Crush ribs compress against varying steering wheel sizes to prevent sliding without tearing the inner core.
A foldable steering wheel uses a sliding hub and pneumatic inflation to expand its flexible periphery ring into an operational shape.
A retrofittable hardware attachment integrates sensor transmitters and a master control system to simulate in-game power-ups and virtual weaponry.
Integrated attachment part electrically connects heater terminals to power supply side terminals on steering wheel decorative members.
A vehicle steering assist system adjusts torque rate of change to enable smooth transitions between manual and automatic driving modes.
A tiltable steering wheel rim pivots into a rest position to activate autonomous driving mode.
Dual-layer base materials hide conductors and prevent thermal stress during steering wheel manufacturing.
Spacer member positions temperature adjusting element away from the conductive core to direct heat toward the outer covering.
A movable locking stud switches a steering wheel between active and inactive states, allowing quick mode changes without mechanical tools.
Offset locking pins engage the rim to secure multiple tilt positions without increasing mechanical complexity.
A display section shows active or inactive windows based on pressing force compared to a reference value.
