Abstract:
1. A steering device comprising: a housing constituted by an enclosing main body section, a separation section formed on a lower side of the enclosing main body section along an axial direction thereof, and clamping sections formed respectively on two sides of the enclosing main body section so as to face each other in a lateral direction of the separation section; a fixed bracket having fixed side sections that clamp the housing at two sides in the lateral direction; a clamp that clamps the two clamping sections of the housing and the two fixed side sections of the fixed bracket; an outer pipe having at an axially front side thereof a slit formed in the axial direction; and an inner pipe inserted into an inner circumferential side of the outer pipe, wherein the slit of the outer pipe is configured to be positioned only on an upper side and be enclosed by the enclosing main body section, wherein the slit is configured such that a position of the slit of the outer pipe does not match a position of the separation section of the housing, and wherein the slit is designed such that a width of the slit is reduced and a diameter of the outer pipe is reduced when the housing is clamped together with the fixed bracket by the clamp during tilt and telescopic adjustment.
