Abstract
The disclosure relates to a steer-by-wire system for a motor vehicle including a steering rod, an electric servo unit configured to move the steering rod, and a sliding bearing which radially supports the steering rod in a housing. The housing, the sliding bearing, and the steering rod have complementary geometries whereby the steering rod is prevented from rotating. The sliding bearing includes multiple segments in the circumferential direction, at least one segment of the multiple segments is a sliding bearing location for the radial support. At least one segment of the multiple segments is a first supporting element configured to prevent rotation in one direction of rotation. At least one segment of the multiple segments is a second supporting element configured to prevent rotation in the opposite direction of rotation.
