Summary: | The column comprises a housing (1) and a cover tube (2) which extends into the passenger accommodation and contains a shortenable steering shaft for the steering wheel. The passenger end of the cover tube has weaknesses around its edge and a coaxial cone (4) whose smallest outer diameter is smaller or equal to the inner diameter of the tube, which it faces. The weaknesses preferably comprise notches (3). The outwardly directed surface of the cone may continually widen along a concavely cross-section line from the smallest outer diameter with a coaxial surface to a large outer diameter with a virtually radially extending surface. |
