Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a structure for preventing a clearance of a steering column for a vehicle.
Generally, the automobile has a steering column capable of adjusting the height of the steering wheel and the distance after the driver according to the driver's physical condition or driving posture.
Such a steering column for an automobile has a tilt function that allows the driver to adjust and adjust the steering wheel at a comfortable angle by operating a tilt lever at a predetermined angle, To extend or retract from the steering shaft to widen the driver's seat space.
The telescopic function of the vehicle as described above has an effect that the driver can accurately position the steering wheel at a position required by the driver in accordance with the body condition or the driving posture of the driver for more comfortable and safe driving.
Here, the automotive telescopic column includes a hollow outer member and an inner member inserted in the hollow outer member and movable in the axial direction.
The hollow outer member and the inner member of the telescopic column for an automobile are spaced apart due to the frequent implementation of the telescopic function. Therefore, in order to prevent such a clearance, a bushing tube is interposed between the hollow outer member and the inner member, a clearance prevention cam is mounted on a tilt bolt rotated together with the tilt lever, When the lever is rotated, the clearance prevention cam is rotated together to press the bushing tube to prevent the clearance.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a structure for preventing clearance of a steering column for a vehicle that can prevent a clearance between an inner member and a hollow outer member through a bushing tube with a small force.
In order to achieve the above object, in order to perform the telescopic function by selectively driving the tilt lever equipped with the tilt bolt, the structure for preventing the clearance of the steering column of the vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a hollow outer member, An outer member opening portion for opening a portion of the outer member, wherein the outer member opening portion includes an inner member movably inserted in the axial direction; A restraining cam fixed to the tilt bolt and having first and second thickness portions placed in the outer member opening portion; And a bushing tube interposed between the outer member and the inner member, the bushing tube having a portion in contact with the clearance prevention cam, the bushing tube having an incision cut at both ends thereof.
The cutout may have a shape that is inclined with respect to the radial direction of the bushing tube.
And a lubricant groove for receiving lubricant may be formed on the surface of the clearance prevention cam.
The clearance prevention cam may be made of a steel material or may be coated with a steel material.
And a load supporting plate larger than the width of the clearance prevention cap may be further provided between the clearance prevention cam and the bushing tube.
The first portion of the inner member corresponding to the clearance prevention cam may have a depressed shape.
For example, the inner member may have a "D" shape whose cross section is an English alphabet, and a flat surface of the "D" shape may correspond to the first portion.
As another example, the upper and lower portions of the inner member may have a flattened shape, respectively, and the upper portion or the lower portion may correspond to the first portion.
As another example, the inner member may have a curved shape in which the upper and lower portions are recessed, respectively, and the upper portion or the lower portion may correspond to the first portion.
As another example, the upper and lower portions of the inner member may each have a shape curved in a free-form surface, and the upper portion or the lower portion may correspond to the first portion.
The portion of the bushing tube corresponding to the clearance prevention cam may have a relatively large thickness as compared with other portions.
A friction reduction groove or a friction reduction projection may be formed in a portion of the bushing tube corresponding to the clearance prevention cap.
As described above, the structure for preventing clearance of the steering column for a vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention can have the following effects.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, since the hollow outer member opening portion, the anti-jamming cam, and the bushing tube are provided, and the incision portion is provided in the bushing tube, the rotation of the tilt lever of the small force facilitates the bushing tube through the incision portion And the clearance between the inner member and the outer member through the bushing tube can be prevented with a small force.
