Abstract

Disclosed herein is an apparatus for tilting a steering column, capable of smoothly guiding tooth-on-tooth between a moving gear moved along with a tilt shaft when an operating lever is operated such that a steering column tilts up and down, and a fixing gear fixed to a vehicle body. Consequently, it is possible to resolve faulty operation and prevent the emotional quality of product from deteriorating.
