The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

[0041] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0042] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 9 , the present application proposes a steering wheel cover, comprising a steering wheel cover body and an arc-shaped fixing sheet 2;

[0044] The steering wheel cover body is a single piece of elastic material 1 and can be enclosed into an arc-shaped structure that can wrap the steering wheel. The single piece of elastic material 1 can completely wrap the steering wheel or partially wrap the steering wheel after being enclosed. Several groups of buckles are provided on the single piece of elastic material 1. The buckles include a connecting part and a clamping part. The connecting part is arranged between the single piece of elastic material 1 and the clamping part, and the projection area of ​​the clamping part on the single piece of elastic material 1 is larger than the projection area of ​​the connecting part on the single piece of elastic material 1; the clamping part passes through the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 and is fixed by the arc-shaped fixing plate 2.

[0045] In one embodiment, the buckles include several groups of left buckles 3 and several groups of right buckles 4, and the several groups of left buckles 3 are arranged on one side of a single elastic material 1, and the several groups of right buckles 4 are arranged on the other side of the single elastic material 1; the shape of the single elastic material 1 after being enclosed is adapted to the steering wheel and can be sleeved on the steering wheel, and the inner surface of the single elastic material 1 is in contact with the outer surface of the steering wheel. When in use, the single elastic material 1 is opened to deform it and sleeved on the steering wheel. After the external force is removed, the single elastic material 1 returns to its original state and wraps the steering wheel, and then the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 cooperates with the left buckles 3 and the right buckles 4 to assist in fixation.

[0046] Specifically, in one embodiment, a receiving groove 11 adapted to the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is provided on the single elastic material 1, and the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is arranged in the receiving groove 11. The thickness of the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is equal to the depth of the receiving groove 11. After the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is installed in the receiving groove 11, the outer surface of the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 and the outer surface of the single elastic material 1 are located on the same arc surface. When the user uses it, the height difference between the single elastic material 1 and the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 will not affect the hand feel.

[0047] In this embodiment, the left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 are symmetrically arranged, the left buckle 3 includes a left connecting portion 31 and a left clamping portion 32, and the right buckle 4 includes a right connecting portion 41 and a right clamping portion 42; the left connecting portion 31 is arranged between the single elastic material 1 and the left clamping portion 32, and the projection area of ​​the left clamping portion 32 on the single elastic material 1 is larger than the projection area of ​​the left connecting portion 31 on the single elastic material 1;

[0048] The left clamping portion 32 and the right clamping portion 42 both pass through the arc-shaped fixing piece 2 and are fixed by the arc-shaped fixing piece 2 .

[0049] When in use, after the single piece of elastic material 1 is attached to the steering wheel, the left buckles 3 are close to the corresponding right buckles 4, and the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 is installed in the accommodating groove 11, so that the left clamping portion 32 passes through the fixing hole 21 set on the arc-shaped fixing plate 2, and the corresponding right clamping portion 42 passes through the same fixing hole 21, and the left clamping portion 32 and the right clamping portion 42 are close to each other. At this time, the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is located in the accommodating groove 12, and the number of the left buckles 3, the right buckles 4 and the fixing holes 21 is equal and corresponds one to one. The positions of the left buckles 3 and the right buckles 4 and the positions of the fixing holes 21 also correspond to each other. After all the left buckles 3 and all the right buckles 4 are passed through the corresponding fixing holes 21, since the size of the fixing holes 21 is adapted to the left connecting portion 31 and the right connecting portion 41, the volume of the left clamping portion 32 and the right clamping portion 42 is larger. After passing through the fixing hole 21, in the absence of external force, the left clamping portion 32 or the right clamping portion 42 cannot fall out of the fixing hole 21, and the single piece of elastic material 1 is fixed to the steering wheel through the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2.

[0050] In one embodiment, the left buckle 3, the right buckle 4 and the single elastic material 1 are all elastic materials such as silicone. Under the action of external force, elastic deformation and recovery can occur, and the single elastic material 1, the left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 are all set to a silicone structure. At this time, the single elastic material 1, the left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 can be integrally formed and set, and the production process is relatively simple.

[0051] Since there are multiple left buckles 3, right buckles 4 and fixing holes 21, after each group of left buckles 3 and right buckles 4 are initially fixed through the fixing holes 21, due to differences caused during production or the impact of long-term disassembly and assembly, it is difficult for all the left buckles 3 and right buckles 4 on a single piece of elastic material 1 to be close to each other and fixed in the fixing holes 21, and it is difficult for a single piece of elastic material 1 to fit completely on the steering wheel. At this time, it is necessary to use auxiliary components 5 to assist in fixing each group of left buckles 3 and right buckles 4.

