Abstract
A driving force transmitting apparatus having a screw for connecting to a motor and a driven member, a nut member in threadable engagement with the screw, a holder containing the nut member for connection to a fixed member, a stopper limiting relative movement between the nut member and the screw, and an elastic member covering the entire outer surface of the nut member so the elastic member and the nut member form a single body.
Claims11
A driving force transmitting apparatus, comprising:
- a screw for connection to a driving member and a driven member,
- a nut member in threadable engagement with the screw, said nut member having an outer surface,
- a holder, containing the nut member, for connection to a fixed member,
- a stopper limiting relative movement between the holder containing the nut member and the screw, and
- an elastic member covering the outer surface of the nut member so the elastic member and the nut member are a single one piece body.
A driving force transmitting apparatus for a vehicle seat, comprising:
- a pair of lower rails for securing to a floor of a vehicle,
- a pair of upper rails mounted on the lower rail and slidably movable relative to the lower rail,
- a seat cushion supported by the upper rails,
- a seat reclining mechanism supporting a seat back and rotating relative to the seat cushion,
- a screw connected to one of the upper and lower rails,
- a nut member, having an outer surface, said nut member being threadably mounted on the screw,
- a holder accommodating the nut member, said holder being connected to the other of the upper and lower rails,
- a stopper limiting relative movement between the nut member and the screw, and
- an elastic member covering the outer surface of the nut member so the elastic member and the nut member are a single body.
