Abstract
A vehicle steering wheel structure which, while having a configuration in which small damper masses are arranged in a distributed manner, can secure the same highly efficient vibration reducing effect as when a large damper mass is arranged, without increasing the required installation space and the cost. The vehicle steering wheel structure includes a plurality of damper masses arranged so as to be distributed in an inner region of a rim portion of a steering wheel; a connection member that connects these damper masses; and a damper module disposed in the inner region of the rim portion.
