Patent ID: 7258364

Claim:
A transmission mechanism ( 20 ) of a progressive gear ( 1 ), of a steering gear of a vehicle, between a driving shaft ( 10 ) with an axis (X) and a driven shaft ( 30 ), characterized by a driving lever ( 11 ) connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the driving shaft ( 10 ), as well as two links ( 21 ) each having a first and a second end, the first end of each of the links ( 21 ) being connected at spaced locations by joints ( 22 ) to the driving lever ( 11 ), the second ends of each of the links ( 21 ) being connected at spaced locations to a coupler ( 23 ), coupler ( 23 ) being connected to an output lever ( 31 ) which can be connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the driven shaft ( 30 ) and which is connected by an offset (Ry) to the axis (Y) of the driven shaft ( 30 ) at the coupler ( 23 ) wherein the axes (X, Y) of the driving shaft ( 10 ) and the driven shaft ( 30 ) are essentially in parallel and show an offset to each other and wherein all connections that are not rotationally fixed enable pivoting movements within a plane essentially transverse to the axes (X, Y) of the driving shaft ( 10 ) and the driven shaft ( 30 ).
