ABSTRACT:
A steering wheel is provided with a core of a ring portion, a boss disposed at the center of the core of the ring portion, and cores of a spoke portion disposed between the core of the ring portion and the boss. A first deformable member is interposed between the boss and cores of the spoke portion so as to couple the boss with the cores of the spoke portion, and is provided with a plurality of arm portions which extend radially from the boss and can be plastically deformed. Further, a second deformable member is fixed to the boss at the upper side or lower side of the first deformable member, and abuts on the first deformable member in the deformed state of the first deformable member and then is plastically deformed.
