Structure for coupling steering wheel and rotary connector of vehicle

摘要

Pins (59) are arranged on the upper surface of a rotary case (33) of a rotary connector (57) for electrically connecting the steering wheel (49) and the steering column (55) of a vehicle by means of a flexible flat cable (11), while the steering wheel (49) is provided on the lower surface thereof with coupling holes (61) for respectively receiving a corresponding pin (59) in order to securely hold the rotary case (33). Each of the pins (59) is provided with an elastic silicon rubber cap (65). The elastic cap (65) comprises a cylindrical main body (67) and a plurality of elastic members (69) extending longitudinally along the axis of the cylindrical section. When viewed from above, the elastic members (69) show an arcuately curved and tapered profile projecting from the base toward the tip.
