Abstract

See full text

The push member device (1) of the present invention includes a rotatable mounting (4), the inner circumference (5) of which is eccentric relative to the outer circumference (6). The mounting (4) is rotationally biased in a direction by a spring (10) and is placed against the back of the rack (2) that is thus pushed against the teeth of the steering pinion. The rotatable mounting (4) is rotatably mounted in a housing (7), itself being slidably mounted in the steering gearbox. A shock absorbing spring means (11) is arranged between the sliding housing (7) and the steering gearbox to absorb the alignment defects of the rack (2).
