comfortable. For this reason, the percentage of vehicles equipped with power steering is steadily increasing. Vehicle models in which power steering is installed include FF vehicles and FR vehicles, in which the engine is mounted in the front of the vehicle and there is consequently a heavy load on the front tires. The use of power steering for mid-shipped engine models has also been studied in order to reduce the steering effort in these vehicles even further. However, in the vehicles with the engine mounted toward the rear, the routing of the hydraulic tubing required for existing power steering systems is difficult and there are losses in hydraulic pressure due to the length of the tubes. The installations of power steering in this type of vehicle was therefore difficult. This made it obvious that development of a new power steering system was necessary.
