ABSTRACT:
In the power steering device adapted to transmit a steering force to the front wheels via the pair of cables subjected to a tensile force, there is an apprehension that the cables might be unacceptably slacked to deteriorate the steering performance. To avoid such apprehension, at least one of two casings separately housing a drum on the side of the steering wheel and a drum on the side of the power cylinder is provided with a novel tensioner functioning to tension the inner cables by pressing the rollers against the respective inner cables under the biasing effect of the spring.
