Abstract
The invention relates to a contact actuator comprising: a casing (102); a barrel intended to pivot about an axis A1 in relation to the casing (102); a pull knob intended to move between a locking position in which the steering column is locked and an unlocking position in which the steering column is unlocked; and a handle comprising (i) a rod (108) extending along axis A1, the first end of which is inserted into the barrel so as to slide therein, said rod (108) being secured to the barrel such as to rotate therewith about axis A1, and (ii) a head secured to a second end of the rod (108), by means of which the handle is intended to be gripped and manipulated. The casing (102) defines an internal space (302) in which the rod (108) extends and, in said internal space (302), the casing includes a longitudinal groove (304) parallel to axis A1. The rod (108) includes a lug (208) intended to move inside the longitudinal groove (304) when the rod (108) moves between its forward and rearward positions, said longitudinal groove (304) circumferentially blocking the lug (208) of the rod (108) such as to prevent the rotation of the handle about axis A1.