[0052] Reference Figure 2 The steering wheel cover also includes an auxiliary part 5, which includes a left insertion rod 51 and a right insertion rod 52. The left insertion rod 51 and the right insertion rod 52 are connected by a connecting rod 53. The connecting rod 53 is an inverted "U" shape. Under the action of external force, the shape of the connecting rod 53 can be adjusted so that the connecting rod 53 can drive the left insertion rod 51 and the right insertion rod 52 to move, and the left insertion rod 51 can pull the left buckle 3 out of the arc-shaped fixing plate 1, and the right insertion rod 52 can pull the right buckle 4 out of the arc-shaped fixing plate 1.

[0053] Specifically, a left plug hole is provided on the left connection part 31 , and a right plug hole 43 is provided on the right connection part 41 . The left plug hole and the right plug hole 43 are arranged opposite to each other. The left plug hole is used to be plugged with the left plug rod 51 , and the right plug hole 43 is used to be plugged with the right plug rod 52 .

[0054] The auxiliary component 5 has a certain elasticity. After the left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 partially pass through the fixing hole 21, the left insertion rod 51 is inserted into the left insertion hole, and the right insertion rod 52 is inserted into the right insertion hole 43. The user pinches the connecting rod 53 and pulls the left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 outward. The left buckle 3 and the right buckle 4 are forced to come outward and pass through the fixing hole 21. Since the cross-sectional area of ​​the left clamping portion 32 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the left connecting portion 31, the left clamping portion 32 is completely located outside the fixing hole 21, and its size is larger than that of the fixing hole 21, so that the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 is limited between the single elastic material 1 and the left clamping portion 33, so that the position of the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 is relatively fixed to the position of the single elastic material 1. Similarly, the next set of left buckles 3 and right buckles 4 are fixed by the next auxiliary part 5. After they are completely fixed, all the auxiliary parts 5 are removed, and the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 completely fixes the single piece of elastic material 1 on the steering wheel. When the steering wheel cover needs to be installed again, the auxiliary part 5 can be used to assist in the installation.

[0055] In another embodiment, the buckles are distributed on both sides of the single elastic material 1. After the buckles pass through the arc-shaped fixing plate 2, the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 and the single elastic material 1 can be assembled together. The structures of each buckle can be the same or different. They can pass through the arc-shaped fixing plate 2 and be fixed by the arc-shaped fixing plate 2.

[0056] Specifically, the arc-shaped fixing sheet 2 is provided with a plurality of through holes, the size of which matches the size of the connecting portion, the connecting portion is located in the through hole, and the snap-fitting portion passes through the through hole. Since the snap-fitting portion is larger in size, after the snap-fitting portion passes through the through hole, it is difficult to escape from the through hole without external force. The snap-fitting portion can also be assisted to pass through the through hole by the following auxiliary component 5, that is, two plug holes are provided on each snap-fitting portion, so that the two plug holes are matched with the left plug rod 51 and the right plug rod 52. After the snap-fitting portion is initially installed, the snap-fitting portion is pulled out one by one and assisted in fixing by the auxiliary component 5. The principle is similar to that of the above-mentioned embodiment, which will not be described here.

[0057] The steering wheel cover proposed in the present application can be mounted not only on the steering wheel of a car, but also on the steering wheels of other vehicles, and the usage method on different vehicles is the same.

[0058] In this embodiment, two single elastic materials 1 and two arc-shaped fixing sheets 2 are provided, and the two single elastic materials 1 can be symmetrically arranged on the steering wheel. Each single elastic material 1 can cover approximately 4 / 1 to 3 / 1 of the steering wheel. Since the parts that the driver's hands contact for a long time during driving are the left and right sides of the steering wheel, the steering wheel cover can be set on these parts. In different embodiments, the single elastic material 1 can also completely cover the steering wheel.

[0059] In this embodiment, a receiving hole 13 is provided on the single piece of elastic material 1, and the receiving hole 13 is used to receive the spokes of the steering wheel.

[0060] Since there are usually two to four spokes on the steering wheel, a receiving hole 13 for avoiding the spokes needs to be provided on the steering wheel cover, and an opening extends from the receiving hole 13 so that the single piece of elastic material 1 can be opened at the opening, so that the steering wheel cover can be easily put on the spokes during installation, making it easier to fit the steering wheel and more convenient to install.

[0061] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. The preferred embodiments of the present application are given in the accompanying drawings, but they do not limit the patent scope of the present application. The present application can be implemented in many different forms. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive. Although the present application is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, for those skilled in the art, it is still possible to modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned specific implementation methods, or to perform equivalent replacement of some of the technical features therein. Any equivalent structure made using the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields, is similarly within the scope of patent protection of this application.
