Steering device and steering system including steering devices

A steering system comprising:

• a steering device installed on a vehicle including a plurality of steerable wheels and configured to independently steer a wheel which is one of the plurality of steerable wheels, the steering device comprising:
• an electric motor as a drive source;
• a motion converting mechanism configured to convert a motion of the electric motor into a steering motion of the wheel;
• and
• a controller configured to control a supply current to the electric motor so as to achieve steering of the wheel corresponding to a motion position of the electric motor,
• wherein, to eliminate a discrepancy between the motion position of the electric motor and a steering position of the wheel detected based on the supply current to the electric motor supplied when the motion position of the electric motor is maintained at a straight-traveling-state position, the controller executes a reference change process of changing a setting of the straight-traveling-state position
• wherein the steering device is provided for each of at least three wheels of the vehicle,
• wherein the system is configured to:
• identify that the discrepancy between the motion position of the electric motor and the steering position of the wheel is generated in the steering device provided for one wheel among the at least three wheels when i) the supply current to the electric motor is not less than a set current in the steering device provided for the one wheel among the at least three wheels and ii) the supply current to the electric motor is less than the set current in the steering devices each provided for a corresponding one of at least two wheels which are the reminder of the at least three wheels except the one wheel;
• and
• execute the reference change process of changing the setting of the straight-traveling-state position so as to eliminate the discrepancy in the steering device provided for the one wheel among the at least three wheels.
