Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a torque sensor apparatus for a steering apparatus, and more particularly, to a torque sensor apparatus for a steering apparatus which prevents fluctuations in the position of a torque sensor provided in a housing, To a torque sensor device of a steering apparatus capable of reducing the assembling failure of the torque sensor.
BACKGROUND ART [0002] Generally, an automobile steering apparatus is a device for changing a traveling direction of a vehicle according to a driver's will, and is a device for assisting a driver to advance a vehicle in a desired direction by arbitrarily changing a turning center of a front wheel of the vehicle to be.

The angular change due to the twist is very small. When the position of the upper plate and the lower plate changes due to the vibration of the vehicle, control becomes difficult due to a signal error, and the upper plate and the lower plate must be fixed to the housing (not shown).
An O-
When the torque sensor is inserted into the housing to assemble the torque sensor device of the steering apparatus, friction occurs due to the O-ring, and the torque sensor is not horizontally seated, and eccentricity or excessive force is applied thereto to cause breakage or noise do. Therefore, there is a need to improve this.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a torque sensor device for a steering apparatus which is capable of reducing assembling defects and does not require additional components.
A torque sensor device of a steering apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a torque sensor on which an input shaft and an output shaft are mounted; a housing surrounding the torque sensor; And a movement preventing part provided on the torque sensor and preventing movement of the torque sensor.
In one embodiment, the movement preventing portion includes a first movement preventing member that is press-fitted into the housing to prevent radial movement of the torque sensor.
In one embodiment, the first movement preventing member is formed so as to protrude from the outer periphery of the torque sensor.
In one embodiment, the first movement preventing member has a half-moon shape.
In one embodiment, the movement preventing portion includes a second movement preventing member for preventing movement of the torque sensor in the rotating direction, and the housing has a press-fit groove into which the second movement preventing member is press-fitted.
In one embodiment, the second movement preventing member is formed to protrude from the outer periphery of the torque sensor.
In one embodiment, the second movement preventing member is U-shaped with the outside open.
In one embodiment, the movement preventing portion is injection molded integrally with the torque sensor.
The torque sensor device of the steering apparatus according to the present invention eliminates the need to add additional parts such as an O-ring and an outer eccentric washer to fix the torque sensor, thereby simplifying the assembling process and reducing the manufacturing cost.
In addition, the present invention allows the torque sensor to be mounted horizontally, thereby reducing assembly defects and noise.
Hereinafter, an embodiment of a torque sensor device of a steering apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this process, the thicknesses of the lines and the sizes of the components shown in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of explanation. In addition, the terms described below are defined in consideration of the functions of the present invention, which may vary depending on the intention or custom of the user, the operator. Therefore, definitions of these terms should be made based on the contents throughout this specification.
