Abstract: An electromechanical power steering system having an electric servo motor having a motor shaft. The electric servo motor drives a shaft which meshes with a helical wheel. The shaft is rotatably supported in a gear mechanism housing. The motor shaft is coupled to the shaft in a rotationally secure manner by a coupling which compensates for an axial offset. The shaft at the end thereof close to the motor is supported in a bearing in the gear mechanism housing so as to be able to be rotated about a rotation axis and is pivotably supported about a pivot axis which is perpendicular to the rotation axis in such a manner that the pivot axis is arranged in the region of the coupling.

Abstract: An example steering shaft for a motor vehicle steering system for use with a power assistance system may include an input shaft, an output shaft, and a torsion bar. The torsion bar may connect the input and output shafts in a torsionally elastic manner for purposes of transmitting a torque, in many cases from the input shaft to the output shaft. In particular, a joining section of the torsion bar may be connected to a joining socket of one or more of the input shaft or the output shaft. The joining section may include partial elevations for forming a nonpositive and positive connection to the joining socket.
