Problems solved by technology

For example, if Figure 10B As shown, when the rotation angle of the steering wheel 200 is such that the knob 201 is located on the lateral right side of the center of the steering wheel 200 when viewed from the driver, it is difficult to turn the steering wheel 200 as expected by the knob 201. operate like
Therefore, in such a case, it is difficult to finely adjust the orientation of the fork portion, in other words, the orientation of the vehicle body.

Abstract

There is provided a vehicle steering system that facilitates fine steering of a vehicle body regardless of the operated state of a steering wheel (11). The steering wheel (11) is provided with a lever (12) used to operate the steering wheel (11). A support mechanism (80) supports and rotates the lever (12) relative to the steering wheel (11) such that the lever (12) is tiltable in the rightward direction and the leftward direction relative to the vehicle body regardless of a turning angle of the steering wheel (11). The support mechanism (80) includes a support member (81) fixed to the steering wheel (11), a base (82) disposed on the support member (81) and rotatably supported by the support member (81), and a gear mechanism (83) used to rotate the base (82) as the steering wheel (11) is turned.

Description

technical field [0001] This application claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-076380 filed on April 1, 2013, and uses the entire content including the specification, drawings, and abstract of the specification here. [0002] The present invention relates to a steering device used for loading and unloading vehicles and the like. Background technique [0003] In a loading and unloading vehicle such as a forklift, there is a lift control lever for the loading and unloading device on the right side of the driver seated in the driver's seat, and a steering wheel (steering member) on the left side. Therefore, the driver operates the steering wheel with his left hand and the lift operating lever with his right hand. A knob (operation unit) for operating the steering wheel is rotatably attached to the steering wheel, and the driver turns the steering wheel by holding the knob with his left hand. When loading a load on the fork, fine adjustment of the fork in ...
