This document describes the design of a steering system for an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). It discusses selecting an Ackermann steering geometry to provide stability at low speeds suitable for off-road conditions. Key design parameters like track width, wheelbase, and lock-to-lock angle are calculated. An Ackermann angle of 23 degrees is determined. Additional calculations provide the turning radii, steering ratio, rack travel, pinion and rack tooth counts, and steering wheel diameter. The calculated values are validated using simulation software before finalizing the component designs.

Abstract - The Steering system is one of the vital subsystems of a vehicle which provides directional control and stability. In this
project we are designing a steering system for an All-Terrain Vehicle. An All-TerrainVehicle(ATV)isavehiclethatcantravelonall
different terrains. As a result, the steering system is designed for the worst-case scenario, providing maximum directionalcontrol,
pure rolling motion to the wheel, and the minimum possible turning radius. The main aim of this paper is to design a efficient
steering system for an ATV.
Key Words: ATV, Steering System, Ackermann geometry, Rack and Pinion, Design
1.INTRODUCTION
The steering system is a set of assembled components that guides the vehicle to follow a desired course based on the driver's
input. The goal of the steering system is to provide directional control for the vehicle, toreducesteering effortand offerproper
road response to the driver.
The Ackerman steering system is designed using a four-bar linkage mechanism in whichseveral linkagesmove relativeto
one another and direct the vehicle in a specific direction. This system is useful in sharp corners since it reduces steering effort
and facilitates maneuverability.
In comparison to other steering mechanisms, the rack and pinion mechanism isideal duetotheobvious benefitsofsimple
design, ease of manufacturing, significantly reduced space requirements, and cost-effectiveness.
The pinion of a rack and pinion system meshes with the pinion, which is fastened to the end of the steering shaft. The
pinion is rotated by rotating the steering wheel. The movement of rack is responsible for turning of wheels through steering
linkages.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
The following literaturesurvey gives a previewglimpseofourworkinthisresearchrelatedtodesignofsteeringsystemin
an ATV.
Mohan poojari et al. [1]: Designed a 2-D Turning radius mechanism by using Catia V5R21 considering the acquired basic
parameter rack length steering arm lengthand other parameters are changed to obtaindifferentturningradiusandAckermann
percentage values.
William F. Milliken and Douglas L. Milliken [2]: In the book of Race Car Vehicle dynamics It is shown that if the wheel
steers automatically when it turns over a bump or droop or when the vehicle rolls in a turn the vehicle will travel in a path that
driver did not select. So it is good to keep zero bump steer.
Akshay Pawar and Suraj Zambare [3]: Wheelbase and Track Width are decided considering the suspension geometry,
handlingand stability of the vehicle. Kingpin offset was decided by considering the wheel assembly andcastorangleselectedso
that it givesstraight line stability andoptimumself-returningactionforbetterhandling.Positionofrackischosenbyconsidering
pedal position and to avoid significant amounts of bump steer.
ShylaenS Keshwani and A. M. Surendra Kumar [4]: To makecalculationsimpleraC-Programwascodedwhichcalculates
various steering values needed such asAckermannangle, Tie Rod Length, SteeringRatioetc. Thisprogramwassimulatedunder
different Ackermann angle, and it was inferred that when the Ackermann angle increases the outer wheel turns lesser, which
gives the better steering response, and input variability increases hence it gives smooth driving.
Nitish Malik et al [5]: Increased the diameter of steering wheel to reduce the steering effort because the driver effort to
rotate the steer has been increased upon reducing the steering gear ratio.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v9i7533-221027070345-f3d125c4/85/DESIGN-OF-STEERING-SYSTEM-FOR-AN-ALL-TERRAIN-VEHICLE-1-320.jpg)

Amit Kumar Shakya et al. [6]: To minimize the bump steer tie rod must be parallel to Suspension A-Arms so that during
bump the Instantaneous center of the tie rod meets the instantaneous center of the A-Arms at infinity. In this manner, the arc
travelled by the tierods and the arms were equidistant to eachotherduringsuspensiontravel,andnoforcewasgeneratedalong
the rack to produce bump steer.
Kshitij N Sable et al. [7]: The calculated values were validated using lotus shark softwaretochecktheproperfunctioningof
suspension systems and then the designing of components were done in CAD Software CATIA V5 R21. All the components are
analysed to the real world using Finite Element Analysis
Prashant L Agrawal et al. [8]: It was mentioned that the length of the steering rack is directly proportional to the angle of
the steering wheel and inversely proportional to the average turning radius of the vehicle.
Sandeep Chaudhary et al. [9]: While a vehicle taking a turn the outer wheel travels more distance than the innerwheeli.e.,
inner wheel makes higher angle than the outer wheel. So Higher the steering angle smaller will be the turning radius.

4.3 Selection of Steering Geometry
Traction isan important factor in off-road racing as compared to speed. We choose Ackermann steering geometry sinceitgives
high stability at lower speed. Because of the terrain, this geometry is suitable for BAJA vehicles with a speed limit of 60 kmph.

When a vehicle is turning, the condition of perfect rolling is reached when the extended axis of the front wheels and the rear axis meet at a point. This point is called instantaneous centre of the vehicle. The inner wheel deflects more than the outer wheel while a vehicle travels along a curved path to prevent skidding while cornering. 4.4 Steering Design Parameters PARAMETERS DIMENSIONS Track Width (mm) 1219.2 Wheelbase (mm) 1320.8 Lock to Lock 1.25 Inner Wheel Angle (Deg.) 48 Distance between Kingpin Center – Center (mm) 1122.68 Ground Clearance (in) 12 Table -3: Initial Parameters for steering design calculations 4.4 Steering Design Calculations Ackermann angle tan α = king pin – king pin centre distance /2 x(Wheelbase) α = tan-1 (1122.68/2x52x25.4) α = 23.03°θ Max inner wheel angle, Assume, θ = 48° By Ackermann condition Cot (Φ)- cot (θ) = Track width/wheelbase (Φ) = 28.74° So = 29° (Max outer wheel angle) Turning radius of the wheel Turning Radius of front inner wheel, Ri = wheelbase /Sin (θ) - (Track width -K. k)/2 Turning Radius of front outer wheel, Ro = Wheelbase/ Sin (θ) - (Track width -k.
