PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric steering device which can smoothly perform the circulation of air between the internal space of a boot and the internal space of a housing while maintaining a high roundness of a bushing which is press-fitted in the inner periphery of a supporting section. SOLUTION: A bar-like steering member 6 which reciprocates in the longitudinal direction in response to the turning of a steering wheel is housed in the housing 5, and the bushing 24 is provided by being press-fitted in the inner periphery of the supporting section 23 which penetrates and supports the steering member 6 at the end section of the housing 5. The end section of the housing 5 is provided with the boot 25 which covers the connected section between the steering member 6 and a tie-rod. A through hole 28 which makes air circulate between the internal space of the boot 25 and the internal space of the housing 5 when the boot 25 shrinks accompanying the reciprocating motion of the steering member 6 is provided on the supporting section 23. The through hole 28 is located on the outer side in the radial direction of the inner peripheral surface of the supporting section 23. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
