Patent ID: 10821908

Abstract:
The present invention concerns a tablet device (10) and an associated cradle (12) holding the tablet device. The cradle comprises a mounting portion (18) for mounting the tablet device (10) and cradle (12) to a steering wheel (60). The mounting portion (18) is configured such that when the tablet device (10) and associated cradle (12) is mounted to a steering wheel (60), a bottom edge of the tablet device (10) and associated cradle (12) lies outside a first airbag-deployment-zone (70) and within a second airbag-deployment-zone (72). Contact between the bottom edge of the tablet device (10) and associated cradle (12) and an airbag deployed into the second airbag-deployment-zone (72) pushes the tablet device (10) and associated cradle (12) into the steering wheel (60).
