摘要： A steering roll connector assembly includes a roll stator. The assembly also includes a roll rotor telescoped in and rotatably coupled to the roll stator to allow relative rotation between the roll rotor and roll stator. The assembly further includes a lock pin operatively engaging the roll rotor, and the lock pin is releasable from the operative engagement with the roll rotor. The assembly yet further includes an arm extending from the lock pin and operatively engaging the roll stator when the lock pin couples to the roll rotor to prevent relative rotation between the roll rotor and the roll stator.

摘要： A steering roll connector configured to operatively engage a steering column. The steering roll connector may comprise a roll stator and a roll rotor telescoped in and rotatable with the roll stator. The roll rotor may have a wall and a surface, and the wall may define an opening for receiving the steering column. A slide may be supported by and movable on the surface from an unengaged position to an engaged position where the slide is positioned to engage and prevent the relative rotation between the roll rotor and roll stator. A spring may operatively engage the slide to causes it to be in the engaged position. When the steering column is received in the opening, a lever arm may operatively engage and pull the slide to the unengaged position.
