Abstract: A steering column locking device has an electromagnetic key interlock function that operates a solenoid to prevents a key knob from being undesirably moved to a lock position, as well as a mechanical key interlock function to conduct the key interlock function even when the solenoid malfunctions. The device includes the key knob and a plunger coupled to the key knob, so that when a user manipulates the key knob to start the vehicle, the plunger both moves axially and rotates. A cam shaft is coupled to the plunger, and a return spring is provided between the plunger and the cam shaft to bias the plunger towards the key knob. A stroke restrictor restricts a stroke of the plunger in the axial direction, and a push release functioning mechanism mechanically prevents the plunger from rotating from an accessory position to a lock position when the key interlock function fails.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mounting structure of a steering column locking device which makes it possible for the steering column locking device to be rotated upwards with respect to a steering column by an impact when part of a driver's body bumps against the steering column locking device in an accident, thereby minimizing injury to the driver. The mounting structure of the steering column locking device according to the present invention includes a connection housing which is mounted at a first end thereof to a steering column, with a coupling slot formed in a second end of the connection housing. The mounting structure of the steering column locking device further includes a coupling protrusion which is provided on the steering column locking device so that the coupling protrusion is movable inserted into the coupling slot of the connection housing, and a locking pin which is fitted into the coupling slot to support the coupling protrusion such that the coupling protrusion remains a stationary state.
