METHOD FOR MAKING A STEERING WHEEL

摘要

A METHOD FOR MAKING A STEERING WHEEL A steering wheel for a motor vehicle made according to the present disclosure has a resiliently flexible rim core that is formed by a flat spring wire wound in a helical manner to provide a multiple leaf construction. A steering wheel rim having this core structure is resiliently deflectable in response to an impact load imposed upon the rim in a direction parallel to the axis of the wheel and resistant to deflection by a generally tangential force exerted by a vehicle operator while turning the wheel.
