A tilt or rake adjustable steering column (10) having a first or tilt lever locking mechanism (18) and a second locking mechanism (29) separate from the first locking mechanism. The second locking mechanism has a pivotable eccentric cam or locking wedge (30) that engages a fixed member (16) to hold the adjustable steering column in the event the first locking mechanisms fails. The tilt lever locking mechanism (18) is linked by a spring (26) to the second locking mechanism so that movement of the tilt lever locking mechanism (18) from a locked position to an unlocked position moves the pivotable eccentric cam (30) from an engaged position to a non-engaged position.

La présente invention concerne une colonne de direction (10) inclinable comprenant un premier mécanisme de blocage (18) de levier inclinable et un second mécanisme de blocage (29) séparé du premier mécanisme de blocage. Le second mécanisme de blocage présente une came excentrique pivotante, ou coin de blocage (30), s'engrénant avec un élément fixe (16) de manière à maintenir la colonne de direction réglable au cas ou le premier mécanisme de blocage tombe en panne. Le mécanisme de blocage (18) est relié par un ressort (26) au second mécanisme de blocage de telle sorte que le déplacement du mécanisme de blocage (18) depuis une position bloquée vers une position débloquée, déplace la came excentrique (30) depuis une position engrenée vers une position non engrenée.
