Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03097429A1] The invention relates to a dual-linkage assembly for the articulated connection of guide elements, preferably a motor vehicle steering linkage comprising a common linking part. According to the invention, each of the two links has a link housing that is connected to a respective guide element and a bearing shell that is accommodated in the housing and receives a rotatable and pivotable journal part that is coupled in a fixed manner to the common linking part. According to a first embodiment of the invention, a journal part (26) of a link (4) has an opening that runs along the longitudinal axis (24) of said journal part and through which a screw bolt region (23) of the journal part (17) of the other link (5) engages, a retaining nut (29) being located on the free end of the screw bolt region (23) facing away from the journal part (17) of the other link (5). According to another variant, both journal parts (26) of each link (4, 5) have a respective opening (24) that runs along the longitudinal axis of the journal part and through which openings a screw bolt (31) with a widened head region engages, said screw bolt having a detachable retaining nut (29) connected to the free end facing away from the head region (32). The disclosed variants have the advantage that the individual links of the dual-linkage assembly are simply mounted and can be easily replaced.
