A device, for the coaxial connection of two parts eg shafts, comprises a coupling 1 having two flanges or clamping sleeves 12 and 11, one of the two flanges accepts a lower steering column 31 of the steering column 3 the other receives a bush 2. The bush 2, which may have a slot over its entire length, has a serration or serrations 22 on its inside bore which engage with the same profile on the outside diameter of a steering worm 41. Two flats 21 may be provided on the outside diameter of the bush which engages with a corresponding profile of the inside contour of the flange 11. A notch may be provided on the steering column 31 which engages with a groove in the flange 12. When connecting the bush is first fitted on to the steering worm 41 then the coupling 1 is assembled with the column 31 so as to assume a predetermined position. The two assemblies are brought axially in to line and the coupling pushed to a predetermined position (fig 2) and fixed by means of bolts 14 and 15. <IMAGE> |
