Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To sink a steering itself when a load is applied to the steering so as to reduce the impact to be applied to a driver. SOLUTION: In a steering shaft, a part extended from a steering basic part is used as a movable part 1, and a spring is provided between a cylindrical fixed part 2 which receives it and it. Consequently, it is possible to reduce the impact generated between the steering and a driver at the time of collision. Moreover, its repetitive use is possible, and a complicated sensing device is unnecessary.
