摘要： A steering system for a marine pod drive is disclosed. The system includes a driving pinion attached to a driving shaft. The system further includes a driven gear mounted to a driven shaft. Moreover, the system includes an intermediate gear mounted to an intermediate shaft and in mesh with the driving pinion. Furthermore, an intermediate pinion is attached to the intermediate shaft. The intermediate pinion is in mesh with the driven gear on the driven shaft. Moreover, the intermediate pinion may be fastened with the intermediate gear by a shear pin such that the intermediate pinion rotates with the intermediate gear. The shear pin may be configured to shear when a torque transmitted through the system exceeds a rated torque value, thereby causing the intermediate gear to rotate freely on the intermediate shaft.
