Slip joint of steering apparatus for vehicle
A slip joint of a steering apparatus for a vehicle, the slip joint including: an outer member having a plurality of first assembling recesses; an inner member being inserted within the outer member and having a plurality of second assembling recesses; and a slip bush, which is inserted between the outer member and the inner member and has mounting parts, into which balls and rollers are inserted, and elastic parts having one side cut out in an axial direction, each mounting part having a plurality of first mounting holes and a plurality of second mounting holes. Each elastic part transfers power while compensating for clearance even when the balls disposed between the inner member and the outer member of the slip joint are worn away so that a rattling noise generated due to clearance is removed, and steering stability and durability of the slip joint can be improved.
