Abstract
A steering wheel includes: a rim part having a non-annular shape; and a spoke part. The spoke part includes an inflection section, an upper inclination surface, and a lower inclination surface. The inflection section extends along an extension direction of the spoke part and faces a driver's side. The upper inclination surface extends toward an upper side from the inflection section and is curved to a vehicle forward side. The lower inclination surface extends toward a lower side from the inflection section and is curved to the vehicle forward side. The upper inclination surface is set such that a radius of curvature of a portion curved to the vehicle forward side is larger than a radius of curvature of a portion curved to the vehicle forward side of the lower inclination surface. The rim part includes a protrusion portion protruding upward from a position adjacent to the upper inclination surface in a steering neutral state.
