ABSTRACT:
A power steering apparatus in which a motor for assisting steering force is mounted in such a manner that it is positioned substantially in parallel to a rack shaft of a rack-pinion type steering mechanism, and a planetary roller reduction device and a bevel gear connected directly thereto are mounted to the rotary shaft of the motor, coaxially with the motor, whereby the speed of the turning force of the motor may be reduced sufficiently and thus decelerated turning force is transmitted to the rack shaft, to permit compact disposing of the motor and the reduction device around the steering mechanism. In one embodiment of the invention the motor is mounted below the rack shaft and in another above the rack shaft between the steering wheel and the rack shaft.
