Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a container for cooling a technical device, in particular a test bench for a technical component, preferably for a compressor, and/or a battery storage device. The method can include a freight container and integrating a cooling device for cooling a cooling liquid into the freight container.

Abstract: A steering column may include a casing unit that can be connected to a body of a motor vehicle. A steering spindle may be rotatably mounted in the casing unit about a longitudinal axis. The casing unit may have an inner casing that is received in an outer casing so as to be telescopically adjustable in a direction of the longitudinal axis. A clamping device may be switchable between a fixing position in which it fixes the inner casing relative to the outer casing and a release position in which it allows telescopic adjustment of the inner casing relative to the outer casing. An energy absorption device may include a deformation element arranged between the inner casing and the outer casing. The casing unit may comprise a cable mounting that includes a fastening element for holding a cable and that is at least partly formed as a deformation element.

Abstract: A steering column may comprise a casing tube and a steering spindle that is mounted in the casing tube so as to be rotatable about a longitudinal axis. The steering column may further comprise fastening elements for fastening the steering column on the vehicle body. The steering column may include a pivot bearing for height adjustment of the steering column. The pivot bearing may be provided on a region of the steering column that is remote from the steering wheel. Further, the pivot bearing may be disposed or formed in a supporting element that is fastened non-releasably on the casing tube.

Abstract: A steering column may comprise a casing tube and a steering spindle that is mounted in the casing tube so as to be rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the casing tube. Because the casing tube may be an outer casing tube that has a non-circular inner cross section and because an adaptor may be manufactured from metal as an extruded part and may comprise an outer circumferential configuration that is compatible with an inner cross section of the casing tube and an interior annular bearing seat, the adaptor can be inserted into the outer casing tube and can be fastened there.

Abstract: A method may be used to produce a steering column for a motor vehicle that includes an inner steering column tube that receives a steering shaft such that the steering shaft is rotatable about its longitudinal axis, an outer steering column tube that receives the inner steering column tube and has a longitudinal slot that extends in a direction of the longitudinal axis, and a clamping apparatus that can be switched over between a release position in which the inner steering column tube is adjustable relative to the outer steering column tube and a fixing position in which the inner steering column tube is fixed relative to the outer steering column tube. The longitudinal slot may have a greater width in the release position than in the fixing position. The method may involve, amongst other steps, manufacturing at least one single blank of the outer steering column tube and/or of the inner steering column tube using an extrusion process.
