    Patent number: 9187115
    Abstract: A steering apparatus has a tilt mechanism, and a locking direction of a tilt lock operation lever is a direction in which the operation lever is pushed down about a central axis. A width of a second end of a tilt elongate hole, which is located on a tilt direction lower side, is narrower than a width of a first end of the tilt elongate hole, which is located on a tilt direction upper side.
    Type: Grant

  • Steering system
    Patent number: 8943923
    Abstract: In a steering system including a lock mechanism, at a time of locking, a first cam that is rotated together with a lock shaft generates a pressing force for pushing up an inner tube in an upward tilt direction. A second cam that is rotated together with the lock shaft presses an abutting portion of an urging member in a downward tilt direction. The abutting portion of the urging member applies a pressing reaction force in the upward tilt direction, to the second cam. The pressing reaction force serves as a force for pushing up the first cam in the upward tilt direction, through the second cam and the lock shaft.
