The speed reducer of the automobile having such a structure controls the driving of the motor by the electronic control unit provided in the vehicle according to the driving condition of the vehicle and the rotating force of the worm shaft by the driving of the motor is added to the turning force of the steering wheel operated by the driver So that the steering operation state of the driver can be maintained smoothly and stably by being transmitted to the steering shaft.
However, in such a conventional vehicle speed reducer, friction between the worm wheel and the worm shaft is maintained by rotating the worm wheel by the rotational force of the worm shaft due to the driving of the motor, and thus the temperature of the worm shaft and the worm wheel is increased. Particularly, As a result, there is a problem that the coupling between the worm shaft and the worm shaft is not normally performed, and the power loss is generated, and the steering assist force can not be stably provided to the driver.
Also, when the worm wheel is inflated due to the frictional heat between the worm shaft and the worm wheel, wear is generated between the worm shaft and the worm wheel, and the durability is disadvantageously deteriorated, and noise is generated when the worm wheel transmits rotational force to the worm wheel.
The present invention has been made in view of the background mentioned above and has a heat dissipating member for dissipating heat of a worm shaft, dissipating frictional heat generated when the worm wheel is rotated by the rotational force of the worm shaft by driving the motor, lowering the temperature of the worm wheel, The worm gear and the worm wheel can be normally engaged with each other, thereby preventing power loss and stably providing a steering assist force to the driver.
In addition, since the frictional heat of the worm and the worm wheel is transferred to the boss, the durability of the worm wheel is improved as the temperature of the worm wheel is lowered, and the noise generated when the rotational force is transmitted from the worm shaft to the worm wheel is prevented, To provide a speed reducer of the present invention.
The objects of the present invention are not limited thereto, and other objects not mentioned may be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.
According to the present invention, a worm wheel is provided inside a gear housing and coupled to a steering shaft on an inner circumferential surface thereof. The worm wheel is formed in a plate shape so as to radiate heat from a worm shaft and a worm shaft, And a heat dissipating member which is rotated by engaging with the steering shaft and is provided with a gear portion protruding from the worm on the surface facing the worm shaft and spaced apart from the worm and maintaining a state of being separated from the worm, .
According to the present invention, a heat dissipating member for dissipating the heat of the worm shaft is provided to dissipate the frictional heat generated when the worm wheel is rotated by the rotational force of the worm shaft by driving the motor, and to prevent the worm wheel from being inflated by lowering the temperature of the worm wheel. And the teeth of the worm and the worm wheel can be normally engaged, thereby preventing the power loss and stably providing the steering assist force to the driver.
Also, since the frictional heat of the worm and the worm wheel is transferred to the boss, the durability of the worm wheel is improved as the temperature of the worm wheel is lowered, and noise is prevented from being generated when transmitting the rotational force from the worm shaft to the worm wheel. .
