Steered wheel position compensating apparatus for a forklift

摘要

A steering apparatus of a vehicle having a steered tire wheel steered in correspondence to an operation of a steering wheel is disclosed. A first sensor detects an actual position indicating a present rotational position of the steering wheel. A second sensor detects a wheel angle of the steered tire wheel. The steered tire wheel is driven by an electric type drive apparatus. The drive apparatus outputs a power output for operating the steered tire wheel in correspondence to a steering wheel operation. When a deviation exists between.the actual position of the steering wheel detected by the first sensor and the wheel angle of the steered tire wheel detected by the second sensor, a first compensation for compensating the actual position of the steering wheel so as to make the deviation small is executed by controlling the power output of the drive apparatus.
