As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this type of rack guide includes a pinion 4 connected to the steering wheel, and a rack 3, which is supported in a floating state at the other end via a bearing 2 at one end, in a steering gear box 1, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
The rack guide 5 is provided in elastic contact with the rear surface of the rack 3 in order to mesh without backlash, but the rack guide 5 is formed in a cylindrical shape with an arcuate recess on the lower surface as the elastic contact surface. The guide chamber 6 is fitted into a cylindrical guide chamber 6 protruding from the guide chamber 1, and is brought into elastic contact by compressing a spring 7 placed on the upper surface of the guide chamber 6 through a screw 8 screwed into the chamber 6. . The guide 5 has low frictional resistance to allow the rack 3 to slide smoothly, has high compression rigidity against vibrations and impact loads transmitted to the rack 3, and has a high compression rigidity when subjected to impact loads. One of the present applicants previously filed Utility Model Application No. 115073-1983 (see Japanese Utility Model Application No. 18665-1988) as a device that could sufficiently satisfy such requirements. As shown in FIG. 3, we proposed a rack guide 5 having a core material 5b made of resin with high compressive strength and covered with a skin material 5a made of resin with a low coefficient of friction.

A resin core material with high compressive strength mixed with glass fiber has been disclosed, but the compressive strength of the core material increases as the degree of glass fiber mixed therein increases, resulting in the following problems.

その1つは打音の音質が高くなり又音の伝達性

One is that the sound quality of the hitting sound becomes higher and the sound transmission becomes better, making the hitting sound even louder.The other one is that the sound quality of the hitting sound becomes higher and the sound transmission becomes better, so the hitting sound becomes louder.The other one is that the hitting sound becomes louder due to the difference in thermal expansion between the core material and the skin material that covers it. Cracks occur during use.

The inventors of the present invention have conducted various research studies to improve these drawbacks and have found a solution.

That is, a core material with high compressive strength can be obtained by mixing glass fiber, but if the percentage of glass fiber mixed is less than 20% by weight, the core material cannot reliably support the return of the rack. Not possible, therefore 20%
It was confirmed that a mixing rate of 40% or less by weight was required, and increasing the mixing rate further would cause the problems mentioned above. It's something I've earned.

Note that PBT is used as the resin to which glass fiber is mixed.
Thermoplastic resins such as resin, nylon 66, and polyacetal resin are used.Resins with low friction coefficients include oil-impregnated acetal, oil-impregnated nylon 66, and oil-impregnated nylon 12.
The resin layer is 2mm thick.
The following was made.

A desirable combination of resins is core material 5.
Good results can be obtained by using polybutylene terephthalate reinforced with 30% glass fiber, which has low hygroscopicity and excellent dimensional stability, for b, and using oil-impregnated acetal resin, which also has little dimensional change, for the skin material 5a. In addition, when heat resistance is required, good results were obtained by using glass fiber-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide resin for the core material and oil-impregnated nylon 66 resin for the skin material.
