A steering device of the present invention has a steered shaft rotation stopper (100) having a contact member (101) and a forcing member (102). The forcing member (102) forces at least either one of a steered shaft (6) or the contact member (101) in a direction in which the steered shaft (6) and the contact member (101) push against each other. In a state in which the contact member (101) contacts a contact portion (6D) of the steered shaft (6), the contact member (101) stops a rotation of the steered shaft (6).

A torque transmission device has a pinion that includes a plurality of rollers that mesh with a plurality of teeth of an output. Each roller is supported by a bearing having rotating bearing elements. A clearance compensation for the diametrical difference between a diameter of each roller and an inscribed diameter of the associated rotating bearing elements is included in the plurality of teeth of the output such that there is no interference between the plurality of rollers and the plurality of teeth.

A steering system includes a rack shaft, a tubular rack housing, and a tubular rack bushing. The rack bushing is interposed between the outer surface of the rack shaft and the inner surface of the rack housing. The rack bushing supports the rack shaft such that the rack shaft is slidable in the axial direction. The rack housing includes an annular groove on its inner surface. The rack bushing includes a collar. a through slit. and first non-through slits. The collar protrudes radially outward from substantially the entire circumference of the rack bushing. The collar is fitted into the annular groove. The through slit passes through the rack bushing in the axial direction. Each first non-through slit extends in the axial direction such that the first non-through slit passes through a portion of the rack bushing whose axial position corresponds to the axial position of the collar.

An aircraft undercarriage leg having an orientation control for wheels that causes a sliding rod to pivot. The orientation control has a rotating member mounted on the strut assembly having a toothed sector forming a pinion and is rotationally coupled to the sliding rod, and a rack mounted to slide on the strut assembly along a sliding axis perpendicular to the pivot axis to mesh with the pinion, the rack being moved by drive means. The drive include a rotary drive inside the rack adapted to turn about the sliding axis and to cooperate via a helicoidal coupling with the rack, The rotary drive is immobilized axially by two opposite axial thrust bearings allowing angular tilting of the rotary drive. The thrust bearings are carried by at least one elongate support inside the rack having a proximal end fixed to an end of a cylinder in which the rack slides.
