Crash energy absorber for a vehicle steering wheel

摘要

A crash energy absorber mounted on the tip end of steering wheel including a structure including a top plate and a pair of side plates extending substantially perpendicularly to the top plate at the opposite sides of the top plate to define a substantially rectangular space with the top plate, and at least one reinforcement extending diagonally in the space defined by the plate structure. The crash energy absorber absorbs a crash energy applied thereto in any direction so as to relieve crash shock from a driver.
