An electric power steering device is provided which is excellent in the
nature being mounted on a vehicle. The electric power steering device 1
comprises a rack shaft 20 constructed to be movable reciprocatively, a
rack housing 10 receiving the rack shaft 20 therein, a sleeve 41 arranged
coaxially around the rack shaft 20, a brushless motor 40 taking a
generally cylindrical shape and constructed to rotate the sleeve 41, and
a rotational angle sensor 50 constructed to detect the rotational angle
of the brushless motor 40. The rack housing 10 has arranged thereon a
power connecter 42 for supplying electric power to the brushless motor 40
and a sensor connecter 52 for outputting a detection signal of the
rotational angle sensor 50. The power connecter 42 and the sensor
connecter 52 are arranged to be shifted on the same side in the axial
direction of the rack shaft 20 with respect to the brushless motor 40.
