Question

A steering gear transforms rotary motion of the steering wheel into the recip rocating motion of the_______.

• A. drag link
• B. drop arm
• C. pull and push rod
• D. cross shaft

Hint:

The drag link is used in steering mechanisms to transmit motion, converting rotary to linear movement.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

A steering gear system converts the rotary motion of the steering wheel into the linear (reciprocating) motion necessary to turn the wheels. The ”drag link” is an essential component of the steering mechanism, transferring the rotary movement from the steering box to the steering arm, which helps in turning the wheels. Hence, the correct answer is ”drag link.”
