Steering wheel mounted stress relief device

Abstract

A stress relief steering wheel cover attached to the rim of a steering wheel. The covers are composed of sac assemblies mounted onto the steering wheel. The sac assemblies are comprised of outer and inner layers. The inner layer housing particulate material. The outer layer is made out of a soft cushion material. The covers are generally “C” shaped, having a narrow opening along one side to allow the cover to be fitted around the steering wheel. A strip of hook and loop fasteners is attached at each end of the opening and serves to fasten the cover around the steering wheel. Alternatively, the stress relief covers may be incorporated directly into the steering wheel. While driving and experiencing stress, the driver would place his or her hands around the covers and squeeze tightly in order to reduce his or her stress level.
