ABSTRACT:
A vehicle steering wheel has an integrated gas bag module comprising an inflator, a folded gas bag and a cover connected to each other by a metallic housing body, and a mounting plate featuring at least one electrically insulated horn contact. The mounting plate is spring supported on said steering wheel body and carries said gas bag module whilst being an integral component of said housing body and thus a component of said gas bag module. To simplify the configuration and the fitting of a vehicle steering wheel having an integrated gas bag module, a plurality of seats for one coil spring each are arranged on said steering wheel body opposite the outer rim portion of said mounting plate, the latter being spring supported by said coil springs on said steering wheel body.
