Steering wheel arrangement for a motor vehicle

摘要

A known steering wheel arrangement has a crown gear which is assigned to the central component and a crown gear which is assigned to the outer pipe, the central component being synchronised in relation to the outer pipe by means of a control belt which encloses both crown gears together and is coupled to a part which is connected fixed in terms of rotation to the steering wheel. According to the invention, the two crown gears each have a conical toothing which faces the other crown gear, and a kinematic reversing gear is provided between the two crown gears, the said reversing gear having two planetary wheels which are held, with an axis of rotation which is radial to the axis of the steering spindle, in an intermediate component which is fixed in terms of rotation with the steering spindle, so as to be capable of moving counter to the restoring forces of at least one spring element with an axial degree of freedom and a radial degree of freedom which runs perpendicularly through the two axes of rotation, each planetary wheel having a conical toothing which intermeshes with one of the two crown gears and an axially offset end toothing which intermeshes with the complementary end toothing of the other planetary gear.
