ABSTRACT:
A steering system for vehicles including a signal providing mechanism (34) for providing an information signal (Su) in relation to the vehicle speed, in which the steered angle ratio of a rear wheel (20) to a front wheel (7) is controlled to be variable in accordance with the information signal.
The signal providing mechanism comprises a sensor (34) adapted to detect the shift position of a speed change gear (33) of the vehicle.
In the steering system, the steered angle ratio of the rear wheel (20) to the front wheel (7) may be controlled to be variable in accordance with the vehicle speed, wherein the vehicle speed is detected by a cooperative combination of a sensor (34) for detecting the shift position of a speed change gear (33) of the vehicle and a sensor (43) for detecting the number of revolutions per minute of an engine (42) of the vehicle.
