Abstract
A steering column assembly is disclosed that comprises: a housing having outer, intermediate and inner elongate, telescopically mounted housing portions movable relative to one another along an adjustment axis; a steering column rotatably mounted in the inner elongate housing portion and being configured at one end for attachment of a steering member (e.g. a steering wheel); a leadscrew rotatably mounted on the intermediate housing portion and having first and second threaded portions of opposite handedness; a motor for rotating the leadscrew; a first displacement member screw-threadedly mounted to the first threaded portion of the leadscrew and connected to one of the outer and inner elongate housing portions; and a second displacement member screw-threadedly mounted to the second threaded portion of the leadscrew and connected to the other of the outer and inner elongate housing portions; whereby rotation of the leadscrew causes displacement of the first and second displacement members in opposite directions along the adjustment axis.
