Zusammenfassung:When a steering column contracts in order to absorb shock, interference between a column cover and a lock apparatus is suppressed, and a shock-absorbing stroke of the steering column is obtained. When a steering column 14 contracts in order to absorb shock as a result of an input load equal to or greater than a predetermined value, a column cover 10 that covers a rear end side of steering column 14, performs a stroke, together with a movable side region, relative to an outer tube 18 (a fixed side region) of steering column 14, to which is fixed a lock apparatus 12. At this time, a side wall portion 10S of column cover 10, which is positioned further to a vehicle rear than lock apparatus 12, enters between lock apparatus 12 and outer tube 18 of steering column 14, thereby suppressing interference between column cover 10 and lock apparatus 12.
