[0060] The existing car steering wheel installation is too complicated, and the disassembly of the car steering wheel is time-consuming and laborious, making it difficult to disassemble the steering wheel quickly.
[0061] Accordingly, this application provides a quick-release steering wheel, comprising:
[0062] The steering wheel hub and the steering wheel rim located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub further include: a support docking structure, a disassembly component, a stop component, and a locking structure. The support docking structure is located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub. The disassembly component is disassembled and located on the first side of the support docking structure. The first side of the support docking structure and the opposite side of the steering wheel hub are distributed in the same direction. The stop component is movably disposed within the support docking structure and connected to the disassembly component. While the disassembly component is confined within the support docking structure, it can also move towards the first side of the support docking structure under the action of the disassembly component. The locking structure is connected to the connecting end of the steering wheel rim, and after being inserted into the support docking structure along the second side, it locks into the stop component. The steering wheel hub and steering wheel rim are connected as follows: A snap-fit structure is inserted into the supporting docking structure along its second side. The snap-fit structure applies a shearing force to the stop assembly, pushing it towards the first side of the supporting docking structure. As the shearing force disappears, the stop assembly returns to its original position and snaps into place, thus connecting the steering wheel hub and steering wheel rim. The steering wheel hub and steering wheel rim are disassembled as follows: A disassembly assembly moves the stop assembly towards the first side of the supporting docking structure, separating it from the snap-fit structure. The snap-fit structure is then pulled out along its second side away from the supporting docking structure, thus disassembling the steering wheel hub and steering wheel rim.
[0063] This application describes a quick-release steering wheel that uses a support docking structure to support and connect the disassembly component and the stop component to the steering wheel rim. A snap-fit structure connected to the steering wheel hub is inserted into the support docking structure and engages with the stop component, thus connecting the steering wheel hub and rim. The disassembly component moves the stop component closer to the support docking structure, separating it from the snap-fit structure. The snap-fit structure is then pulled out along the second side away from the support docking structure, allowing for the disassembly of the steering wheel hub and rim. This design allows users to assemble the steering wheel by plugging it in and disassemble it by pulling it out, greatly improving operational convenience. It enables rapid connection and disassembly of mechanical components and has wide applicability and practicality.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, this application provides a quick-release steering wheel, including: a steering wheel hub 1 and a steering wheel rim 2 located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1, and further including: a support docking structure 3, a disassembly assembly 4, a stop assembly 5, and a locking structure 6. The support docking structure 3 is located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1. The disassembly assembly 4 is disassembled and located on the first side of the support docking structure 3. The first side of the support docking structure 3 and the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1 are distributed in the same direction. The stop assembly 5 is movably disposed in the support docking structure 3 and connected to the disassembly assembly 4. While the disassembly assembly 4 is confined within the support docking structure 3, it can also move towards the first side of the support docking structure 3 under the action of the disassembly assembly 4. The locking structure 6 is connected to the connecting end of the steering wheel rim 2, and after being inserted into the support docking structure 3 along the second side of the support docking structure 3, it locks into the stop assembly 5. The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are connected as follows: The snap-fit structure 6 is inserted into the support docking structure 3 along its second side. The snap-fit structure 6 exerts a shearing force on the stop component 5, pushing it towards the first side closer to the support docking structure 3. Simultaneously, as the shearing force disappears, the stop component 5 resets towards the snap-fit structure 6 and snaps into place, thus connecting the steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2. The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are disassembled as follows: The disassembly component 4 moves the stop component 5 towards the first side closer to the support docking structure 3, separating it from the snap-fit structure 6. The snap-fit structure 6 is then pulled out along its second side away from the support docking structure 3, thus disassembling the steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2.
[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the main body of the steering wheel hub 1 is disc-shaped, and the steering wheel rim 2 is located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1. In one example, the steering wheel rim 2 is symmetrically arranged on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1 with respect to the center of the steering wheel hub 1, specifically distributed at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions of the steering wheel hub 1. That is, there are two steering wheel rims 2, one of which is located at the 3 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1, and the other is located at the 9 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1. In one example, the steering wheel rim 2 includes: a frame body 21 and a rim foam body 22, wherein the rim foam body 22 is foamed and wrapped around the frame body 21.
[0067] The supporting docking structure 3 is located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1. Specifically, in one example, the supporting docking structure 3 is symmetrically arranged on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1 with respect to the center of the steering wheel hub 1, and is distributed at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions of the steering wheel hub 1. That is, there are two supporting docking structures 3, one of which is located at the 3 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1, and the other is located at the 9 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1.
[0068] In this embodiment, the support docking structure 3 includes: a support connecting block 31, a first docking slide 32, and a second docking slide 33. The support connecting block 31 is disposed on opposite sides of the steering wheel hub 1. Specifically, in one example, the support connecting blocks 31 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the steering wheel hub 1 with respect to the center of the steering wheel hub 1, and are specifically distributed at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions of the steering wheel hub 1. That is, there are two support connecting blocks 31, one located at the 3 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1 and the other located at the 9 o'clock position of the steering wheel hub 1. In one example, the support connecting block 31 has a cuboid structure, specifically a trapezoid, cuboid, or cube. In another example, the support connecting block 31 can also be a prism or polygon, such as a cylinder.
