Abstract
A longitudinally adjustable steering shaft for a vehicle has an inner shaft received in an outer shaft to be displaceable coaxially and in the direction of a rotational axis. The two shafts have interlocking profiles in cross section for transmitting torques. A profile sleeve on which the outer shaft is telescopically arranged is arranged on the inner shaft part. The profile sleeve in a first end region surrounds a free end of the inner shaft part in the mounted state and has a radially inwardly protruding stop for abutment against an end face of the inner shaft in one axial direction and an end region of the inner shaft has a radially outwardly protruding projection for abutment of the profile sleeve in an opposite axial direction. The profile sleeve includes a radially inwardly protruding stop with reference to a simplified mounting in a first end region.
