본 발명은 너클 브라켓에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 쇽업소버를 차륜 측에 연결하는 데에 사용되는 너클 브라켓에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a knuckle bracket, and more particularly to a knuckle bracket used to connect the shock absorber to the wheel side.

일반적으로 자동차의 현가장치는 코일스프링과 쇽업소버를 이용하여 차체와 차륜의 상하 방향 운동을 조절하여 편안한 승차감을 확보하고 상하 이외의 방향으로는 적절한 강성에 의해 조정안정성을 유지해주는 역할을 한다.In general, the suspension device of a vehicle uses a coil spring and a shock absorber to adjust the up and down movement of the vehicle body and the wheel to secure a comfortable ride, and to maintain adjustment stability by appropriate stiffness in directions other than up and down.

쇽업소버는 일단이 차체와 연결되며, 타단이 차륜과 연결되어 노면으로부터 전달되는 충격을 흡수 완충한다. 맥퍼슨식 쇽업소버의 경우, 상단이 차체와 연결 된 쇽업소버의 하단에는 차륜과의 결합을 위한 너클 브라켓이 설치되며, 너클 브라켓은 차륜에 연결된 너클 아암에 결합된다.The shock absorber has one end connected to the vehicle body and the other end connected to the wheel to absorb and cushion the shock transmitted from the road surface. In the case of the McPherson shock absorber, a knuckle bracket is installed at the bottom of the shock absorber, the upper end of which is connected to the vehicle body, and the knuckle bracket is coupled to the knuckle arm connected to the wheel.

일반적으로 너클 브라켓은, 쇽업소버의 외통의 하단 외주면에 맞대어져서 고정되는 본체부와, 이 본체부의 양측에서 직경방향 외측으로 향하게 돌출된 좌우 한쌍의 플랜지부를 포함한다.In general, the knuckle bracket includes a main body portion which is fixed to a lower outer peripheral surface of the outer cylinder of the shock absorber, and a pair of left and right flange portions protruding radially outward from both sides of the main body portion.

플랜지부에는 너클 아암과 볼트 체결하기 위한 체결공이 형성되어 있으며, 너클 아암에도 플랜지부와 볼트 체결하기 위한 체결공이 형성되어 있다. 너클 브라켓은 플랜지부의 사이에 너클 아암을 개재하여 상기한 체결공들에 볼트를 삽입하고 볼트의 말단부에 너트를 끼워 조임으로써 너클 아암과 결합된다.A fastening hole for fastening the bolt with the knuckle arm is formed in the flange portion, and a fastening hole for fastening the bolt with the flange portion is formed in the knuckle arm. The knuckle bracket is engaged with the knuckle arm by inserting a bolt through the knuckle arm between the flange portion and inserting a bolt and tightening a nut at the end of the bolt.

이러한 너클 브라켓에서 플랜지부의 강성을 보강할 필요가 있는데, 종래에는 플랜지부의 강성을 보강하기 위해 양측의 플랜지부들의 사이에 단면 ㄷ자형의 별도의 보강 부재를 설치하였다. 그러나, 플랜지부들 사이에 별도의 보강 부재를 설치하게 되면 재료비 및 가공비가 증가하고 조립작업이 번거로운 문제점이 있다.In this knuckle bracket, it is necessary to reinforce the rigidity of the flange portion. In the related art, in order to reinforce the rigidity of the flange portion, a separate reinforcement member having a cross-section c-shaped is provided between the flange portions on both sides. However, if a separate reinforcing member is installed between the flanges, there is a problem in that the material cost and processing cost increase and the assembling work is cumbersome.

따라서, 본 발명은, 이러한 종래기술의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로서, 양측의 플랜지부들 사이에 별도의 보강 부재를 설치하지 않고도 플랜지부의 강성을 보강할 수 있도록 구성된 너클 브라켓을 제공하는 것을 그 목적으로 한다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a knuckle bracket configured to solve the problems of the prior art and configured to reinforce the rigidity of the flange portion without installing a separate reinforcing member between the flange portions on both sides thereof. It is done.
