Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a steering column assembly that includes a mounting bracket with a first arm and a second arm, a steering column, and a locking device. This device is designed to be in a locking or unlocking state, allowing for selective tilt motion of the supporting housing and steering column by applying or removing clamping force. The locking device features a tilting bolt connected to a lever, which rotates between the locking and unlocking states, along with first and second locking units that apply clamping force to the arms.
Another significant patent is a collapsible steering column assembly. This assembly consists of a mounting bracket with a pair of arms fixed to a vehicle body, a supporting housing that tilts about the bracket, and a steering column that can undergo tilt motion. The locking device in this assembly allows for both telescopic and tilt motion by selectively applying clamping force to the arms. The design includes an outer jacket, an inner jacket, and a tolerance ring that facilitates the telescopic motion in the unlocking state and allows for impact collapse in the locking state.
