Therefore, in a decoupling state, even if the steering wheel rotates, the steering torque cannot be transmitted to the wheels, the wheels are still, and abrasion of the wheels is avoided.
In addition, in actual use, after a certain degree of use, there is wear between the steering rack 1 and the steering pinion 2 of the steering gear 3, and therefore, the drive unit 4 can also drive the trailing arm unit 5 to move for adjusting the meshing gap between the steering rack 1 and the steering pinion 2. Thus, when the abrasion reaches a certain degree, the driving unit 4 drives the supporting arm unit 5 to move, and the steering gear shaft 2 can be rotatably arranged on the mounting part, so that the meshing gap between the steering gear rack 1 and the steering gear shaft 2 can be eliminated, and the stability of the vehicle after the running durability is ensured.
In addition, in order to enable the lifting of the steering gear shaft 2 to be better engaged with the steering rack 1 when switching from the decoupled state to the coupled state, the drive unit 4 can register an initial coupling position of the trailing arm unit 5 in the coupled state, and the drive unit 4 can drive the trailing arm unit 5 to return to the initial coupling position when driving the trailing arm unit 5 to switch from the decoupled state to the coupled state. Thus, a good initial coupling state between the steering rack 1 and the steering pinion 2 can be achieved.

Of course, the shape and size of the opening 11 can be selected according to actual requirements, and for example, the opening can be a rectangular opening.
In addition, the movement guide plane 8 may be formed at any position of the outer circumferential surface of the protruding portion. In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1 and 2, at least one of the chamber end walls 9 has a movement guide plane 8 formed on its outer peripheral surface. Since at least one of the chamber end walls 9 can project into the diverter housing 6, the chamber end wall 9 can thus be utilized to form the movement guide plane 8 for planar sliding contact with a corresponding plane on the inner surface of the diverter housing 6 for movement guidance.
In addition, in the steering on-off device, the driving unit 4 may have various types. For example, in one embodiment of the drive unit 4, referring to fig. 2, the drive unit 4 comprises a drive motor 12 and a controller, wherein the controller is capable of recording an initial rotation angle of the drive motor 12 in the coupled state and, upon transition from the decoupled state to the coupled state, the controller is capable of controlling the drive motor to return to the initial rotation angle.
