Connecting arrangement for an airbag module

摘要

The present invention relates to a connecting arrangement for connection of an airbag module to a steering column of a vehicle. The connecting arrangement comprises a first connector located on the airbag module and a second connector (34) located on a component connected to the steering column. The first and second (34) connectors comprise electrical contacts for the airbag module and/or electrical controllers located on a steering wheel of the vehicle. At least one of the first and second (34) connectors is mounted on its respective component so as to be resiliently displaceable with relation to its component at least along a first direction being essentially parallel to the steering column. Further, the first and second (34) connectors are mutually formed such that they automatically connect as the airbag module is being connected to the steering column. The present invention further relates to a method for connecting an airbag module to a steering column of a vehicle.
