ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for locking an adjustable safety steering column for motor vehicles that is arranged to be tiltable and lockable with respect to the vehicle body, has consoles coupled to the vehicle body with guiding slots arranged approximately in a vertical plane, the steering column being tiltable between these consoles. An operating lever of the arrangement has an operating rod. An adjustable clamping device locks the safety column with respect to the vehicle body, and includes an eccentric element arranged in parallel to the axis of the steering column and axially on this operating rod. A pull rod has an end side receiving device in which a free end of the operating rod is pivoted, said pull rod extending transversely with respect to the axis of the steering column through the guiding slots. This allows the steering column to be easily adjusted by simply turning the operating rod.
