Abstract
A steering device includes a first steering column arranged outside a steering shaft, and a second steering column arranged outside the first steering column and movable relative to the first steering column in a first direction. The first steering column includes a pin extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction. The second steering column includes a projection arranged on one side in the first direction of the pin and capable of abutting on the pin to prevent movement of the first steering column.
Claims7
A steering device comprising:
- a steering shaft extending in a first direction and having a steering wheel coupled to an end portion on one side in the first direction;
- a first steering column arranged outside the steering shaft;
- and
- a second steering column arranged outside the first steering column and is movable relative to the first steering column in the first direction via a first actuator device, wherein
- the first steering column includes a pin extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction,
- the second steering column includes a projection arranged on one side in the first direction of the pin and capable of abutting on the pin,
- the first steering column has a first flange and a second flange that protrude toward a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction and that are apart in the second direction,
- each of the first flange and the second flange has a through hole penetrating in the second direction,
- the pin penetrates a pair of the through holes,
- a part of the pin protrudes from one side of the first flange and the second flange toward the second direction, and
- the part is capable of abutting on the projection.
