Claims

[Scope of utility model registration request]

In a steering wheel that is attached to a boss at the tip of a steering shaft, a cover pad that is disposed at the center of the steering wheel and covers the front of the boss is formed in a substantially rectangular box shape, and is mounted inside the cover pad. The energy absorbing member has a front plate along the inner wall surface of the front plate portion of the cover pad, and both side plates along the inner wall surface of the opposite side plate portion of the cover pad, and is formed in a U-shape in cross section. An energy absorbing structure characterized in that a front plate of an absorbing member is provided with flange portions having rounded surfaces at both ends.
