The stopper member 43 is arranged so as to be movable between an inhibition position at which the stopper member 43 engages with the auxiliary lock member 27 and a release position at which the engagement is released. A hold member 47 which engages with the stopper member 43 so as to hold the stopper member 43 at the inhibition position is provided. The hold member 47 is detachably installed to an inner face of the housing or the housing cover. The hold member 47 may be installed on a spring which also energizes the lock bolt 12 in the steering shaft direction.</p> |
