主权项

1. An apparatus for tilting a steering column, comprising:
a tilt bracket coupled to a mounting bracket, for fixing a steering column tube in a predetermined portion of a vehicle, with the column tube interposed therebetween, so that the column tube tilts in a tele-out and tele-in manner relative to the mounting bracket when an operating lever is operated; a tilt shaft, one end of which is connected to the operating lever arranged outside a first side part of the tilt bracket, the other end thereof extending outward through the first side part and a second side part facing the first side part; and a fixation-holding unit comprising a fixing gear and a moving gear coupled to the second side part, and coupled to the other end of the tilt shaft extending through the second side part, thereby enabling the tilt bracket to be tilted or not tilted while the fixing gear and the moving gear come into contact with or are decoupled from each other when the operating lever is operated.
