Steering shaft component, steering shaft and production method

摘要

A steering shaft component (10) comprises a first and a second steering shaft section (12, 14) and at least a first bending section (28x) extending between the first and the second steering shaft sections (12, 14). The first bending section (28x) is formed integrally with at least one of the steering shaft sections (12, 14), but has a different cross section from this steering shaft section (12, 14). Furthermore, a mechanical stop for limiting the maximum angle of rotation of the two steering shaft sections relative to each other is provided.

1. A vehicle steering shaft component, comprising:
a first and a second steering shaft section comprising a common longitudinal axis; at least two bending sections separate from one another, wherein each of the at least two bending sections substantially extends in the axial direction between the first and the second steering shaft sections and is disposed spaced from the common longitudinal axis; and at least two cut-outs, wherein each bending section is laterally adjacent to at least one of these at least two cut-outs, respectively; wherein at least one of the at least two cut-outs defines at least one stop area that is part of one of the first and second steering shaft sections; wherein the at least one stop area limits, as a mechanical stop, the angle of rotation of the first and second steering shaft sections relative to each other around the common longitudinal axis to a predefined maximum angle of rotation; wherein the predefined maximum angle of rotation is less than 10°.
