Claims6
A reclining apparatus for a seat, comprising:
- a cam disposed between a mobile flange and a gear plate;
- an input device connected to pass through the gear plate and formed to cover the cam;
- a rotation support interposed between the cam and the gear plate;
- and
- a cap formed to cover the input device, and supported in contact with the rotation support when seated on the input device so that an outer surface of the cap comes into uniform contact with the gear plate, and welding coupling with the gear plate becomes uniform,
- wherein the cap includes a cover seated on the input device and a coupler bent from the cover to be in surface contact with the gear plate, and the coupler extends to come into contact with the rotation support when the cover is seated on the input device, and
- wherein a seating groove is formed at an end portion of the rotation support facing the coupler, and the coupler extends to be inserted into the seating groove of the rotation support.
