[0010] Preferably, the steering column welding assembly is installed on the vehicle body; the steering column welding assembly is an integral support structure.

[0011] Preferably, the cable is installed on the steering column welding assembly; the air spring is driven by the cable to release pressure, and the angle can be freely adjusted through the central axis.

[0012] Preferably, the foot pedal is rotatably installed on the steering column welding assembly; the cable is driven by stepping on the foot pedal.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: After getting on the vehicle, stepping on the foot pedal drives the cable to release the pressure of the air spring, so that the steering column welding assembly can be freely adjusted through the central axis. If no pressure is applied to the steering wheel, the steering wheel automatically returns to the maximum stroke through the air spring pressure, meeting the largest boarding space. The angle of the instrument bracket is adjusted by loosening or tightening the instrument bracket adjustment knob. Compared with manual adjustment, the air spring auxiliary adjustment is added, which is convenient and labor-saving. The instrument is adjusted simultaneously with the steering column, and at the same time, the function of separately adjusting the instrument angle is added, which can be adjusted to the best visible angle of the instrument for personnel of different heights.
