Abstract
The present invention relates to a steering column for a vehicle. The steering column of a vehicle includes: an adjusting bolt that passes through tilting guide holes having slot shapes and are formed on opposite sides of a plate bracket, and telescoping guide holes having slot shapes and are formed on opposite sides of a distance bracket; and an impact absorbing member having a hollow pipe shape into which the adjusting bolt is inserted therein, and having tilting impact absorbing parts, which protrude on an outer peripheral surface thereof that are supported by opposite lengthwise ends of the tilting guide hole, and telescoping impact absorbing parts, which protrude on the outer peripheral surface thereof that are supported by opposite lengthwise ends of the telescoping guide hole. The steering column for a vehicle can allow an impact absorbing member no absorb an impact that is generated when an adjusting bolt collides with a tilting guide hole or a telescoping guide hole during a tilting or telescoping operation, thereby improving the operational feeling and reducing operational noise.
