ABSTRACT:
A safety steering wheel for motor vehicles is disclosed, the improvement sisting in that between the steering wheel hub and the wheel rim and spokes assembly a yieldable connection structure is inserted, said structure comprising an annular rib and a central framing in the shape of a lattice work. The stiffness of the component parts of the resilient structure is so designed as to permit a temporary deformation of the wheel assembly so as to spread the impact energy over a surface which is the widest possible.
