Description
The present invention relates to a rack pinion type steering apparatus. More specifically, by implementing the ball friction to the support member for supporting the sliding of the rack bar from the inside of the rack housing, by implementing the friction friction, the steering wheel smoothes the steering feeling by minimizing the friction force due to the linear movement of the rack bar, rack bar The present invention relates to a rack-pinion type steering apparatus which increases steering wheel restoring force and improves steering sensitivity by reducing sliding resistance of the vehicle.
In general, the steering device is provided between the driver's seat and the wheel to move the wheel by the driver, the steering shaft is provided on the lower side of the steering wheel of the driver's seat, the gear box connected to the steering shaft, and the operation of the gear box. It is configured to include a rack bar extending to the left and right sides so as to operate the wheel directly connected to the wheel.

The rack pinion type steering apparatus according to the prior art has a wide contact area between the rack bar and the rack bush sliding in the axial direction when the steering wheel is operated by the driver, and the restoring force of the steering wheel is reduced due to the frictional resistance, thereby preventing the steering wheel from being properly restored. The driver's steering sensitivity was reduced.
In addition, since the rack bush according to the prior art transmits the load in the axial and vertical directions of the rack bar when steering the steering wheel of the driver through the rack bar, the rack bush, and the rack housing, durability by wear decreases after a certain time, and vibration There was a problem that the rattle noise caused by the.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in the background described above, in the rack pinion type steering apparatus, by mounting the ball to the support member for supporting the sliding of the rack bar from the inside of the rack housing to implement rolling friction, the rack bar when the driver's steering wheel operation The purpose of the present invention is to provide a rack-pinion type steering apparatus which improves steering wheel restoring force and improves steering sensitivity by minimizing frictional force due to the linear motion of the steering wheel to smooth the steering feeling and reducing the sliding resistance of the rack bar.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention converts the rotational movement of the steering shaft into a linear motion, and is fixed to one side or both sides of the rack housing, the rack bush penetrates in the longitudinal direction and the inner peripheral surface of the rack bush and the rack bar It is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the rack pinion type steering apparatus including a support member in sliding contact with the rack bar.
As described above, according to the present invention, by mounting the ball to the support member for supporting the sliding of the rack bar from the inside of the rack housing to implement rolling friction, by minimizing the frictional force by the linear movement of the rack bar when the driver's steering wheel operation Smooth steering and reducing the sliding resistance of the rack bar increase the steering wheel restoring force and improve steering sensitivity.
