<p>The present invention provides a steering wheel with an impact-energy absorbing movable horn pad connected to an armature. A primary impact-energy absorbing member connected to the horn pad, to absorb primary impact energy from the armature. A set of secondary impact-energy absorbing members connected to the primary impact-energy absorbing member, to absorb secondary impact energy from the primary impact-energy absorbing members. A peripheral impact-energy absorbing arrangement, connected to the primary and secondary impact-energy absorbing members, to absorb residual impact energy from the primary and secondary impact-energy absorbing members and to retain the horn pad with the armature of the steering wheel, to uniformly absorb and dissipate impact-energy. The impact-energy absorbing horn pad of the present invention renders a complete dissipation and absorption of the impact energy without causing any resultant damage to a user and it also prevents the scattering of debris of the horn pad on impact.</p> |
