<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for applying steering resistance of a vehicle, capable of providing good steering feeling in a fine steering region at the start of steering and at the start of returning, and improving the sense of safety at high-speed traveling by increasing the sense of rigidity of the steering. <P>SOLUTION: This device for applying steering resistance of the vehicle is provided with a resistance applying means 5 applying resistance force to the rotation of a rotatable steering shaft 2 inserted into a cylindrical steering column 1, wherein the resistance force applied by the resistance applying means 5 is changed in response to a vehicle speed. The resistance applying means 5 is arranged near a steering wheel 4. The steering start is detected by means of a change in steering speed calculated based on a steering angle. The resistance force applied by the resistance applying means 5 in the steering start region is set larger than that in another region. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
