Abstract

The steering wheel includes a central body (7) secured around its periphery to the coating (6) of the rim (1) and the spokes (2), as well as an outer layer (8) which continuously covers this coating (6) and the front face of the central body (7). The mounting piece (23) is a ring with an internal outline exhibiting two portions of a circle of different diameters and a binding screw. The steering column has a top, the end section (25) of which has a smaller diameter than the section (24) surrounded by the hub (3), and a groove at the base of the end section (25) in which the mounting piece (23) is accommodated. <IMAGE>
