Abstract
A steering lock for selectively inhibiting rotation of a rotary steering member having a rib includes a lockbolt movable along a first axis between a steering member-locking position, in which a distal tip of the lockbolt is positioned in interference with the rib, and a steering member-unlocking position, in which the distal tip of the lockbolt is positioned out of interference with the rib. A shuttle is movable between a non-blocking position, in which the shuttle does not obstruct movement of the lockbolt from the steering member-locking position to the steering member-unlocking position, and a blocking position, in which the shuttle obstructs movement of the lockbolt out of the steering member-locking position. An actuator is coupled to the shuttle and operable to drive the lockbolt to the steering member-locking position by moving the shuttle from the non-blocking position to the blocking position. The lockbolt is unbiased along the first axis.
