A rear wheel steering motor generates rotational force. A movement converter has a converting portion coupled to the wheel steering motor and configured to convert the rotational force transmitted from the rear wheel steering motor into a linear movement. An MR fluid is applied on the converting portion. An inverter controls driving of the rear wheel steering motor. A magnet switch works in concert with the inverter to change a magnetic field to selectively provide the magnetic field to the MR fluid of the movement converter.

Rear wheel steering system

An anti-reverse clutch apparatus includes an input shaft provided with a push handle, an output shaft mounted coaxially with the input shaft and rotatable relative to the input shaft, a clutch housing including an internal gear formed along an internal circumferential surface of the clutch housing, and a locking block, which is mounted between the output shaft and the internal circumferential surface of the clutch housing, and rotatable together with the output shaft and which includes an external gear, which is formed along an external circumferential surface of the locking block to be engaged with the internal gear, the locking block being linearly moved in a radial direction of the output shaft by a sloped surface structure formed between the push handle and the locking block so that the external gear is engaged with or disengaged from the internal gear when the push handle is rotated.
