본 발명은 스티어링 휠에 에어백 모듈과 함께 장착되는 혼의 작동감을 향상시킬 수 있도록 한 자동차용 혼 작동 장치에 관한 것이다. 즉, 본 발명은 혼 작동시 에어백 모듈이 하강하는 것이 아니라, 에어백 모듈은 고정된 상태에서 혼 작동용 커버만이 하강하여 접점스위치의 스위칭 접촉이 이루어질 수 있도록 함으로써, 혼 작동력을 저감시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 혼이 작동하는 시점에서의 운전자가 혼 작동감을 느낄 수 있도록 한 자동차용 혼 작동 장치를 제공하고자 한 것이다.
A device for operating a horn of a vehicle includes: a horn operation cover covering a top portion and a circumference of an airbag module mounted on a frame of a steering wheel of the vehicle, the horn operation cover configured to be moved downward or upward; a conductive plate spring having one end fixed to the frame and another end in contact with the horn operation cover; and a conductive contact terminal disposed under the plate spring such that a contact between the contact terminal and the plate spring is possible. When the horn operation cover is moved downward so as to press the other end of the plate spring, the plate spring electrically contacts the contact terminal, thereby operating the horn.
