Abstract
A steering system for a motor vehicle having at least one steerable wheel, an actuator and a superposing gear assembly. The steering movement, which is initiated by the driver of the vehicle, and the movement, which is initiated by the actuator, are superposed by the superposing gear assembly for generating a steering movement of the steerable wheel within pregiven steering stops. The essence of the invention is that the movement, which is initiated by the actuator, is at least reduced before reaching the steering stop. According to the invention, one arrives at a superposed steering with which the steering stops are considered so as to provide increased safety and increased comfort.
