  • Publication number: 20240034388
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle steering wheel comprising a central portion, a rim which can pivot relative to the central portion between a driving position and at least one retracted position, an actuator pivoting the rim and a locking member that can move between a locking position of the rim in its driving position, and a disengaged position, characterized in that it comprises a mechanism for transmitting movement between the actuator and the rim and between the actuator and the locking member, and which successively drives the locking member towards its disengaged position, then pivots the rim.

  • Patent number: 10759460
    Abstract: A device for fastening a safety module on a steering wheel frame includes at least one resilient ring, at least one hook and at least one valve gridge. The at least one hook includes a first surface forming a guide track ending on an inflection point, and a second surface separated from the first surface by the inflection point. The at least one valve bridge has with a third surface across from the second surface of the hook. The resilient ring locks the module fixed on the frame by bearing on the second surface of the hook and on the third surface of the valve bridge. The third surface of the valve bridge includes at least one recess arranged across from the inflection point.
