ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a tilt device for a vehicular steering column, which permits a lock slider cooperating with an operating lever to regulate pivoting of a movable gear by simplifying the engagement structure between the movable gear and a fixed gear to reduce the number of parts and enhance assembling ability, thereby reducing manufacturing cost. The tilt device of the invention also minimizes the operating force of the operating lever while elevating the coupling force between the operating lever and a lock slider so as to improve convenience of users.
