Abstract

A telescopic device of a steering column for a vehicle includes an internal tube ( 200 ) connected to a vehicle body and formed in a lengthwise direction, a telescopic bush ( 250 ) provided around the internal tube ( 200 ) and having a fixing hole ( 252 ), through which a tilt bolt ( 300 ) of a tilt device enabling a steering column to have a tilt motion passes, so as to fix the tilt bolt ( 300 ), and an external tube ( 100 ) provided to enclose an outer side of the internal tube ( 200 ) and to move in a telescopic motion in the lengthwise direction of the internal tube ( 200 ) and having a guide hole ( 120 ) formed in the lengthwise direction so that the telescopic bush ( 250 ) is inserted therein and protrudes.

Claims (19)

1. A telescopic device of a steering column for a vehicle, the telescopic device comprising:

an internal tube connected to a vehicle body and formed in a lengthwise direction;

a telescopic bush provided around the internal tube, and having a fixing hole, through which a tilt bolt of a tilt device enabling a steering column to have a tilt motion passes, so as to fix the tilt bolt; and

an external tube provided to enclose an outer side of the internal tube and to move in a telescopic motion in the lengthwise direction of the internal tube, and having a guide hole formed in the lengthwise direction so that the telescopic bush is inserted therein and protrudes,

wherein, in the external tube, a through-hole through which the tilt bolt passes so as to guide a moving range of the external tube is formed at both sides of the guide hole, and

wherein the telescopic bush fixes the tilt bolt in a predetermined height so that the tilt bolt is not in contact with an inner surface of the through-hole.

2. The telescopic device of claim 1 , wherein a connection part fixed to the internal tube is formed at a lower portion of the telescopic bush.

3. A telescopic device of a steering column for a vehicle, comprising:

an internal tube connected to a vehicle body and formed in a lengthwise direction;

a telescopic bush provided around the internal tube, and having a fixing hole, through which a tilt bolt of a tilt device enabling a steering column to have a tilt motion passes, so as to fix the tilt bolt; and

an external tube provided to enclose an outer side of the internal tube and to move in a telescopic motion in the lengthwise direction of the internal tube, and having a guide hole formed in the lengthwise direction so that the telescopic bush is inserted therein and protrudes,

wherein an upper portion of the fixing hole of the telescopic bush is formed to be open.

4. The telescopic device of claim 3 , wherein a connection part fixed to the internal tube is formed at a lower portion of the telescopic bush.

5. A telescopic device of a steering column for a vehicle, comprising:

an internal tube connected to a vehicle body and formed in a lengthwise direction;

a telescopic bush provided around the internal tube, and having a fixing hole, through which a tilt bolt of a tilt device enabling a steering column to have a tilt motion passes, so as to fix the tilt bolt; and

an external tube provided to enclose an outer side of the internal tube and to move in a telescopic motion in the lengthwise direction of the internal tube, and having a guide hole formed in the lengthwise direction so that the telescopic bush is inserted therein and protrudes,

wherein a connection part fixed to the internal tube is formed at a lower portion of the telescopic bush,

wherein a front and rear directional cross section of the connection part is in multi-point contact with the internal tube.
