Patent ID: 7249650

Claim:
A vehicle steering device comprising: a rotation operating member that is operated to rotate a steering shaft; an absolute operation angle detecting means that detects an absolute operation angle of the rotation operating member; an operation-side motor that supplies an operating reaction force to the rotation operating member; a speed reduction mechanism interposed between a motor shaft of the operation-side motor and the steering shaft to reduce a rotation speed of the motor shaft and to transmit a reduced rotation to the steering shaft; a motor rotation angle detecting means provided at the motor shaft of the operation-side motor to detect a rotation angle of the operation-side motor; a steering-side motor that changes a steering angle via a transmission mechanism; a steering angle detecting means that detects the steering angle; and a control means that controls driving of the steering-side motor based on the steering angle and the absolute operation angle of the rotation operating member, and that controls driving of the operation-side motor based on the steering angle and the rotation angle of the operation-side motor.
