A motion control assembly for a steering column assembly includes a rake bracket having a first leg and a second leg. Also included is a clamping mechanism intersecting the upper jacket and positioned on the first leg of the rake bracket, the on-center, single-sided clamping mechanism moveable between a clamped condition and an unclamped condition, the clamped condition securing a lower jacket against telescoping movement relative to an upper jacket. Further included is a mechanical fastener extending through the second leg of the rake bracket and at least partially through the lower jacket and operatively coupled to the lower jacket.

A steering device includes a steering column for supporting a steering shaft coupled to a steering wheel; an upper bracket fixed to a vehicle body and supports the steering column; and two lower brackets independently fixed to the vehicle body on both sides of the steering column to support the steering column in such a manner that allows the steering column to sway in a vertical direction. The lower brackets each includes a fixed portion facing the vehicle body and disposed on an outside of the steering column in a vehicle width direction, a pivot portion facing the steering column and having an attachment hole into which a pin member for coupling the steering column to the lower bracket is inserted, and a pair of rib portions each connected to the fixed portion and the pivot portion by a bent portion shaped into a bent plate.

A steering column assembly for a vehicle comprising a shroud comprising an axially movable upper part and an axially fixed lower part, the upper and lower parts moving telescopically to provide adjustment for reach of the steering column assembly; a steering shaft which is supported by the shroud, a pivot which connects a part of the lower part to a fixed part of the vehicle, a clamp mechanism which releasably fixes the upper and lower shroud parts in position relative to one another and which also fixes the shroud in position relative to a further fixed part of the vehicle, a mounting bracket, fixed relative to the vehicle, a sprung support assembly which includes at least one guide element that has an outer surface that engages a complimentary shaped guide track of the mounting bracket, characterised in that the sprung support assembly is fixed in position to the upper shroud part and bears upon the mounting bracket such that the sprung support assembly provides a reaction force that at least partially supports the shroud when the clamp mechanism is released.

Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for providing context specific schema files that allow an automated assistant to broker human-to-computer dialogs between a user and an application that is separate from the automated assistant. The context specific schema file can provide the automated assistant with sufficient data to be responsive to user queries without necessarily communicating with a remote device, such as a server. Multiple different context specific schema files can be made available to the automated assistant according to a context in which a user is interacting with the automated assistant. In this way, latency otherwise exhibited by the automated assistant can be mitigated by providing the automated assistant with the information needed to respond to a user without continually retrieving the information over a network.

A friction plate for a vehicle steering system is provided. The friction plate includes a plate body defining a slot for receiving a rake bolt therethrough, the plate body having a planar side. The friction plate also includes a plurality of protrusions extending from the plate body to define a non-planar region of the friction plate.

In a steering device according to an aspect of the present disclosure, a holding portion of a driven cam that is held in a tilt guide hole includes a lock contact portion that faces one side in a bolt circumferential direction and comes into contact with an inner peripheral edge of the tilt guide hole in a locked state to restrict the driven cam from rotating toward the one side in the bolt circumferential direction with respect to a rear side plate portion and a release contact portion that faces the other side in the bolt circumferential direction and comes into contact with the inner peripheral edge of the tilt guide hole in an unlocked state to restrict the driven cam from rotating toward the other side in the bolt circumferential direction with respect to the rear side plate portion.
