An instrument panel supporting structure having a switch support member provided with manually operated electric switches and positioned inside the rim portion of a steering wheel of a steerable vehicle, wherein the switch support member having recesses therein is rotatably mounted on the steering shaft and a slider support member having a plurality of sliders slidably supported thereon is secured to the steering column tube and wherein the sliders are urged to protrude into the recesses, respectively, in the switch support member so as to provide engagement between the switches and slider support members and to prevent the switch support member from rotation with respect to the slider support member. When the steering wheel is turned and a radial spoke portion of the steering wheel is brought into engagement with any one of the sliders, the particular slider is forced by the spoke portion to retract away from the recess in the switch support member and permits the spoke portion to move past the slider. |
