摘要： The invention provides a steering column assembly (10, 10a, 10b) for a vehicle. The steering column assembly (10, 10a, 10b) includes a steering column (12, 12a, 12b) operable to adjustably support a steering wheel in the vehicle. The steering column assembly (10, 10a, 10b) is moveable along a path (14, 14a, 14b) for collapsing movement relative to a vehicle in response to an impact situation. The steering column assembly (10, 10a, 10b) also includes an energy absorber (16, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, 16e, 16f) for dissipating energy associated with the collapsing movement of the steering column (12, 12a, 12b) along the path (14, 14a, 14b). The energy absorber (16, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, 16e, 16f) includes an anvil (18, 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e, 18f) fixedly disposed relative to one of the steering column (12, 12a, 12b) and the path (14, 14a, 14b). The energy absorber (16, 16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, 16e, 16f) also includes a strap (20, 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, 20e, 20f) drawable over the anvil (18, 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e, 18f) and substantially fixedly disposed relative to the other of the steering column (12, 12a, 12b) and the path (14, 14a, 14b). The steering column assembly (10, 10a, 10b) also includes at least one quick release bolt (22, 22b, 22c, 22d) engaged with the strap (20, 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, 20e, 20f) to selectively release the strap (20, 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, 20e, 20f) relative to the other of the steering column (12, 12a, 12b) and the path (14, 14a, 14b).

摘要： A vehicular steering column assembly (16) comprises a support bracket (26) which is joined to an outer, non-rotating sleeve (22). A release capsule (30) is releasably joined to a mounting surface (28) of the support bracket (26) via a plurality of spherical bodies (56) whose protruding crowns (52) are seated in corresponding longitudinally-extending furrows (54) in the release capsule (30). Upon the application of sufficient force to the steering column (16), such as during a collision, the support bracket (26) is urged out of engagement with the release capsule (30) with the respective furrows (54) sliding over the crowns (52). The sliding engagement between the crowns (52) and the furrows (54) can be adjusted to establish a highly predictable and consistent release force and which is capable of increasing the frequency value for the steering column (16).

摘要： The invention provides a steering column assembly for a vehicle. The steering column assembly includes a steering column operable to adjustably support a steering wheel in the vehicle. The steering column assembly also includes a locking bracket adjacent to the steering column and moveable along a path for collapsing movement. The steering column assembly also includes a locking member supported in two-way movement by the locking bracket between a first position and a second position spaced from one another. In the first position, the locking member locks the locking bracket and the steering column member together. When the locking member is in the second position, the steering column member is moveable relative to the locking bracket. The steering column assembly also includes at least one quick release bolt engaged with the locking bracket to selectively fix the locking bracket with respect to the vehicle. The at least one quick release bolt is selectively divisible into at least two portions independently of the collapsing movement of the locking bracket along the path.

摘要： A steering column assembly for operating a vehicle packages mechanical components and electrical devices normally found in or around the steering column of the vehicle into a single unit. An on-board processor accepts signals from the electrical devices, which may include motor actuators for steering column adjustments and/or pedal position adjustments. The on-board processor connects to a vehicle communications bus to communicate data received from the electrical devices to various systems throughout the vehicle. The on-board processor also receives data from the various systems. The steering column assembly also includes a display connected to the on-board processor. The display and on-board processor moves with the steering column as it is adjusted for telescope and/or tilt position. The operator receives information about the operation of the vehicle from the display. All components, including the on-board processor, are operatively connected to a column support, allowing the steering column assembly to be installed as a unit. Therefore, the steering column assembly installs quickly into the vehicle with a reduced chance of installation error.
