DISPOSITIF DE BLOCAGE EN ROTATION A LIMITATION DE COUPLE, NOTAMMENT POUR COLONNE DE DIRECTION DE VEHICULE AUTOMOBILE

摘要

The steering lock has a toothed sleeve (1) fitted over the steering column (2) to engage a locking bolt. The sleeve is fitted tightly over the steering column. The sleeve has its inner surface formed with inward projecting ridges (4,5,6) distributed round the inner periphery. The limited coupling these provide with the surface of the steering column allows elastic deformation between the locking sleeve and the steering column. The sleeve is fitted with sufficient force to induce elastic deformation between sleeve and steering column during fitting.
