Abstract

The present invention relates to a steering system. A ratio of the distance by which a rack shaft moves in a first direction relative to the angle by which a pinion shaft rotates in a circumferentialdirection is defined as a stroke ratio. The stroke ratio is larger when the pinion meshes with one of a third rack and a fifth rack than when the pinion meshes with a first rack. The stroke ratio changes while the pinion moves on one of a second rack and a fourth rack. A clearance defined between a rack guide and a guide plug is smaller when the pinion meshes with one of the third rack and the fifth rack than when the pinion meshes with the first rack. The clearance defined between the rack guide and the guide plug changes while the pinion moves on one of the second rack and the fourth rack.

Description

[0001] This application claims the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-158064 filed on August 10, 2016 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-001003 filed on January 6, 2017, and cites the specification and drawings here and the entire contents of the abstract. technical field [0002] This invention relates to steering devices, and more particularly to rack and pinion steering devices. Background technique [0003] In order to change the direction of travel of the vehicle, a steering device is installed on the car. The steering device is, for example, a rack and pinion type steering device. [0004] Rack and pinion steering has a pinion shaft and a rack shaft. The pinion shaft has a pinion. The pinion meshes with a rack provided on the rack shaft. The rack has a plurality of rack teeth arranged in the axial direction of the rack shaft. The pinion shaft is connected to the steering shaft. The steering shaft is connected with a steering wheel. Steering w...
