DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the following description of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear. Even if the terms are the same, it is to be noted that when the portions to be displayed differ, the reference signs do not coincide.
The terms to be described below are terms set in consideration of functions in the present invention, and may be changed according to a user's intention or custom such as an experimenter and a measurer, and the definitions should be made based on the contents throughout the present specification.
3 is a perspective view of a tie rod coupling structure according to the present invention. A feature of the present invention is that one clamp is used to join the
In the conventional tie rod coupling structure shown in FIG. 2, since the tie rod is rotated to adjust the length, it has been described that both sides of the tie rod should be adjusted. The present invention, on the other hand, proposes a new type of coupling structure capable of adjusting the length without rotating the
In addition, one of the important objects of the invention requires a form in which the tie rods are bent as shown in FIG. 3 to prevent interference with the structure of the underside of the vehicle as described in the background art. However, in the way of adjusting the length by rotating the tie rod as in the present, it is not possible to apply such a curved tie rod. Accordingly, the present invention provides a new structure that enables the length adjustment without rotating the tie rod itself.
As an embodiment for implementing this, Figure 4 is an exploded perspective view of the adjustment portion of the tie rod coupling structure according to the present invention, Figure 5 shows a cross-sectional view of the adjustment portion of the tie rod coupling structure according to the present invention.
The
As used herein, the term "fastening hole" means any shape to which a protruding member can be inserted, and is not limited to a hole shape.

The first
As shown in FIG. 4, the adjusting pipe includes a catch portion having a polygonal cross section such as a hexagon, which can be fixed through a spatter, and a thread portion formed with a thread to adjust the length.
However, in order to increase the tightening force of the
The core of the present invention, unlike the conventional tie rod coupling structure in FIG. 2, aims to adjust the length formed by the tie rod and the ball joint assembly by rotating the
After adjusting to the desired length, it is necessary to fix the adjusting
However, in order to increase the force that the
In order to further enhance this effect, the length of the cutout 19 is preferably formed longer than the length of the
It is preferable that one or more such cutouts 19 are provided, and two to four are preferably provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction, but the number thereof does not limit the scope of the present invention.
Hereinafter, the fixing
