Steering column assembly for motor vehicle has fitting piece serving as wedge clamped between steering column body and assembly housing to keep body under tension in the housing

摘要

The guide and slide components of the steering column assembly have at least one fitting piece(19) serving as a wedge which is clamped between the steering column body(3) and assembly housing(7) to keep the body under tension. Consequently, the fitting clearance of the steering column body in the housing is automatically compensated for, and a defined resistance opposes the sliding movement of the body in the housing if the locking component is in the unlocking position.
