Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de direction (100) qui comprend : un corps d'arbre d'entrée (110) ; un élément fixe (120) ; un élément mobile (130) qui supporte le corps d'arbre d'entrée (110) ; un mécanisme de guidage côté supérieur (140) qui est disposé à une position supérieure et qui guide l'élément mobile (130) ; et un mécanisme de guidage côté latéral (160) qui est disposé latéralement par rapport au corps d'arbre d'entrée (110) et qui guide le déplacement de l'élément mobile (130). Le mécanisme de guidage côté supérieur (140) comprend : un rail fixe côté supérieur (141) qui est fixé à l'élément fixe (120) et qui a une première voie (145) faisant face à un côté de celui-ci et une deuxième voie (146) faisant face à un autre côté ; un rail mobile côté supérieur (142) qui a une troisième voie (149) opposée à la première voie (145) et une quatrième voie (150) opposée à la deuxième voie (146) ; une première rangée d'éléments roulants (143) disposée entre la première voie (145) et la troisième voie (149) ; et une seconde rangée d'éléments roulants (144) disposée entre la deuxième voie (146) et la quatrième voie (150).
