Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with the configuration as described above, since heating is performed by blowing heated air, discomfort caused by the low-temperature airflow hitting the human body when the air starts being blown cannot be avoided, and the driver has to turn the switch every time. Not only is it complicated to operate as it requires turning on and off, but it is also undesirable from a safety standpoint.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 2 and 3. In FIG. 2, the instrument panel 1 is equipped with an infrared heater 7 using an infrared lamp that emits infrared rays in the direction of the steering wheel 2, and the steering wheel is equipped with a thermistor 5 that detects the temperature of the steering wheel. A control device 6 is provided that controls energization of the infrared heater 7 based on the detected temperature.

顔に当たることによる不快感がない。
(1) Because heating is performed by radiant heat transfer, it takes only a short time to feel the heating sensation, and there is no discomfort caused by airflow hitting the face.

(2) ハンドル温に応じて自動的に赤外照射を入り
切りするため加熱し過ぎが無く省エネルギーで
ある。
(2) Infrared irradiation is automatically turned on and off according to the handle temperature, which prevents overheating and saves energy.

(3) 運転者に余分な操作による負担をかけないと
ともに、低温のハンドルから手を離して運転す
