ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for the steering wheel and control mechanisms for a motor vehicle. Transverse arms are attached to the steering arm near the steering column below the plane of steering the wheel. The lateral ends of the transverse arms are rigidly connected with a U-shaped frame portion for switches in order to form a closed frame member having an inner hollow space. The frame member is essentially parallel to the plane of the steering wheel. Switch levers and rotary switches are disposed on the lateral arms of the frame member, and monitoring devices for the vehicle are disposed on the upper cross member of the frame. The switch members and monitoring devices are disposed in an optimum visual and accessibility region for the driver.
