Abstract
A steering column for a motor vehicle includes a steering shaft rotatably mounted in a steering column housing about a longitudinal axis, and a rotation limiter. The rotation limiter has a stop disk which is connected to the steering shaft to transmit torque. The stop disk includes at least one recess extending in the circumferential direction, such that the steering shaft is coupled to a lifting mechanism, with a stop pin, which is mounted displaceably in the direction of the longitudinal axis and non-displaceably in the circumferential direction and engages with the recess depending on the rotational angle of the steering shaft such that, when the permitted rotational angle of the steering shaft is reached, the stop pin strikes against a boundary of the recess, the boundary lying in the circumferential direction, and prevents further rotation in the same direction of rotation.
