The worm shaft bearing 257 coupled to the end portion of the worm shaft 254 and the opposite end thereof at the portion connected to the motor shaft 305 has a ball coupled between the inner ring and the outer ring to support rotation of the worm shaft 254.

The reducer assists the driver's steering force by rotating the steering shaft 106 while the worm 152 and the worm wheel 156 are interlocked by the driving force of the motor 146. The motor shaft 305 is driven when the motor 146 is driven. The worm shaft bearing 257 is fastened to both ends of the worm shaft 254 interlocked with each other to support rotation of the worm shaft 254. The worm wheel 156 and the worm 152 interlocked with the steering shaft 105 are gear housings ( 260).

The worm shaft bearing 257 is mounted inside the gear housing 260 and supports the rotation of the worm shaft 254 at both ends of the worm shaft 254 and reduces the rotational resistance of the worm shaft 254. The worm shaft 254 and the motor shaft 305 is a coupling portion between the shaft and the shaft via the motor boss and the plug bolt 210, the manufacturing error and the assembly error accumulates, so that the amount of engagement of the bearing is increased, which causes the worm shaft 254 Rotational resistance is increased.

The outer circumferential surface of the dustproof member 320 is provided.

Damper 330 is coupled between the inner surface of the gear housing 260 and the end of the worm shaft 254 in a hollow shape to absorb the vibration and noise transmitted through the worm shaft 254, such a damper 330 is supported The inner surface of the gear housing 260 is provided with a locking portion 310 protruding in the axial direction so that it can be fixed, one side of the damper 330 is inserted and fixed to the locking portion 310 and the damper 330 The other side of the worm shaft 254 is inserted into and fixed to the opposite end of the motor shaft 305 connecting portion.

Accordingly, both sides of the damper 330 are supported by the gear housing 260 and the worm shaft 254 to absorb vibrations and noises transmitted through the worm shaft 254 while elastically deforming and expanding.

In addition, the anti-vibration member 320 provided at one end or both ends of the worm shaft 254 to which the worm shaft bearing 257 is coupled is the end portion of the worm shaft 254 made of any one or more of a dustproof material such as Teflon, silicone, urethane, and rubber. The coating is formed on the outer circumferential surface thereof to absorb vibrations and noises transmitted through the worm shaft 254.

Such a reducer may further include a damper housing 343, a housing fixing member 350, a damper fixing member 350, and the like as the second embodiment of the present invention illustrated in FIG. 4.

The damper housing 343 is inserted to surround the outer surface of the damper 330 and is coupled to the inside of the gear housing 260, and the housing fixing member 350 and the damper 330 to prevent the damper housing 343 from being separated. Damper fixing member 350 to prevent separation is coupled to the inner surface of the gear housing 260 at the outside of the damper housing 343 and the damper 330, respectively.

That is, the housing fixing member 350 and the damper fixing member 350 are coupled to grooves formed in the gear housing 260 on both sides of the damper housing 343 in the state where the damper 330 is inserted into the damper housing 343. 343 and the damper 330 are no longer elastic deformation away from the axial direction on the worm shaft 254, but only close to the elastic deformation.

Here, the fixing member 350 is formed in an annular shape with one side cut, a snap ring or washer coupled to the groove of the gear housing 260 with an elastic force in the radial direction may be used.

In addition, the damper 330 may include a damper support having a large diameter portion 333 supported by the damper fixing member 350 and a small diameter portion 335 having a reduced diameter formed from the large diameter portion 333, and the small diameter portion 335. And an elastic body 340 inserted into the damper support member and providing the elastic force between the damper housing 343 and one or more damping protrusions protruding toward the damper housing 343. 345.

Here, the damping protrusion 345 may protrude toward the damper housing 343 to have a circumferential shape. By providing the damping protrusion 345, the damping protrusion 345 may absorb vibrations and noises transmitted at various sizes.

That is, when the load transmitted is small, the load is supported by the elastic force of the damping protrusion 345, and when a large load is momentarily transferred, the damping protrusion 345 and the elastic body 340 simultaneously support the load, thereby causing rattle noise. It is to prevent.

This shows a load-displacement curve in which the displacement of the damping protrusion 345 increases to approximately S 1 until the load transmitted as shown in FIG. 7 is approximately F 1. It shows the damping characteristic that absorbs the load and causes the load-displacement curve to increase rapidly.

Therefore, even if the external force transmitted through the steering shaft and the worm wheel on the road surface and the load generated during the operation of the worm and the worm wheel are transmitted in various forms having a range of small value to large value, various types of rattles can be generated in the reducer by absorbing it It will reduce the noise.

Here, the damper 330 or the elastic body 340 is required to be formed of a material having a predetermined bending and rigidity as well as low elasticity by heat, as well as wear resistance and low friction, polyacetal (POM), polyamide (PA) , Polycarbonate (PC), polyimide (PI), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), etc., or formed of engineering plastics such as natural rubber (NR (Natural Rubber), NBR (Nitrile) to have weatherability and elasticity Butadiene Rubber (CR), Chloroprene Rubber (CR), Ethylene Propylene Terpolymer (EPDM), Fluoro Elastomer (FPM), Styrene Butadine Rubber (SBR), Chrorosulphonated Polyethylene (CSM), Silicon, etc.
