Abstract: In the steering system, the vibration generated by the steering gear can seriously affect human driving comfort, and effective vibration reduction is crucial. Acoustic black hole (ABH) is a vibration reduction and noise reduction technology that controls the consumption and aggregation of bending waves through thin-walled power function structure changes. A design scheme of embedding a 2D ABH plate in the steering column is proposed to address the vibration reduction issue of the steering gear. Using the finite element method, the natural frequency and velocity response curve of the steering gear is obtained. Then we embed a 2D ABH into the steering gear model. The steering gear model embedded with 2D ABH was subjected to finite element analysis to obtain the vibration characteristics and velocity response and acceleration curve of the steering gear after adding 2D ABH. The results indicate that the vibration velocity and acceleration of the steering gear embedded with ABH is lower throughout the entire frequency range. The maximum damping is around 510 Hz, and the minimum damping is around 294 Hz.
