摘要

Device for locking the steering column of a vehicle comprises an aligning unit (40) having a fixed spring part on one end, a profiled protrusion on the other end and a recess on a drive wheel (15). The protrusion interacts with the counter profile of the recess and the drive wheel stops in the required exact position. Preferred Features: The protrusion acts on profiled bevels of the recess and exerts a torque on the drive wheel until the exact rotary position is achieved. The drive wheel, a motor (11) and a gearing system (12) are arranged in the housing (10).
