    Abstract: An electric power steering apparatus includes steering mechanisms that direct left and right front wheels of a vehicle equipped with the electric power steering apparatus according to rotation of a steering shaft to which a steering wheel is coupled, a first motor and a second motor that give an assist torque to the steering mechanisms, and a controller that controls the assist torques generated by the first motor and the second motor. The controller causes the first motor to generate the torque in a direction of the steering operation when a generation of the assist torque is started. The controller causes the second motor to generate the torque after a rotation of the first motor is detected. The torque of the second motor is smaller than the torque of the first motor and opposite from the direction of the steering operation.

    Abstract: A steering device includes: a rack; a pinion; a pinion shaft having the pinion on an outer circumferential surface thereof; a rack shaft having the rack that engages with the pinion; a rack guide that is provided on a side of the rack shaft opposite from the pinion shaft and guides the rack shaft along an axis of the rack shaft; a biasing member that biases the rack guide against the rack shaft to press the rack against the pinion; a guide housing that accommodates the rack guide and the biasing member; and a buffer member provided between an outer circumferential surface of the rack guide and an inner circumferential surface of the guide housing. The buffer member has a cylindrical member and an elastic member. The elastic member is disposed on at least either one of an inner circumferential surface and an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical member.

    Abstract: A coupling structure for vehicle chassis members couples a ball joint member and an axle housing used for a vehicle to each other. The structure includes a socket that has a substantially columnar external shape, is provided in the ball joint member, and has a socket bolt groove throughout a circumference in an outer circumferential surface of the socket. The structure also includes a collar that has a substantially cylindrical shape and is disposed so as to surround an outer circumferential surface of the socket. The axle housing has a coupling hole having a substantially columnar internal shape into which the socket is inserted. The ball joint member and the axle housing are coupled to each other by disposing the socket in the coupling hole while the socket is surrounded by the collar.

    Abstract: A suspension device has longitudinal force compliance steer properties to steer a rear wheel to toe-in or toe-out according to increase in longitudinal force applied to wheel treads of a rear wheel. The suspension device includes: a hub bearing housing; suspension links having both edges pivotally attached to a vehicle body and a hub bearing respectively, to support the hub bearing housing; a suspension spring generating reaction force corresponding to relative displacement amount in the longitudinal direction of the hub bearing housing as to the vehicle body; a damper generating damping force corresponding to relative speed in the longitudinal direction of the hub bearing housing as to the vehicle body; and a toe change generating unit generating toe change in a direction where toe change due to longitudinal force compliance properties is temporarily cancelled out or suppressed at an early stage of turning of the vehicle.
