ABSTRACT:
A steering column support includes a solid holder or box arranged for stationary mounting in a vehicle. The steering column support also includes a steering column which is longitudinally displacable (slidable) and/or rotatable (tiltable) in relation to the stationary box and means for providing a locking and releasing, respectively, of the steering column slide in relation to the stationary box under cooperation of locking lamella packs. The column slide is box shaped and is formed so solid and rigid that there cannot appear any substantial resilient movement or deformation thereof during locking and releasing, respectively, of the steering column. The steering column slide is slightly narrower than the distance between the sides of the stationary box, one side of the steering column slide is arranged to be pressed directly against the stationary box, whereas the opposite side thereof exposes a slight gap against the box and is locked at this side by means a window lamella which is displacable in the transverse direction in the steering column slide.
