Abstract
A rack-and-pinion steering gear structure for a vehicle including a rack housed within a cylinder and driven by means of a pinion shaft, comprises an annular piston received with suitable axial clearance in an annular groove defined by three surfaces, namely the end face of one end of the rack, a seating surface of a head of a bolt screwed into a boss projecting from the end of the rack, and the outer periphery of the boss itself. An elastic annular seal member is interposed between the inner periphery of the piston and the outer periphery of the boss.
