  • Patent number: 11673602
    Abstract: A steering wheel arrangement 1 is described comprising a steering wheel (2) having a rim (3) and a steering column 4 rotatably supported in the housing (5) and connected to the rim (3), wherein an electric machine (9, 13, 14) is operatively connected to the steering wheel (2). Such a steering wheel arrangement should be able to produce a force feedback to a traditional steering wheel in a reliable low-cost solution with a high functional safety rating. To this end electric machine (9, 13, 14) is integrated in the rim (3).
