ABSTRACT:
A security device for an automobile type steering wheel includes a two-section rim protection arrangement having a circumferential skirt portion, which may be of concave cross-section, to shield the rim of the steering wheel. The rim protection sections are attached to two elongated beam members which are placed across the steering wheel rim, with an extension out from the rim which is long enough to limit rotation of the steering wheel. The two beam members are locked in position by locking fixtures which have an unlocked state permitting relative movement or rotation of the two rim protection sections for placement on the steering wheel rim and a locked state in which the security device is fixed in place on the steering wheel. Other embodiments include a unitary, central locking security device having locking fixtures which extend under a steering wheel rim and are locked in place.
