Motive power transmission mechanism and steering device

Abstract

A motive power transmission mechanism includes a motor, a drive pulley, a driven pulley, a belt, a housing, and a cap. The motor includes an output shaft and a motor main body. The drive pulley is configured to rotate together with the output shaft. The belt is wound across the drive pulley and the driven pulley to transmit torque from the drive pulley to the driven pulley. The housing accommodates the drive pulley, the belt, and the driven pulley. The housing includes a work window which faces the belt and through which the belt undergoes work from outside of the housing. The cap is configured to close the work window when the work is not performed. The cap includes a porous portion having air-permeability and water-impermeability.
