摘要: Various implementations of an illumination system include a light guide, a housing having a ceiling and defining a window, and a base coupled to the housing. The light guide is supported between the base and the ceiling. At least one light source is disposed adjacent a first end of the light guide. The light guide transmits the light from the light source through at least a portion of the outer surface of the light guide and the window. One or more tabs extending from the base each define at least one opening, and the at least one opening defined by each tab is alignable with an opening in a spoke portion of a frame. The openings receive a fastener to couple the base to the spoke portion. The housing may be integrally formed with a trim cover coupled to the frame.

摘要: A steering wheel, including a steering wheel rim and a light-emitting assembly arranged on the steering wheel rim, wherein the light-emitting assembly includes a light source, a light guide member, and a light transmissive member, the light guide member including a light inlet portion, a light outlet portion, and an orientation portion provided between the light inlet portion and the light outlet portion. Light emitted by the light source enters the light inlet portion in a first direction, is oriented by the orientation portion, and then exits the steering wheel from the light outlet portion and the light transmissive member sequentially in a second direction. The first direction is different from the second direction, and the light transmissive member is configured to be annular and arranged in a radial direction of the steering wheel.

摘要: A steering wheel for a vehicle is described. This steering wheel comprises a steering wheel body comprising a grounding feature adapted for being connected to the vehicle ground and at least one electronic assembly being secured to the steering wheel body. The electronic assembly comprises an electronic component, a signal terminal and an assembly-side grounding area being electrically connected to a body-side grounding area of the grounding feature of the steering wheel body. In order to ease the assembly process, at least one electrically conductive and resilient contact element extends between the assembly-side grounding area and the first body-side grounding area. This electrically conductive and resilient contact element is under mechanical tension such that it transfers a force between the steering wheel body and the electric electronic assembly.

摘要: A steering system for a motor vehicle includes a steering wheel, a front hollow-cylindrical steering shaft, and a rear hollow-cylindrical steering shaft. The front hollow-cylindrical steering shaft is connected with the steering wheel at one longitudinal end and with the rear hollow-cylindrical steering shaft at another longitudinal end. The steering system additionally has an air conditioning unit with a cavity system and an air duct. The cavity system is formed in the steering wheel and is connected with the air duct in an air-conducting manner. The air duct is partially formed by the hollow space in the rear hollow-cylindrical steering shaft and a hollow space in the front hollow-cylindrical steering shaft.

摘要: A driving control device includes a steering wheel configured to receive a steering operation, an approach sensor provided in the steering wheel and configured such that a detection value changes as a driver's hand approaches the steering wheel, a steering device configured to turn wheels according to the steering operation, and a controller configured to control the steering device. The controller is configured to estimate a change in a position of the driver's hand based on a change in the detection value of the approach sensor, estimate a moving mode of the driver's hand based on the estimated change in the position of the driver's hand, and cause the steering device to turn the wheels in a case where a vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a threshold value and the moving mode of the driver's hand is a mode along a circumferential direction.

摘要: A component for a vehicle interior may comprise a steering wheel comprising a frame and a composite structure comprising a set of segments. The set of segments may comprise a set of shell segments assembled in axial alignment on the frame and/or in radial engagement around the frame. The set of shell sections may comprise a shell section fit onto the frame; the set of shell sections may be configured for snap-fit assembly. The frame may comprise a feature/indentation facilitating axial alignment and/or radial engagement of a shell section on the frame. A shell section may comprise an engagement portion and/or positioning element. The set of shell sections may comprise a first section fit onto the frame and a second section fit with the first section. The steering wheel may comprise a modular design configured for efficient assembly and/or mass reduction.
