Gear element of a dynamic spline or circular spline type for a tension-shaft gear, e.g. in a vehicle's steering system, has a gear element with a sliding surface made to slide on a two-way sliding surface

摘要

A gear element (2) has a sliding surface (8) that serves to slide on a two-way sliding surface. Feeder grooves (10,14,16) for a lubricant are made in the sliding surface. A tension-shaft gear contains the gear element. There is also a camshaft adjuster and a steering thrust aid. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) A tension-shaft gear; (2) A camshaft adjuster with a tension-shaft gear; (3) A steering-thrust aid for a vehicle's steering system with a tension-shaft gear.
