ABSTRACT:
A steering wheel which strengthens and simplifies a structure supporting a pad, to which an air bag apparatus is attached, at a cored bar. A cored bar is integrally formed with a bridge (engaging piece) formed by leg portions, which stand upright from spokes or the like, and a crossbar (pressing portion), which is bent and formed from the leg portions. A bracket for a pad, to which an air bag apparatus is attached, is mounted at the space between the boss portion of the cored bar and the crossbar. When the air bag apparatus is operated, impact force applied in a vehicle operator's direction is supported by the bridge (engaging piece) via the bracket.
