Abstract
A device for rapidly interlocking or disengaging for anti-theft purposes, the steering wheel and the steering column of a motor vehicle. The device includes
a base interlocked for rotation with the steering column.
an intermediate connecting piece.
a plate interlocked for rotation with the steering wheel.
first rotational coupling mechanism provided between the base and the connecting piece for rapid coupling uncoupling of the base and the connecting piece together for rotation.
second rotational coupling mechanism provided between the connecting piece and a plate for rapid coupling and decoupling of the connecting piece and the plate together for rotation and
releasable assembly holding mechanism for maintaining the base, the connecting piece and the plate assembled axially, whereby the connecting piece may be readily positioned between the base and the plate (the steering wheel then being coupled for rotation to the steering column) or removed (the steering wheel, then being uncoupled from rotation with the steering column).
