Abstract

A steering system includes a steering column and a steering wheel gear that are offset from each other so that the torque of steering wheel is transmitted to steering column. An airbag module received in a steering wheel hub of steering wheel is independently mounted such that it is not rotated together with steering wheel by using an offset torque transmission structure interconnecting the steering wheel and steering column. Such configuration allows deployment of a cushion having an asymmetrical optimum shape configured to avoid contacting the chest of a passenger. As the airbag module is not rotated, it is possible to significantly improve the design visibility of a logo.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to vehicle steering systems, and more particularly, to a vehicle steering system including a non-rotating air bag module, wherein the air bag module is mounted independently of rotation of the steering wheel. Background technique [0002] Generally, a vehicle's safety devices are classified into active safety devices that prevent accidents (brakes, anti-lock braking system or ABS, traction control system or TCS, and navigation system) and passive safety devices that protect passengers when an accident occurs (safety belts, airbags and pretensioners). [0003] Among these safety devices, an airbag system is a device that inflates an airbag before a secondary collision of a passenger occurs so as to protect a passenger in the collision. Air bag systems are typically located adjacent to the driver's seat and / or passenger seat in order to prevent facial injuries to the driver and / or passenger. [0004] In the airbag system, ...
