Abstract

1,001,985. Rack and pinion steering mechanism; bearings. ALFORD & ALDER (ENGINEERS) Ltd. May 15, 1964 [March 29, 1963], No. 12620/63. Headings F2A and F2Q. In a rack and pinion steering gear for a vehicle, the pinion spindle 16 is supported in bushes 14, 15 of elastomeric material, preferably polyurethane, and so shaped that the spindle 16 can yield more readily in the direction of the length of the rack 12 than transversely thereto. The bushes may be provided with flats which leave spaces 23, 24 to permit the spindle 16 to move sideways slightly under shock loads delivered to it by the rack 12. The rack 12 is urged into engagement with the pinion 13 by a spring-pressed saddle-shaped block 17. A screwed cap 27 houses a spring 18 and contains a lubricant nipple 28. In a modification, elastic bushes 14, 15 are moulded with cavities 25, 26.
