Lenksäule für ein Kraftfahrzeug

摘要

A motor vehicle steering column including a steering shaft (112), a steering wheel having a hub (94) thereon, and a lateral thrust attachment between the steering shaft and the hub of the steering wheel. Lateral thrust between the hub (94) and the steering shaft (112) is induced directly by a rod (130) on the hub which laterally traverses the end of the steering shaft. The rod has a frustoconical body (136) which seats in a correspondingly shaped notch (118) in the steering shaft so that bodily movement of the rod relative to the notch induces the aforesaid lateral thrust between the hub and the steering shaft. The rod (136) interferes with the lateral notch (118) to prevent dislodgment of the hub from the steering shaft.
