Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of particularly tight installation spaces it is only difficult to detect the optical markings, so assembly in these cases becomes more difficult

Embodiment Construction

[0048] Assignment to shaft member 1 of the steering column figure 1 Shown section shows that when the motor vehicle steering device is assembled, by means of the steering clutch 2 ( figure 2 ) The sleeve-shaped intermediate piece 21 carried by ) is connected to the end 11 of the steering clutch. The shaft component 1 has at its end 11 a spline shaft profile 12 which has the same tooth pitch and tooth depth and tooth width, which makes it relatively simple to manufacture the shaft component 1 . The spline shaft profile 12 is formed by teeth 5 and grooves 6 , which each have a conical extent in the height direction (here thickness direction) and taper towards the end 11 of the steering shaft component 1 . On the inside, the intermediate part 21 likewise has a splined shaft profile that is formed negatively with respect to the splined shaft profile 12 of the shaft component 1 . The splined shaft profile of the intermediate part is likewise conical in height with the same cone ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a motor vehicle steering system comprising a steering spindle having several spindle components (1, 2) that are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. One end (11) of a spindle component (1) has a spline shaft profile (12) oriented in an axial direction on the outer periphery, and is therewith inserted into a sleeve-shaped intermediate piece (21), which in the longitudinal direction of the steering spindle is arranged on the other adjacent spindle component (2), and which on the inner periphery has a spline shaft profile (12) that is form-negative with respect to the spline shaft profile (12) of the spindle component (1) such that the spindle component (1) is plug-connected with the intermediate piece (21). In order that two steering spindle components (1, 2), in particular a spindle component (1) on the motor-compartment side, and the subsequent steering coupling (2) can be connected to one another with little effort even with optical inaccessibility, a circumferential guide contour (13) pointing toward the intermediate piece (21) is formed on the spindle component (1), according to the invention, which guide contour is located upstream of the spline shaft profile (12) toward the intermediate piece (21), and which is perforated by grooves (6) of the spline shaft profile (12) thus forming convex guide segments (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motor vehicle steering device, an assembly aid for a motor vehicle steering device and an assembly method. Background technique [0002] In the encapsulation environment consisting of exhaust system, catalytic converter, engine and lines, the hitherto implemented direct screwing of steering shaft components to one another in the engine compartment has only been possible with great effort. In this case, one shaft component is screwed to the other shaft component, which is also referred to as a steering clutch if it is arranged at the end of the steering shaft branch, transversely to the direction of the steering shaft. This results in a very poor accessibility of the components to be connected when the vehicle has a front engine and when optimizing the accessibility for different engine variants and steering systems, for example a left-hand drive model and a right-hand drive model, the number of variants arranged Dramatic inc...
