Electric power steering device

An electric power steering device (1) comprising:

• a steering column (10) provided with:
• a base (20);
• an upper segment (50) connected to the base (20), in which the upper segment (50) is connected in a tiltable manner with respect to the base (20);
• a steering axis (70) comprising a lower axis (71) rotatably contained inside the base (20);
• a hydrostatic steering assembly (80);
• an electrically assisted steering apparatus (90,90′) axially interposed between the steering column (10) and the hydrostatic steering assembly (80) the electrically assisted steering apparatus (90, 90′) comprises:
• a support frame (91) comprising a tubular central body (910);
• a shaft (92) whose upper end axially projects outside an upper end of the central body (910) and is connected to a lower end of the lower axis (71), and whose lower end is connected to the hydrostatic steering assembly (80);
• an electric motor (95) comprising an annular rotor (950) constrained in rotation to the shaft (92) and an annular stator (951) that coaxially surrounds the annular rotor (950) and is fixed inside the central body (910) of the support frame (91);
• wherein the upper end of the central body (910) of the support frame (91) of the electric steering apparatus (90,90′) is directly fixed to the base (20) of the steering column (10) and in contact therewith.
