Title:
運転席用エアバッグ装置の取付構造及びステアリングホイール
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5353212
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A driver-airbag-apparatus-attaching structure is provided having a simple configuration and with which space can be saved. A snap-lock mechanism includes brackets projecting from the front surface of a steering hub portion, attachment pieces projecting from the bottom surface of a retainer of a driver airbag apparatus in such a manner as to overlap the brackets, openings provided in the brackets, and projecting portions projecting from surfaces of the respective attachment pieces that are to face the respective brackets. The projecting portions are continuous with the attachment pieces with respective elastically deformable portions interposed therebetween. When the driver airbag apparatus is bought near to the steering hub portion, the attachment pieces move along the brackets, and the projecting portions receive reactive forces from the brackets, whereby the elastically deformable portions elastically deform. When the projecting portions reach the openings, the elastically deformable portions elastically restore the original forms, and the projecting portions engage with the openings.
