Abstract

A slide transfer device for a vehicle includes a first rail portion fixed to a vehicle body, a second rail portion rail-coupled to the first rail portion to slide in the front and rear direction and coupled to a movement guide protruding from the first rail portion, and a damper mounted in a mounting hole formed in the second rail portion and configured to support the movement guide inserted into the mounting hole of the second rail portion.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A slide transfer apparatus for a vehicle, the slide transfer apparatus comprising:
a first rail portion fixed to a vehicle body; a second rail portion rail-coupled to the first rail portion to slide in a front and rear direction of the first rail portion, and slidably coupled to a movement guide protruding from the first rail portion; and a damper mounted in a mounting hole formed in the second rail portion, and configured to support the movement guide inserted into the mounting hole of the second rail portion.

2 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the movement guide extends at an inclination from an upper surface of the first rail portion, and is inserted into the mounting hole of the second rail portion.

3 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the damper has a diameter corresponding to an internal diameter of the mounting hole, and wherein a center portion of the damper surrounds an external circumferential surface of the movement guide.

4 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the damper includes a plurality of holes formed radially from a center portion thereof and surrounding an external circumferential surface of the movement guide.

5 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the damper further includes:
an inner hole surrounding an external circumferential surface of the movement guide; and a slot connecting the inner hole to the plurality of holes.

6 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the damper includes an elastic material and has one side open to allow the movement guide to be positioned in a center portion of the damper.

7 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the damper is provided in plural and the plurality of dampers are mounted in the mounting hole.

8 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the first rail portion includes a front panel assembly and a rear panel assembly configured to support a lead screw being configured to transmit operating torque to the second rail portion, and wherein the front panel assembly and the rear panel assembly include a support guide configured to support the lead screw, a driving motor configured to rotate the lead screw, and a reducer configured to reduce a rotation speed of the driving motor.

9 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the front panel assembly and the rear panel assembly include bearing members, mounted in the support guide and in the reducer, respectively, and surrounding an external circumferential surface of the lead screw being axis-coupled to the support guide and to the reducer.

10 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the bearing member includes an elastic material and includes a plurality of holes formed radially from a center portion thereof.

11 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 1 , further including:
a cable portion connected to a main wiring configured to slide together with the second rail portion, and electrically contacting with the main wiring; and a cable main body configured to allow the cable portion to be selectively drawn out or drawn in as the second rail portion slides in the front and rear direction of the first rail portion.

12 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the cable portion includes:
a connector member electrically contacting with the main wiring; and a draw-out member, connected to the connector member, extending in a left and right direction of the second rail portion, and wound inside the cable main body fixed to the first rail portion.

13 . The slide transfer apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the draw-out member is a flexible flat cable (FFC).
