Abstract:
A steering wheel unit, including a steering wheel body ( 10 ), an airbag housing ( 30 ) in the hub region of the steering wheel body with an airbag ( 38 ); First positioning units ( 40 ) between the steering wheel body ( 10 ) and the airbag housing ( 30 ) that position the airbag housing ( 30 ) on the steering wheel body ( 10 ) in the axial direction; Second positioning units between the steering wheel body ( 10 ) and the airbag housing ( 30 ) position the airbag housing ( 30 ) on the steering wheel body ( 40 ) in the radial plane. The second positioning unit includes at least one positioning element ( 52, 62 ) having a contact surface ( 56, 66 a,  66 b ), normal or surface normals are perpendicular to the axial direction; and an opposing contact surface ( 58, 68 a,  68 b ) for the contact surface ( 56, 66 a,  66 b ). The positioning element ( 52, 62 ) includes at least one elastically deformable positioning section ( 54, 64 a,  64 b ).

Claim (Index 1):
A steering wheel unit comprising;\n a steering wheel body, an airbag housing accommodated in a hub region of the steering wheel body wherein an airbag is accommodated, first positioning units operating between the steering wheel body and the airbag housing, which the first positioning units position the airbag housing on the steering wheel body in an axial direction, second positioning units operating between the steering wheel body and the airbag housing, the second positioning units position the airbag housing on the steering wheel body in a radial plane, at least one of the second positioning units includes at least one positioning element extending in the axial direction including at least one contact surface having a surface perpendicular to the axial direction, and an opposing contact surface for the contact surface, the positioning element includes at least one positioning section including the contact surface, the positioning section is elastically deformable perpendicular to the axial direction, and a rigid movement-limiting section disposed on a side of the positioning section facing away from the contact surface and disposed spaced from the positioning section.
