Analysis on A Case of Marine Hydraulic Steering Gear Failure

摘要

The hydraulic steering gear is an important equipment of the ship and its failure could contribute to navigation unsafely. With regard to the failure of a certain hydraulic steering gear and inspection of the steering mechanism, this article specifies reasons for the failure of the steering gear and puts forward methods including control to the design, selection and manufacture and enhancement to the watch-keeping and ship-repairing so that the similar accidents could be avoided. In this case, the analysis and treatment to the failure of the marine hydraulic steering gear could result in the prevention and elimination to the failure.
