Embodiment Construction

[0033] figure 1 A schematic perspective view of an exemplary embodiment of a steering wheel device 1 according to the invention is shown. figure 2 show figure 1 The corresponding top view of the steering wheel device 1 shown in . The steering wheel device 1 is a part of a motor vehicle (not shown), including a steering axle (not shown), especially a steering front axle of the motor vehicle, through a steering shaft 2 (see Figure 4 ) a kinematically coupled steering wheel 3 , which is rotatably arranged on a steering column 4 . The steering column 4 has a housing 5 . It is obvious that, in addition to the steering wheel 3 , further operating elements, not marked in detail, such as rocker levers or the like, can also be arranged on the housing 5 .

[0034] It is clear that the steering column 4 according to the invention or the housing 5 belonging to it differs from conventional steering columns by a central recess 6 formed in the housing 5 which is open upwards or in the ...

Abstract

A steering wheel arrangement (1) for a motor vehicle, comprising a steering wheel (3) which is coupled in terms of movement to a steerable axle of the motor vehicle via a steering axle (2), which steering wheel (3) is arranged rotatably on a steering column (4) having a housing body (5), wherein the housing body (4) has at least one upwardly open recess (6) which is bounded at least by two opposite walls (8a, 8b) extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal centre axis (7) of the housing body (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a steering wheel device for a motor vehicle, comprising a steering wheel kinematically coupled with a steering axle of the motor vehicle through a steering shaft, and the steering wheel is rotatably arranged on a steering column with a housing. Background technique [0002] Such steering wheel arrangements are known per se. The basic function of a corresponding steering wheel device is to transmit the rotational movement or actuation of the steering wheel to the steering axle of the motor vehicle, whereby the motor vehicle can be steered. The main components of the steering wheel system are the steering shaft connected to the steering axle of the motor vehicle, usually at least partially arranged in the steering column, and the kinematic coupling arranged on the steering column to the steering shaft and thus to the steering axle of the motor vehicle. steering wheel. [0003] Steering wheel devices known from the prior art gen...
