Vehicle steering apparatus

摘要

A steer-by-wire steering apparatus for a vehicle includes an elastic member (13) which couples a reaction force actuator (14) to a steering wheel (10). With respect to the elastic member (13), a side closer to the steering wheel (10) is referred to as a primary side, and a side closer to the reaction force actuator (14) is referred to as a secondary side. A steering wheel position detector (19) is located at the secondary side. Therefore, the apparatus is capable of giving a feel of a steering reaction force equivalent to an ordinary mechanically connected steering apparatus to an operator and secures stability of a control system. <IMAGE>
