STEERING DEVICE

Abstract: a steering device including a tube, a moving member, a drive device that moves the moving member in the axial direction, a first fixing member provided on one first member that is either the tube or the moving member, and fixes the tube to the moving member, and a restriction portion on the second member that is the other of the tube or the moving member, is separated from the first fixing member in the axial direction, and restricts the tube and moving member relatively rotating about a rotational center axis intersecting the steering shaft axis. when a predetermined load acts on the tube in a direction in which the first member is relatively moved in the axial direction with respect to the second member, either the first member or the second member plastically deforms a deformation portion provided on another of either the first member or the second member.
