Abstract

The invention discloses a crumple type steering column. The crumple type steering column comprises a column external sleeve; the wall of the column external sleeve comprises a straight sleeve part anda cage part; and the cage part is a hollowed-out structure which is distributed in the circumferential direction of the column external sleeve. The hollowed-out cage part can guarantee the torsionalrigidity of the column external sleeve and can appropriately reduce the axial strength of the column external sleeve; and moreover, the collision energy can be further absorbed to realize a purpose ofsecondary crumpling energy absorption of the column. When an automobile comes into a collision, the energy absorption in the first stage can be realized by using the existing injection-molded shearing block structure; when the column external sleeve moves down to an extreme position, the cage part can be further crumpled in the axial direction and absorb energy under an effect of collision forceso that two-stage energy absorption is realized; and therefore, the acting time of the collision force on a human body is prolonged and the safety of a driver is guaranteed. The invention further discloses an automobile including the crumple type steering column

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automobile steering systems, in particular to a collapsible steering column and an automobile. Background technique [0002] When a car collides, in order to absorb part of the collision energy, an injection-molded shear block is generally fixed on the steering column mounting bracket, see figure 1 and figure 2 In the prior art, the injection molding shear block 03 is fixedly connected to the pipe string mounting bracket 01 through the injection molding process, the pipe string mounting bracket 01 is welded together with the pipe string outer sleeve 02, and the center of the injection molding shear block 03 has a long hole , and the mounting bolts pass through the elongated holes to connect the column assembly with the instrument panel beam bracket. When the car collides, the injection molding shear block 03 remains fixed, and the column mounting bracket 01 and the column outer sleeve 02 move down rela...
