DISPOSITIF D'IMMOBILISATION AXIALE TEMPORAIRE D'UN AXE DANS UN COPRS TEL QU'UN TUBE ENVELOPPE DE COLONNE DE DIRECTION.

摘要

Inside the body or tube (1), the shaft (2) carries a washer (10) which has a collar or circumferential rib (14) and is mounted on the shaft in such a way as to be fixed to it. The collar is held between two radial limit pieces (18, 19) carried by a locking member (16) projecting through an orifice in the tube. The radial limit pieces are specially shaped and interact with a cam formed on the washer (10) to facilitate the ejection of the member (16) when the shaft (2) is rotated. …This device is particularly suitable for immobilising a steering column shaft in a steering column tube before fitting on a vehicle. ……
