Abstract

A problem with hydraulic steering controllers is that noise can be transmitted along the steering shaft to the driver's cabin. To reduce this noise transmission, the shaft comprises two parts between which there are two torsion couplings, one being an elastic coupling and the other a lost motion coupling, the elastic coupling only being effective until the torsional force applied to the shaft reaches a predetermined level whereupon the lost motion coupling becomes effective usually when there is a failure of pressure source to the controller. In the three embodiments described elastomeric material is used in the elastic coupling. The lost motion couplings may be pin and slot 27, 28, Fig. 2; bifurcated interengaging tubular portions 136, 137, leaving play 138, Fig. 5; or internal and external spline type ribs 240, 242, Fig. 7. <IMAGE>
