It is reel of ribbon cable for the airbag and controls on the steering
wheel. It allows the steering wheel make a few complete revolutions
without wires getting to tight, loose, or twisted while making
perfect contact. There are no moving contact points like brushes on
the armature of an electric motor.
It's not a very exact explanation but probably enough for you to get
the idea. Hope it helps!
