ABSTRACT:
A steering device for a vehicle having front and rear wheels. The device includes a front wheel turning mechanism operatively connected to a steering wheel and turning the front wheels at a steering angle proportional to a steering angle of the steering wheel, and a rear wheel turning mechanism for turning the rear wheels at a turning angle corresponding to a steering angle of the steering wheel. A first transmitting mechanism for moving the rear wheel turning member at a first rate corresponding to an amount of rotation of the input shaft and a second transmitting mechanism for moving the rear wheel turning member at a second rate corresponding to an amount of rotation of the input member, are disposed between the input member rotated in proportion to a steering angle of a steering wheel of the rear wheel turning means and a rear wheel turning member connected to tire-rods for turning the rear wheels.
