    摘要: An airbag device for protecting an occupant in a vehicle includes a folded airbag, a case accommodating the airbag, and a gas generator for inflating the airbag. The airbag device has a front surface facing the occupant and a rear surface opposite to the front surface. The air bag is arranged through a first-processed folded state and a second-processed folded state. A peripheral edge of the airbag of the first-processed folded state is folded to be located between the front and rear surfaces at a plurality of portions from a flatly deployed state. The second-processed folded state is made by folding a peripheral edge in the first-processed folded state to be located between the front and rear surfaces at a plurality of portions.

    摘要: A novel safety restraint system especially well suited to protect occupants of a vehicle from lateral impact is described. One or more cushion portions are provided and installed to inflate between an occupant and a lateral surface, such as a door or side window. The cushion portions may be connected to an air source or to each other through the use of sail portions and supply tubes, which may be attached to the cushion portions by chemical bonding, adhesive bonding, sewing, RF welding, or any other suitable method. The cushion portions may have an interior coating of a urethane based substance, mated to a similar substance coating the exterior of a supply tube or sail portion. The cushion portions may then be RF welded to the sail portion or supply tube without restricting gas flow into the cushion portions. The sail portions and supply tubes are preferably fabricated from a material different from that used to form the cushion portions, so as to reduce the cost and weight of the safety restraint system.

    摘要: An airbag module for occupant restraint systems in vehicles has a pot-like housing part (10) made of sheet metal to the base (14) of which a gas generator is attached and to the circumferential wall (16) of which, extending upwards from the base (14), an airbag (26) and a covering cap (12) made of plastic are attached. The covering cap (12) has a supporting wall (17) that is in contact with the outside of the circumferential wall (16) of the housing part (10). The supporting wall (17) is provided with cutouts (20). On the free edge of the circumferential wall (16) of the housing part (10) facing away from the base (14), there are arranged hook-shaped metal tabs (18) which pass through the cutouts (20) of the supporting wall (17) of the covering cap (12) and which are bent on their outside in the direction toward the base (14) of the housing part (10). The free edge of the supporting wall (17) of the covering cap (12) facing the base (14) of the housing part (10) is held in contact with the circumferential wall (16) of the housing part (10) by means of bending tabs (22) that have been punched out of the housing part (10) and bent against the outside of the supporting wall (17).

    摘要: An airbag deployment rate sensor employs a tape or string that is wound on a spool and connected to the fabric of an airbag cushion so that as the airbag deploys, tape or string is pulled from the spool causing it to rotate. A brake is applied to the spool to prevent the buildup of momentum and so the tape and the spool will come to a rapid stop when the tape is no longer being withdrawn from the spool because the portion of the airbag to which the tape is connected has collided with an object. A sensor is positioned to detect rotation of the spool and so to monitor the rate at which tape or string is being withdrawn.

    摘要: The invention relates to a gas bag restraining device comprising a gas bag module which has a gas bag with a front wall upon which an occupant to be restrained can impact in a case of restraint. The front wall has a depression which is produced in that a center portion of the front wall is attached to the module and is prevented from moving when the gas bag is inflated. The gas bag restraining device further comprises a module cover closing a ring-shaped outlet opening of the gas bag module. The module cover has a central hole which is covered by a cap which is stationary during opening of said gas bag module. The module cover has an edge defining the central hole and opens, preferably tears, towards outside starting from the edge. A holding connection is provided between the edge and the cap which is released when said gas bag module is opened.

    摘要: An airbag module has at least two housing parts securely connected to each other by a mechanical catch connection. At least one catch hook is arranged on the first housing part and at least one tab with a corresponding catch opening is arranged in the second housing part. During the latching together of the two housing parts, the catch hook engages the corresponding catch opening. At least one ramp is arranged on the first housing part, opposite the catch hook, which ramp rises in the insertion direction of the second housing. The ramp rises in the direction in which the second housing part is moved toward the first housing part during assembly. During the assembly of the first housing part with the second housing part, the tab of the second housing part comes into contact with the ramp during the latching and is deflected by the ramp in the direction of the catch hook. The deflection of the tab results in the catch opening being deflected or pushed in the direction of the catch hook. The catch hook fully engages the catch opening with the greatest possible contact surface between catch hook and catch opening. Because of the ramp, during the latching a maximal contact surface is always achieved between catch opening and catch hook, it can be ensured that during the deployment of the airbag the ensuing forces are distributed on as large a surface as possible.

    摘要: A novel vehicle occupant restraining module is described. The retraining module includes an inflatable cushion having an inner surface and an outer surface. The inflatable cushion is capable of receiving inflation fluid from an inflation fluid source. A retaining collar is positioned adjacent a mouth of the cushion and about the inflation fluid source to retain the inflatable cushion in communication with the inflation fluid source. The retaining collar includes a flange that flares elliptically outward from the inflation fluid source. The retaining collar also includes an extension tab for preventing the cushion from contacting the inflation fluid source after inflation.

    摘要: An air bag (10) has a deflated condition stored in a container (40) in a vehicle and has an inflated condition. The air bag (10) when in the inflated condition has lower and upper sections (64, 74). The air bag (10) has a first portion (60) forming the lower section (64) of the air bag, and a second portion (70) forming the upper section (74). The air bag (10) includes a back panel (82) disposed farthest from a vehicle occupant (22) and a front panel (80) disposed closest to the occupant. The first portion (60) of the air bag (10) is folded into a compact shape and stored in a lower portion (62) of the container (40). The second portion (70) of the air bag (10) is rolled into a compact shape and stored in an upper portion (72) of the container (40). The second portion (70) inflates upward and unrolls in a direction away from the occupant (22) so that the front panel (80) is presented toward the occupant. The first portion (60) of the air bag (10) inflates before the second portion (70).
