Abstract

A steering column for a steer-by-wire steering system include a steering shaft that is connectable to a steering wheel and is received in an inner steering column tube such that the steering shaft is rotatable about a longitudinal axis. An outer steering column tube may receive the inner tube such that the inner tube can be displaced along the longitudinal axis. The outer tube may be connectable to a vehicle chassis. The steering column may also include a feedback actuator having an electric motor that drives the steering shaft via a drive component that is connected to the steering shaft for the transmission of torque. The drive component may have a recess with a maximum inscribed diameter that is greater than an external diameter of the inner tube, and the recess may be disposed on a side of the drive component that faces the inner tube.
