Patent ID: 8882147

Claim:
A steering column for a motor vehicle comprising: a jacket unit; a steering spindle bearing-supported in said jacket unit so as to be rotatable about a steering spindle longitudinal axis; and a bracket unit to be fixed on the motor vehicle; wherein said jacket unit is held in or on said bracket unit so as to be displaceable in at least one of a parallel direction and a transverse direction with respect to said steering spindle longitudinal axis, said jacket unit being securable in positions differing from one another by a securement mechanism, said securement mechanism including at least one movably supported securement element; wherein said jacket unit is secured in or on said bracket unit in at least one locked position of said securement element; wherein, in a release position of said securement element, said jacket unit is displaceable relative to said bracket unit in at least one of the parallel direction and the transverse direction relative to said steering spindle longitudinal axis; wherein said steering column comprises at least one movably supported stop body cooperating with said securement element directly or indirectly, said stop body being arranged and configured so that: in the release position of said securement element, said stop body is disposed in a first position for delimiting a displaceability of said jacket unit relative to said bracket unit in at least one of the parallel direction and the transverse direction relative to said steering spindle longitudinal axis; and in a locked position of said securement element, said stop body is disposed in at least one second position in which said stop body is out of engagement with said jacket unit.
