Power steering apparatus

摘要

When a steering wheel is relatively quickly turned at the time of parking, before a first stopper mechanism located between an input shaft and an output shaft is operated, an elastic member 47 attached to a movement end of a rack shaft 13 comes into contact with a rack stopper 39 of a rack housing 14, thereby absorbing the impact at the time of steering at parking. That is, the strike speed when contact portions of the first stopper mechanism are brought into contact with each other, is slowed down. Accordingly, the uncomfortable noise due to the strike sound is not given to the driver. <IMAGE>
