ABSTRACT:
A rack and pinion are housed in a gear box, a valve sleeve that is joined to the pinion being housed in a valve housing such that the sleeve is free to rotate. A mechanism is provided that joins the gear box and valve housing in any desired relative rotation position. As the gear box and valve housing are formed independently, they may be formed by different manufacturing methods, and replacement of either of them is also easy. Further, an oil pressure port provided at a fixed position in the valve housing may be disposed at any desired rotation angle by selecting the relative rotation position of the gear box and valve housing.
