ABSTRACT:
This is a shock absorbing steering device that provides the benefit of stable shock absorption in the event of a vehicle collision. A pair of connecting members connected through guide sections to a column that supports a steering shaft is connected to a vehicle member. This column is relatively movable in its axial direction with respect to the connecting members when force above a given level acts on the column along the axial direction. This column is arranged between the two connecting members.
