Adjusting mechanism for track rod in motor vehicle's steering system has hinge bolt movable in track rod's longitudinal direction by means of compensating strut installed parallel to track rod

摘要

The track rod(20) as part of a motor vehicle's steering system has a hinge bolt(23) which is movable in the track rod's longitudinal direction. The movement of the hinge bolt is effected by an compensating strut(30) installed parallel to the track rod. The track rod and hinge bolt are materially interconnected by an elastomer component. The track rod compensating strut on its outer end has a quasi-rigid ball head(33) for cardanic movability.
