However, as mentioned above, there are roughly two types of tilt handles, and since the fulcrum points are different, the movements when tilting are different, and there is a risk of interference with the instrument panel (A) body or concealment member. There are other types of specifications, such as those with concealment means provided on the instrument panel (A), those provided on the column cover (2o), and those provided on both, and even if the vehicle model specifications differ, the column cover
When the shapes of (2o) are almost the same, they have to be set as separate parts due to the difference in concealment means, and because parts cannot be shared, manufacturing and management costs for parts increase, and it is difficult to reduce costs. There was a problem that it was hindering.
