A steering wheel includes an armature body; a wheel rim coupled to the armature body to be folded, a slider provided on the armature body to move linearly while coupled to the wheel rim to be rotatable about a first rotation axis, a link including a first end portion rotatably coupled to the wheel rim about a second rotation axis, different from the first rotation axis, and a second end portion coupled to the armature body to be rotatable about a third rotation axis, and a driving unit engaged to the slider and providing power for a linear motion to the slider.

Steering wheel and vehicle including the same

A foldable steering wheel is configured to be folded or unfolded due to linear movement and rotating movement of the steering wheel to secure an available space in a driver's seat, and the foldable steering wheel includes an armature body connected to a column, the steering wheel coupled to the armature body, configured to be linearly moved in a radial direction with respect to a steering shaft of the column, and configured to be rotatably moved on a rotation shaft which is unparallel to the steering shaft, and a moving device engaged to the steering wheel and configured to generate a linear movement path and a rotating movement path of the steering wheel to move the steering wheel with respect to the armature body.

Foldable steering wheel

A steering column for a vehicle may include a lower column; and an upper column with a lower end portion thereof being fitted into the lower column to slidably overlap the lower column, and with an upper end portion of the upper column coupled to a steering wheel, wherein the upper column may include a guide slot, which extends in the same direction as a direction in which colliding force, generated in a collision, is applied, and wherein a tilt bolt is disposed to extend through the guide slot.

Steering column for vehicle

A steering column assembly for a vehicle may include a buffer structure provided between a steering housing and a steering shaft inserted into the steering housing to distribute vibration applied thereto and to compensate for the distortion of the steering shaft and a clearance of the steering shaft with the steering housing, wherein a support structure is also provided to secure the support performance of the steering housing with respect to a mounting bracket in the event of a tilt and a longitudinal motion of the steering housing, ensuring the horizontal rigidity of the steering housing and reducing vibration applied thereto.
