Steering column assembly with adapter swedge

A steering assembly including a motor assembly, a worm assembly, and a coupler assembly is provided. The worm assembly includes a worm member defining a central axis and having first and second ends.The coupler assembly may include an adapter having a first wall defining a through-hole sized to receive a portion of the first end therein. The coupler assembly may operatively connect the motor assembly and the worm assembly. The worm member and the adapter may be arranged with one another such that pressing a swedge tool against a face of the worm member in a direction substantially parallel with the central axis deforms the first end to overlap a portion of the worm member onto a portion of the adapter adjacent the through-hole to secure the worm member and adapter to one another and to axially retain the worm member in a position relative to the central axis. 提供了一种包括马达组件、蜗杆组件和联接器组件的转向组件。蜗杆组件包括限定中心轴线并具有第一端和第二端的蜗杆构件。联接器组件可以包括具有第一壁的适配器，该第一壁限定有通孔，该通孔的尺寸被设置为将第一端的一部分接纳在其中。联接器组件可以可操作地连接马达组件和蜗杆组件。蜗杆构件和适配器可以彼此布置成，使得沿基
