Steer-by-wire steering device and vehicle
A steer-by-wire steering device includes a first member, a second member, and stoppers. The first member is rotatable together with the input shaft, and includes a first protrusion protruding from the input shaft in the radial direction. The second member includes a second protrusion protruding on the trajectory of the first protrusion, and is rotatable together with the first member with the first protrusion being abutting the second protrusion. The stoppers are provided at respective positions capable of abutting on the trajectory of the second protrusion only when the second member is rotated by the first member.
1. A steer-by-wire steering device comprising:
a first member which rotates together with an input shaft when a steering wheel is turned, and which comprises a first protrusion protruding from the input shaft in a radial direction;
the first member further comprises a first weight that makes a weighted center of the first member consistent with the center of the input shaft;
a second member which is provided on the input shaft, has an offset weighted center relative to a center of the input shaft, and comprises a second protrusion protruding on a trajectory of the first protrusion, the second member being rotatable together with the first member with the first protrusion being abutting the second protrusion; and
a stopper which is placed at a position capable of abutting on a trajectory of the second member only when the second member is rotated by the first member, and which is capable of restricting a turn of the steering wheel via the input shaft when abutting with the second protrusion.
2. The steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 1 , wherein the first member further comprises a first base that surrounds the input shaft.
3. The steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 2 , wherein the second member further comprises a second base that surrounds the first base.
4. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 3 .
5. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 2 .
6. The steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second member further comprises a second base surrounding the input shaft, and a second weight provided on the second base, and
wherein the weighted center of the second member is located between the center of the input shaft and the second weight.
7. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 6 .
8. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 1 .
9. A steer-by-wire steering device comprising:
a first member which comprises a first base surrounding an input shaft to be rotated when a steering wheel is turned, and rotatable together with the input shaft, and a first protrusion protruding from the first base in a radial direction;
a second member which comprises a second base surrounding the first base, and a second protrusion protruding from the second base and on a trajectory of the first protrusion, the second member being rotatable together with the first member with the first protrusion being-abutting the second protrusion, and a weighted center of the second member being located between a center of the input shaft and the second protrusion; and
a stopper which is apart from the second protrusion, and is formed above the center of the input shaft on a trajectory of the second protrusion when the weighted center of the second member is located below the center of the input shaft, and is capable of restricting a turn of the steering wheel via the input shaft when abutting with the second protrusion.
10. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 9 .
11. A steer-by-wire steering device comprising:
a first member which comprises a first base surrounding an input shaft to be rotated when a steering wheel is turned, and rotatable together with the input shaft, and a first protrusion protruding from the first base in a radial direction;
a second member which comprises a second base surrounding the first base, a second protrusion protruding from the second base and on a trajectory of the first protrusion, and a second weight placed so as to overlap a line extended from the second protrusion and passing through a center of the input shaft, the second member being rotatable together with the first member with the first protrusion abutting the second protrusion, and a weighted center of the second member being located between the center of the input shaft and a tip of the second weight; and
a stopper which is apart from the second protrusion and is formed on a trajectory of the second protrusion when the weighted center of the second member is located below the center of the input shaft, and is capable of restricting a turn of the steering wheel via the input shaft when abutting with the second protrusion.
12. A vehicle comprising the steer-by-wire steering device according to claim 11 .
