Abstract
In a tilt steering system, rockable teeth engage with or disengage from fixed teeth as a tilt lever is rotated. At the same time, a tilt bolt and a tilt nut are tightened or loosened. When the teeth engage each other, the tilt bolt and the tilt nut are tightened so that a fixed bracket is pressed against both sides of a vertically shifting bracket.
