ABSTRACT:
A power-assisted steering apparatus of the type which includes a control valve arranged to control hydraulic fluid under pressure supplied to a hydraulic power cylinder from a hydraulic pump therethrough in response to the driver's steering effort applied thereto, the power cylinder having a piston mounted therein for reciprocating movement and a piston rod supporting thereon the piston for movement therewith and extending outwardly from the cylinder in opposite directions. In the steering apparatus, a pair of axially spaced cylindrical reaction pistons are slidably mounted on the piston rod at the both sides of the power cylinder piston in such a manner as to be engageable at their inner ends with a pair of axially spaced internal end walls of the cylinder and at their outer ends with a pair of axially spaced retainer members on the piston rod when the power cylinder piston is retained in a neutral position.
