Abstract:
A steering wheel arrangement includes a steering wheel rotatable about a rotation axis, a steering shaft, a stationary housing covering at least partially the steering shaft and supporting at least one accessory, a plurality of coupling elements adapted to couple the steering wheel to the steering shaft, such that rotation of the steering wheel causes rotation of the steering shaft. Each coupling element is integral in rotation with the steering shaft and slidably movable along an axial direction between an upper position and a lower position, and wherein each coupling element is detachably connected to the steering wheel, each coupling element being connected to the steering wheel in its upper position, such that rotation of the steering wheel causes rotation of the coupling element, and being disconnected from the steering wheel in its lower position, such that rotation of the steering wheel does not cause rotation of the coupling element.
