    摘要: A steering device with an impact absorbing mechanism includes an upper column tube configured to support a steering shaft, a lower column tube configured to be movable relative to the upper column tube and an upper fixing bracket to be coupled to the upper column tube and including a cut on the side of a steering wheel. The impact absorbing mechanism includes a bracket fixing portion fixed to the upper fixing bracket, a capsule portion fixed to a vehicle body and engaged with the cut, and a breaking portion connecting the bracket fixing portion and the capsule portion and configured to be broken by relative movements of the upper fixing bracket and the capsule portion. A connected position of the breaking portion to the capsule portion is near a front side of the vehicle body.
