The spring assembly (100) includes: a thigh spring case (150) in which a spring guide unit (151), a spring fixing unit (152), and a spring fixing groove (153) are formed; a lower leg spring case (160) which is coupled to the thigh spring case (150) and in which a spring winding device (161) is formed; a helical spring (170) installed between the thigh spring case (150) and the lower leg spring case (160); a thigh connecting plate (130) connected to the thigh spring case (150); and a lower leg connecting plate (140) connected to the lower leg spring case (160). The spring assembly (100) is coupled to left and right sides of the inner circumferential surface of the thigh belt (110) and the lower leg belt (120) individually. Therefore, the knee guard can be worn during the whole time of climbing without particular difficulties when the user bends his or her legs a lot to climb a mountain.</p> |