[0069] The first docking slide 32 is disposed on the supporting connecting block 31 along a first direction, and the opening of the first docking slide 32 is distributed on the first side of the supporting connecting block 31. Here, the first direction refers to the direction along the line connecting the 3 and 9 o'clock positions of the steering wheel hub 1 as a reference. The first side of the supporting connecting block 31 is the first side of the supporting docking structure 3, specifically the outer side of the supporting connecting block 31 in the first direction. The first docking slide 32 is disposed through the first side of the supporting connecting block 31 along the first direction, such that the opening of the first docking slide 32 is distributed on the first side of the supporting connecting block 31. The second docking slide 33 is disposed on the supporting connecting block 31 along a second direction, and the opening of the second docking slide 33 is distributed on the second side of the supporting connecting block 31. The second docking slide 33 is connected to the first docking slide 32. Here, the first and second directions are perpendicular, and the second side of the supporting connecting block 31 is adjacent to and perpendicular to the first side. Of course, in other examples, the second side of the supporting connecting block 31 is adjacent to and not perpendicular to the first side.
[0070] The stop assembly 5 is movably disposed in the support docking structure 3. Specifically, the stop assembly 5 is movably disposed in the first docking slide 32 of the support docking structure 3. In this embodiment, the stop assembly 5 includes a stop block 51 and a spring 52. The stop block 51 slides along the first direction in the first docking slide 32. In one example, the stop block 51 includes a block body 511, a limiting groove 512, and a connecting hole 513. The block body 511 has an abutment end face and a connecting end face disposed opposite to each other in the first direction. The abutment end face is disposed away from the first side of the support connecting block 31, and the connecting end face is disposed close to the first side of the support connecting block 31. In one example, the abutment end face is set as an inclined end face. Specifically, when the stop block 51 is installed in the first docking slide 32, its cross-section in the second direction is a right trapezoid. In the insertion direction of the snap-fit structure 6, the upper base and the lower base of the right trapezoid are distributed sequentially, and the upper base and the waist form an obtuse angle, while the lower base and the waist form an acute angle. This allows the locking structure 6 to slide gradually along the insertion direction on the abutting end face when it contacts the abutting end face, while simultaneously pushing the stop block 51 towards the first side of the supporting connecting block 31. It should be noted that when the stop block 51 moves along the first mating slide 32 towards the first side of the supporting connecting block 31, it will be limited by the disassembly component 4 within the supporting mating structure 3, so that the stop block 51 does not detach from the supporting connecting block 31.
[0071] A connecting hole 513 is disposed in the middle of the connecting end face along a first direction, and the holes of the connecting hole 513 are distributed along the first direction. In this embodiment, there is only one connecting hole 513. A limiting groove 512 is disposed on both sides of the connecting hole 513 along the first direction, and one end of the spring 52 is connected to the limiting groove 512. The spring 52 is connected between the stop block 51 and the disassembly assembly 4. When the stop block 51 moves toward the first side supporting the connecting block 31, the spring 52 is compressed to have a restoring elastic force.
[0072] In this embodiment, the stop component 5 is movably disposed in the support docking structure 3 and connected to the disassembly component 4. While the disassembly component 4 is confined within the support docking structure 3, it can also move towards the first side of the support docking structure 3 under the action of the disassembly component 4. Specifically, the disassembly component 4 includes a detachable baffle 41, a disassembly connecting pin 42, a through hole 43, and a baffle connecting structure 44. The detachable baffle 41 can be connected to the first side of the support connecting block 31 via the baffle connecting structure 44. In one example, the detachable baffle 41 has an area adapted to the first side of the support connecting block 31, so that the detachable baffle 41 can cover the end face of the first side of the support connecting block 31. In one example, the baffle connecting structure 44 includes a baffle screw 441 and a screw hole 442, wherein the screw hole 442 passes through the detachable baffle 41 and is disposed on the support connecting block 31, and the baffle screw 441 is screwed into the screw hole 442 to fix the detachable baffle 41 to the support connecting block 31. In one example, the baffle connection structure 44 also includes pins and pin holes. The other end of the spring 52 is connected to the detachable baffle 41. Specifically, in one example, the detachable baffle 41 has a receiving groove on its end face facing the first side of the supporting connecting block 31, and the other end of the spring 52 is connected in the receiving groove.
