CONNECTION STRUCTURE BETWEEN IN-WHEEL MOTOR DRIVE DEVICE AND STEERING MECHANISM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connection structure between an in-wheel motor drive device and a steering mechanism which prevents the in-wheel motor drive device from interfering with a tie rod.SOLUTION: A connection structure of the invention includes: an in-wheel motor drive device (11) which is disposed in an inner space area of a road wheel (W) of a steering wheel and drives the steering wheel; a vertical arm (13) which extends upward from the in-wheel motor drive device (11) beyond a periphery of the road wheel (W); and a steering mechanism (41) which is connected with the vertical arm (13) above the periphery of the road wheel (W).
