A universal joint assembly includes a yoke including a serration hole to receive an end portion of a steering column and a bolt-hole to receive a bolt which is used to restrict the steering column received in the serration hole, and a misassembly prevention member coupled to the yoke and elastically movable from a first position in which the bolt-hole is at least partially blocked to a second position in which the bolt-hole is opened, thereby preventing a misassembly of the steering column and improving safety and reliability of the universal joint assembly.

A securing device for temporarily limiting movement of a universal joint of a steering column may include a locking element that extends in a longitudinal direction and has a free front end at a front as seen in the longitudinal direction. A handling means may be fitted at a rear of the locking element as seen in the longitudinal direction. The locking element may have a blocking body, and first and second positioning elements that are disposed on opposite sides of the blocking body and extend in the longitudinal direction adjacent to the blocking body. The positioning elements may be resilient relative to the blocking body in a transverse direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction. The positioning elements help simplify installation and improve protection against damage.

A door panel includes a front surface panel, a side surface panel bent from a side of the front surface panel, an upper surface panel bent from a top of the front surface panel and provided above the side surface panel, a gap formed between the upper end of the side surface panel and the side end of the upper surface panel, and a decoration piece configured to fill the gap. The decoration piece includes an exposed portion configured to compensate for a difference in height between the upper end of the side surface panel and the upper surface panel, a side surface configured to contact the inner surface of the side surface panel, and a front surface configured to contact the inner surface of the front surface panel.

An insert assembly inserted in a gap region provided in a panel to fill the gap region, the insert assembly including a body unit covering the gap region not to be exposed to the outside, an insert unit extended from the body unit and inserted in the gap region, and a hook unit extended a preset distance from the insert unit toward the body unit, the hook unit comprising one end connected to the insert unit and the other end provided as a free end, wherein the body unit, the insert unit and the hook unit are integrally formed with each other as one body.

A joint assembly for a vehicle includes an outer race, a fitting, a cap and a stop member. The fitting is disposed in the outer race. The fitting is configured to be axially movable and rotationally fixed relative to the outer race. The cap is connected to the outer race. The stop member is removably received by the cap. The stop member substantially prevents axial movement of the fitting in a direction toward the cap.

A geared motor has an electric motor with an output shaft and a gear mechanism, the electric motor and the gear mechanism being adapted to one another such that a bearing plate of the electric motor can be fastened directly to an input shaft side of a housing of the gear mechanism. A coupling thread, which surrounds the output shaft for producing a threaded connection, is provided for fastening the bearing plate to the input shaft side. To that end, a securing section is provided which, in the fastened state, prevents a relative rotation of the housing of the gear mechanism with respect to the bearing plate in a release direction. The securing section is fastened to the bearing plate or to the gear mechanism housing by way of a fastening screw which is screwed into the bearing plate or the gear mechanism housing in a manner which is oriented in the tangential direction of the coupling thread.

A securing device for temporarily limiting movement of a universal joint of a steering column may include a locking element that extends in a longitudinal direction and has a free front end at a front as seen in the longitudinal direction. A handling means may be fitted at a rear of the locking element as seen in the longitudinal direction. The locking element may have a blocking body, and first and second positioning elements that are disposed on opposite sides of the blocking body and extend in the longitudinal direction adjacent to the blocking body. The positioning elements may be resilient relative to the blocking body in a transverse direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction. The positioning elements help simplify installation and improve protection against damage.

The decoration piece includes an exposed portion configured to compensate for a difference in height between the upper end of the side surface panel and the upper surface panel, a side surface configured to contact the inner surface of the side surface panel, and a front surface configured to contact the inner surface of the front surface panel.

Provided is a fixed type constant velocity universal joint, including: an outer joint member (10) having a cup-shape; and an inner joint member (20), which is received in the outer joint member (10), and is configured to transmit torque between the inner joint member (20) and the outer joint member (10) through intermediation of balls (30) while allowing angular displacement. The fixed type constant velocity universal joint has a shaft (50) extending from the inner joint member (20). The shaft (50) includes a large-diameter portion (51), which is formed integrally with the shaft (50), and interferes with the balls (30) when the shaft (50) forms an operating angle, which is larger than a maximum operating angle, with respect to the outer joint member (10).
