摘要:
A power steering apparatus includes a worm wheel mounted on the steering shaft, a worm shaft engaged with the worm wheel, a gear housing having a wheel accommodating portion to accommodate the worm wheel and a shaft accommodating portion to accommodate the worm shaft, a bearing mounted on the worm shaft to rotatably support the worm shaft, a holder disposed in the shaft accommodating portion and having a bearing retaining portion to retain the bearing and a resilient element disposed in the shaft accommodating portion and having a resilient body portion formed with a curvature. The resilient body portion is so structured as to become deformed in such a manner as to increase or decrease in diameter when the bearing shifts in a direction that moves the worm shaft away from the worm wheel and bias the bearing in a direction that urges the worm wheel toward the worm wheel.

A steering apparatus includes an axle housing rotatably supporting a wheel hub on which a steered road wheel is installed, and a lower suspension-system control arm adapted to be oscillatingly supported at one end on a vehicle body and having a turning portion provided at the other end for pivotably supporting the axle housing by the turning portion. An electric motor is installed on the lower arm for turning the axle housing by a driving force produced by the motor. A rotation axis of the motor and a pivot of the axle housing are arranged to be offset from each other.

An electric power steering system, includes a torque sensor disposed to a steering shaft to detect a steering torque. A first pinion is disposed to the steering shaft. A rack shaft is in mesh with the first pinion and connected with the steering shaft to change a rotational motion of the steering shaft to an axial motion of the rack shaft and provided to be operated in relation to the steering shaft. A first motor is connected with the first pinion to generate a steering assist torque in accordance with the steering torque detected by the torque sensor. A second pinion is disposed to be separate from the first pinion and in mesh with the rack shaft. A second motor is connected with the second pinion to generate a steering assist torque in accordance with the steering torque. A first control circuit is provided on a first control board for the first motor. A second control circuit is provided on the second control board for the second motor. The first control circuit monitors an abnormality in control state of the second control circuit and the second control circuit monitors an abnormality in control of the first control circuit.
