Abstract
A steering coupling structure is disclosed which includes a cylindrical bushing mounted in a transmission line of a steering force in a steering system of a motor vehicle, such that an axis of the bushing extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the steering system. The cylindrical bushing includes an inner sleeve connected to one of the input and output shafts of the steering system, an outer sleeve disposed radially outwardly of the inner sleeve and connected to the other shaft; and an annular elastic body interposed between the input and output sleeves for elastic connection thereof. The elastic body has diametrically opposed hollow portions formed on opposite sides of the inner sleeve such that the hollow portions extend in an axial direction of the bushing between the inner and outer sleeves, and such that the hollow portions are substantially opposed to each other in a diametric direction of the elastic body which is parallel to the axis of rotation of the steering system.
