ABSTRACT:
A telescopic steering-wheel shaft (1) is rotatably mounted in a column body (4-6) capable of pivoting about a horizontal axis (17). The column body (6) is supported at one end by a slide (48) for suspension on a rack (26) driven by a pinion (24) carried by the output shaft of a geared motor (20). A pressure screw (52) acting on the column body and on the slide ensures that play is taken up. The column body (6) is connected at its opposite end to a rack driven by a pinion (80) carried by the output shaft of a second geared motor (84).
