COLLISION ENERGY ABSORBING STRUCTURE OF STEERING COLUMN EQUIPPED WITH WIRE

摘要

A structure of absorbing the shock of a steering column having a wire is provided to employ a fixture member to fix a remaining portion of a shock absorbing wire after the shock absorbing wire is bent. A steering tube(200) is coupled to a steering wheel. A lower shaft(210) is inserted into the steering tube. A shock absorbing wire(300) is inserted into the outer circumferential surface of the lower shaft and the inner circumferential surface of the steering tube. The first and second grooves are formed in the outer circumferential surface of the lower shaft and the inner circumferential surface of the steering tube. The first and second grooves are matched with each other when the lower shaft is coupled to the steering tube. The shock absorbing wire is interposed between the first and second grooves.
