<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make the mode of the curving or the bending a rack shaft different in the case to bend the other end of the rack shaft in the direction separating from a pinion, and in the case to bend in the direction squeezing to the pinion, by a road surface reaction or a moment resulting from a ball screw, and thereby, to reduce the amplification of the vibration of the rack shaft by a resonance. SOLUTION: In this electric power steering device 1, a rack-and-pinion mechanism 3 connected to a steering handle is provided to a steering system, and the auxiliary torque of an electric motor 8 is applied to a rack shaft 5 through a ball screw 9, and the ball screw is assembled to one end of the rack shaft, a pinion 4 is engaged to the other end of the rack shaft, and a rack guide 50 to squeeze the rack shaft to the pinion is provided between the ball screw and the pinion.</p> |
