At present, the steering wheel of many vehicles will produce vibration or abnormal sound in a certain speed range (such as above 120km / h) or special road conditions (such as bumpy road conditions), and these vibrations or abnormal sounds are particularly prominent in electric vehicles. Disturbance to the driver. Among them, these vibrations are caused by the rigid connection (such as fixed by nut) of the steering wheel and the steering column, and the vibration of the steering column to the chassis is caused by the vibration of the steering column to the steering wheel. The abnormal sound is mostly caused by the vibration of the airbag module and the spring steel strip or the steering wheel skeleton that fixes the airbag module. In order to weaken these vibrations and abnormal sounds, a corresponding damping device is arranged on the steering wheel, which is generally composed of an elastomer and a mass block, and the larger the mass block, the more obvious the damping effect. At present, the mainstream is to arrange the airbag module of the steering wheel as a damping mass block.
