The invention relates to a steering gear (11) for a vehicle having a helical gear (19), the helical gear (19) having a first gear wheel (21) and a second gear wheel (22) which engages with the first gear wheel (21), a first rotation axis (23) of the first gear wheel (21) being aligned so as to be transverse to a second rotation axis (24) of the second gear wheel (22), and an axis perpendicular (25) being aligned so as to be orthogonal to the first rotation axis (23) and to the second rotation axis (24), a smallest spacing between axes (26) between the first rotation axis (23) and the second rotation axis (24) coinciding with the axis perpendicular (25), and an engagement line (33) resulting by means of common contact points (34) of the two mutually engaged gear wheels (21, 22). In order to increase the diversity in terms of variants and/or to improve the adaptation possibilities, the steering gear (11) is characterized in that the engagement line (33) is spaced apart from the axis perpendicular (25).

Technical solutions for a motor assembly for an electric power steering system are provided. The motor assembly comprises a motor configured to rotate a motor shaft to apply a drive torque to an output shaft of a steering column. The motor assembly also comprises a circuit card assembly including a torque and angle sensor disposed upon a printed circuit board and configured to measure a differential angle between rotational positions of the output shaft and an input shaft. The printed circuit board of the circuit card assembly is disposed perpendicular to a rotational axis of the steering column. The motor assembly also comprises an enclosure coupled to the motor and containing the circuit card assembly and a worm shaft coupled to rotate with the motor shaft and having a worm disposed helically thereabout for driving a worm gear coupled to the output shaft.

A multi-piece gearwheel comprising an inner core section and an external toothed ring with external teething is presented. The core section has intermeshing teeth extending radially outwards, which have an undercut in cross-section in the radial direction. The toothed ring has recesses that originate from an inner side of the tooth ring and extend radially outwards, wherein the recesses are at least partially complementary to the intermeshing teeth, and wherein the intermeshing teeth are received in the recesses. Furthermore, a gearbox for an electromechanically-assisted steering system is described.

A power steering device includes a bearing rotatably supporting the tip side of a worm shaft, a gear case provided with the housing hole for housing the worm shaft and a holder housing the bearing. The holder includes a first holder holding the bearing, a second holder having the guide part configured to guide a movement of the second bearing toward a worm wheel, and a spring provided in a compressed state between the first holder and the second holder and configured to bias the first holder toward the worm wheel. The second holder includes a holder opening part configured to allow the bearing and the first holder to pass through thereof in the guiding direction of the guide part to guide the bearing, and the first holder faces an inner peripheral surface of the housing hole through the holder opening part.

A power transmission device of a steering system. A first connector includes a first coupling portion coupled to a first shaft and first supporting portions protruding axially from the first coupling portion. A second connector includes a second coupling portion coupled to a second shaft disposed coaxially with the first shaft and second supporting portions protruding axially from the second coupling portion to be circumferentially spaced apart from the first supporting portions. A damper is coupled axially between the first connector and the second connector, and includes blades supported circumferentially between the first supporting portions and the second supporting portions.

A floating bearing for a steering gear of a motor vehicle includes a rotary bearing having an inner bearing ring for receiving a screw pinion shaft of the steering gear, and an outer bearing ring built into a bearing sleeve. The bearing sleeve interacts with a guiding element, which interacts with a holding element, such that the bearing sleeve moves relative to the holding element in a first direction oriented radially to the longitudinal axis of the bearing sleeve when the screw pinion shaft is not loaded with torque, and relative movement is prevented when the screw pinion shaft is loaded with torque by moving the bearing sleeve in relation to the holding element in a second direction that is oriented radially to the longitudinal axis and perpendicularly to the first direction, whereby the guiding element is tilted in a guiding opening of the holding element or the bearing sleeve.

A motor includes a rotor, a stator that surrounds the radial outer side of the rotor, a housing that contains the rotor and the stator, a holder axially above the stator, a substrate fixed to the axial upper side of the holder, and a connector radially outward of the housing and electrically connected to the substrate. The holder includes a holder body, and a holder protrusion that connects to the holder body and extends radially outward from the housing. The connector contacts the underside of the holder protrusion.

The torque transmission joint includes an intermediate transmission member, and a first transmission member and a second transmission member that are arranged with one each on both side sections in the axial direction of the intermediate transmission member, with the outer side sections in the radial direction of each engaging with the inside section in the radial direction of the intermediate transmission member. The first transmission member and the second transmission member have a first preliminary engagement section and a second preliminary engagement section at the end sections in the axial direction on sides close to each other. The first preliminary engagement section and the second preliminary engagement section engage with each other with a circumferential gap interposed therebetween that does not disappear when torque transmission is performed between the first transmission member and the second transmission member via the intermediate transmission member.

The present disclosure provides a driving unit of a steering apparatus configured to provide an auxiliary torque of a steering apparatus and including a driving housing having an installation region formed therein, and the driving unit includes a worm shaft disposed in the installation region and having a worm gear formed therein, a first bearing rotatably supporting one side of the worm shaft, a damper penetrating and supporting one side of the worm shaft supported by the first bearing, and a stopper penetrating and supporting one side of the worm shaft passing through the damper, one end of the stopper being spaced apart from the damper so that a movement of the damper is limited in an axial direction of the worm shaft.

A motor includes a rotor including a shaft extending in an axial direction, a stator surrounding a radially outer portion of the rotor, a support into which the conductor is inserted, the support being made of an insulating material, and a holder including through holes to hold the support, in which the support includes the first and second protuberances at least a portion of which is located in the through hole, the first and second protuberances being provided at intervals, and a base portion connecting the first and second, protuberances, and in which at least a portion of each of facing regions of a side surface of the first protuberance is close to the holder, and the second protuberance has a clearance with respect to the holder.