[0073] The through hole 43 passes through the removable baffle 41 along the first direction and is positioned opposite to the connecting hole 513. The disassembly connecting pin 42 is inserted into the through hole 43 and connected to the connecting hole 513 to drive the stop block 51 to move synchronously in the first direction. Specifically, in one example, the disassembly connecting pin 42 includes: an integrally formed connecting section 421, a sliding section 422, a limiting section 423, and a pulling section 424 arranged sequentially in the first direction. In one example, the integrally formed connecting section 421, sliding section 422, limiting section 423, and pulling section 424 are all cylindrical structures. The connecting section 421 can be connected to the connecting hole 513; that is, in one example, the outer circumferential end face of the connecting section 421 has an external thread, and correspondingly, the inner circumferential end face of the connecting hole 513 has an internal thread. The internal and external threads are connected to achieve the connection between the connecting section 421 and the connecting hole 513. The sliding section 422 slides along the through hole 43 in the first direction. The length of the sliding section 422 is longer than the length of the through hole 43. The limiting section 423 is limited to the outside of the removable baffle 41, which is the side of the removable baffle 41 furthest from the first side of the supporting connecting block 31. In one example, the diameter of the limiting section 423 is larger than the diameter of the sliding section 422. The pulling section 424 is used to pull the disassembly connecting pin 42. In one example, to increase the friction of the pulling section 424 when in contact with a hand, the outer circumferential end face of the pulling section 424 is configured as a friction thread. It also includes a protective sleeve, which is fitted onto the first side of the supporting docking structure 3 and encloses the disassembly assembly 4. The purpose of the protective sleeve is to prevent the disassembly assembly 4 from being pulled when the hand accidentally touches it.
[0074] The snap-fit structure 6 is connected to the connecting end of the steering wheel rim 2, and after being inserted into the supporting docking structure 3 along the second side of the supporting docking structure 3, it snaps into the stop component 5. Specifically, in this embodiment, the snap-fit structure 6 includes a snap-fit body 61 and a snap-fit groove 62. The snap-fit body 61 is connected to the connecting end of the steering wheel rim 2, and the snap-fit body 61 has a size adapted to the opening of the second docking slide 33, so that the snap-fit body 61 can slide in the second docking slide 33. The snap-fit groove 62 is recessed in the snap-fit body 61, and the opening of the snap-fit groove 62 is set towards the stop block 51, so that the stop block 51 can be inserted into the snap-fit groove 62.
[0075] The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are connected as follows: The snap-fit body 61 of the snap-fit structure 6 is inserted into the second mating slide 33 along the second side of the support connecting block 31. The snap-fit body 61 exerts a shearing force on the stop block 51 to push the stop block 51 to move towards the first side closer to the support connecting block 31. When the shearing force disappears, the stop block 51 resets and snaps into the snap-fit groove 62 near the snap-fit body 61, thereby connecting the steering wheel hub 1 and the steering wheel rim 2. The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are disassembled as follows: The disassembly connecting pin 42 of the disassembly assembly 4 drives the stop block 51 to move towards the first side closer to the support connecting block 31, so that the stop block 51 separates from the snap-fit body 61. The snap-fit body 61 is then pulled out along the second side away from the support connecting block 31, thereby disassembling the steering wheel hub 1 and the steering wheel rim 2.
[0076] In this embodiment, it also includes a retaining ring 7, which is disposed on the steering wheel rim 2 and is used to hold the airbag module 8 in place.
[0077] This application provides a quick-release steering wheel, including: a steering wheel hub 1 and a steering wheel rim 2 located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1; and further including: a support docking structure 3, a disassembly assembly 4, a stop assembly 5, and a locking structure 6. The support docking structure 3 is located on the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1. The disassembly assembly 4 is disassembled and located on the first side of the support docking structure 3. The first side of the support docking structure 3 and the opposite side of the steering wheel hub 1 are located in the same direction. The stop assembly 5 is movably disposed in the support docking structure 3 and connected to the disassembly assembly 4. While the disassembly assembly 4 is confined within the support docking structure 3, it can also move towards the first side of the support docking structure 3 under the influence of the disassembly assembly 4. The locking structure 6 is connected to the connecting end of the steering wheel rim 2, and after being inserted into the support docking structure 3 along the second side of the support docking structure 3, it locks into the stop assembly 5. The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are connected as follows: The snap-fit structure 6 is inserted into the support docking structure 3 along its second side. The snap-fit structure 6 exerts a shearing force on the stop component 5, pushing it towards the first side closer to the support docking structure 3. Simultaneously, as the shearing force disappears, the stop component 5 resets towards the snap-fit structure 6 and snaps into place, thus connecting the steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2. The steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2 are disassembled as follows: The disassembly component 4 moves the stop component 5 towards the first side closer to the support docking structure 3, separating it from the snap-fit structure 6. The snap-fit structure 6 is then pulled out along its second side away from the support docking structure 3, thus disassembling the steering wheel hub 1 and steering wheel rim 2.
[0078] This application describes a quick-release steering wheel. The disassembly assembly 4 and the stop assembly 5 are supported and connected to the steering wheel rim 2 via a support docking structure 3. A snap-fit structure 6, connected to the steering wheel hub 1, is inserted into the support docking structure 3 and snaps into the stop assembly 5, thus connecting the steering wheel hub 1 and the steering wheel rim 2. The disassembly assembly 4 moves the stop assembly 5 towards the first side of the support docking structure 3, separating it from the snap-fit structure 6. The snap-fit structure 6 is then pulled out along the second side away from the support docking structure 3, allowing the disassembly of the steering wheel hub 1 and the steering wheel rim 2. This design allows users to assemble the steering wheel by plugging it in and disassemble it by pulling it out, greatly improving operational convenience. It enables rapid connection and disassembly of mechanical components and has wide applicability and practicality.
