<p>The invention describes a simulated steering apparatus provided with a base (2), a driving shaft (11) with a first and second ends. A first plate (21) is rigidly mounted to the driving shaft (11) and a second plate (18) is freely mounted to the driving shaft (11). The first plate (21) is disposed at a close proximity to the second plate (18). A friction means (19) is disposed between the first plate (21) and the second plate (18). A motor (34) is operably connected to the second plate (18). A force exerting means (20), which is disposed in the vicinity of the first (21) and the second plate (18), holds them together. A position sensing means (40) operably connected to the driving shaft (11), actuates the motor (34) when the driving shaft (11) is not in a neutral position. The motor (34) is actuated, such that, the second plate (18) in a direction opposite to the first plate (21).</p> |
