  • Publication number: 20160052536
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a steering shaft bearing unit for supporting a steering shaft of a motor vehicle fed through the steering shaft bearing unit such that the steering shaft can be rotated about a longitudinal axis, wherein the steering shaft bearing unit has a first jacket part and at least one second jacket part and the second jacket part, guided in at least one slide bearing of the first jacket part, is supported in the first jacket part such that the second jacket part can be moved along the longitudinal axis, wherein the slide bearing has at least two slide bearing parts and during the assembly of the steering shaft bearing unit the second jacket part is inserted between the slide bearing parts in a first step, then the slide bearing parts are pressed against the second jacket part in a relative motion toward each other in a second step, and thereafter the slide bearing parts are fixed in the position in the first jacket part achieved by means of the relative motion in a third

  • Patent number: 9233707
    Abstract: A steering column for a motor vehicle, with a bracket unit for fastening the steering column to the motor vehicle bodywork, and with at least one steering spindle bearing unit for the rotatable mounting of a steering spindle of the steering column, and with at least one bending clip for absorbing energy during a movement of the steering spindle bearing unit relative to the bracket unit by means of deformation of the bending tab. At least two bending limbs of the bending tab are connected to one another by at least one bent-over portion of the bending tab. One of the bending limbs is fastened to the steering spindle bearing unit, and the other bending limb is fastened or can be fastened to the bracket unit by at least one connecting device which can be released without being destroyed.
