Zusammenfassung: | To provide a steering wheel which enables members for inputting accelerator operation and brake operation to be returned to initial positions with a simple configuration.SOLUTION: A steering wheel comprises: a left operation part and a right operation part which are supported so as to be swingable with respect to a steering part 1, and which each input accelerator operation when operated to swing in one direction, and each input brake operation when operated to swing in the other direction; and a link mechanism 50 which synchronizes the swing motions of the left operation part and the right operation part. A cam member 62 of the link mechanism 50 comprises a cam surface 62a having a shape which, in whichever direction the cam member 62 rotates with the swing in the one direction and the swing in the other direction of the left operation part and the right operation part, causes a pusher 63 as a cam follower to move in such a direction as to elastically deform a compression spring 64 against the energization force of the compression spring 64. When the swing operation of the left operation part and the right operation part is released, the cam member 62 is returned to a phase before rotation by the energization force of the compression spring 64.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8
【課題】簡易な構成でアクセル操作及びブレーキ操作を入力する部材を初期位置に戻すことができるステアリングホイールを提供する。【解決手段】ステアリングホイールは、操舵部1に対して揺動可能に支持され、一方の方向に揺動操作されることでアクセル操作を入力し、他方の方向に揺動操作されることでブレーキ操作を入力する左操作部及び右操作部と、左操作部及び右操作部の揺動動作を同期させるリンク機構50を備え、リンク機構50のカム部材62は、左操作部及び右操作部の一方の方向への揺動及び他方の方向への揺動に伴っていずれの方向に回転した場合であっても、圧縮ばね64の付勢力に抗して圧縮ばね64を弾性変形させる方向にカムフォロアとしてのプッシャ63を移動させる形状のカム面62aを有し、左操作部及び右操作部の揺動操作が解除された場合、圧縮ばね64の付勢力によって回転前の位相に戻る。【選択図】図8 |
