ABSTRACT:
In a fastening device for a tiltable steering wheel assembly, the locking lever of the device is set in the locked position beyond the rotary dead point of a rotary cam element pivoted on a fastening bolt so as to firmly hold the steering column tube assembly at a desired angle with respect to the driver. The locking lever is positioned substantially parallel with respect to the steering column tube assembly in the locked position to prevent unexpected release of the locking lever by the driver's legs.
