[0002] The shift paddles are usually located at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions on the steering wheel, with the left and right paddles used for downshifting and upshifting respectively. When using the shift paddles, the left paddle is used to slow down (downshift), while the right paddle is used to accelerate (upshift). This design allows the driver to shift gears quickly and conveniently without leaving the steering wheel, providing great convenience. Specifically, when accelerating, gently swing the right paddle to the right, and when decelerating, use your left hand to swing the left paddle. This operation is simple and quick, does not require leaving the steering wheel, and provides great convenience for the driver.

[0003] According to a vehicle-use adjustable steering wheel shift paddle mentioned in Chinese patent application No. 201520605069.7, the vehicle-use adjustable steering wheel shift paddle can solve the problem that ordinary swinging paddles have a relatively simple structure and cannot be changed in size, resulting in a limited shift range. However, the vehicle-use adjustable steering wheel shift paddle does not have a balancing component when in use, resulting in instability of existing shift paddles when shifting left and right, resulting in shift failure. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a shift paddle that is easy to clean to solve the above-mentioned problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a shift paddle that is easy to clean and has the advantages of enabling the shift paddle to maintain relatively good stability when shifting left and right, thereby solving the problem that the existing shift paddle is prone to instability when shifting left and right.
