Patent

CA 2195270

A steering assembly including a steering shaft, a tubular housing, and at least one deformable sleeve bearing. The sleeve bearing is interposed between the tubular housing and the steering shaft wherein the shaft is rotatably supported. The sleeve bearing is formed of a polymeric material having a predetermined hardness which is less than the predetermined hardness of the steering shaft. Thus, if foreign matter such as dirt or debris enters the steering assembly, the sleeve bearing may be disfigured, thereby preventing the foreign matter from obstructing normal steering operations.

nité de direction comprenant un arbre de direction, un logement tubulaire et au moins un palier à coussinet-douille déformable. Le palier à coussinet-douille est placé entre le logement tubulaire et l'arbre de direction, supportant celui-ci et lui permettant de tourner. Le palier à coussinet-douille est formé d'un matériel polymérique possédant un indice de dureté préétabli qui est moindre que celui de l'arbre de direction. Ainsi, des corps étrangers tels que de la terre ou des débris qui pénètrent dans l'unité de direction pourraient altérer le palier à coussinet-douille sans toutefois gêner les opérations normales de direction.
