The present disclosure relates to a passenger airbag. The passenger airbag according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a main panel, and side panels arranged on both sides of the main panel, wherein the main panel includes a contact part to be in contact with a head of a passenger when the passenger airbag is deployed, and a folded portion partitioning the contact part such that both sides of the contact part protrudes as the contact parts is toward both sides.

A head and neck support and protection device includes an arm that is pivotably mounted, at a first end, to a support and has at a second end a slidably-mounted element connected to a helmet clip. The helmet clip engages a helmet pin. A resistance block transfers energy into a vehicle chassis when the arm hits the resistance block. The slidably-mounted element slides out of the arm, in a controlled manner, when conditions indicating a crash have been met.

A front head/torso airbag (10) of a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a cover surface (12) and a baffle surface (14) forming a contact face for the vehicle occupant (22) which merges Into the cover surface (12). In the inflated state of the airbag (10) being in the mounted position, the baffle surface (14) includes a central surface portion and laterally adjacent thereto at feast one bulge (20) projecting from the central surface portion for laterally protecting the head (24).

The invention describes a side airbag (2) of a vehicle occupant restraint system (10) provided to be mounted on a vehicle seat (4) and having at least one fabric cut (6, 7) and one gas cushion (8), wherein the side airbag (2) includes at least three fastening points (12, 14, 16) for mounting on the vehicle seat (4), in particular on a vehicle seat frame, wherein at least a first fastening point (12) and a second fastening point (14) are arranged in the at least one fabric cut (6, 7), wherein the first and second fastening points (12, 14) are arranged, in a condition mounted on the vehicle seat (4), in an upper area of the side airbag (2) and in a vehicle seat transverse direction (Q) are arranged at a distance (a) from each other. The invention also describes a vehicle occupant restraint system (10) comprising a seat-integrated airbag module (30) and a vehicle seat (4) comprising a seat-integrated airbag module (30) each of which comprises a side airbag (2) of this type.

The disclosure relates to a vehicle occupant restraint system for a motor vehicle, comprising a central airbag installed in the area of a vehicle roof liner between two vehicle seats. At least one holding arrangement is fastened by a first end to the airbag and by a second end to a vehicle structure such that the holding arrangement retains the airbag in an inflated state in a holding position in which the airbag can laterally support a vehicle occupant.

The disclosure relates to a front airbag for mounting on a vehicle roof, comprising an airbag mouth for filling an inflatable airbag volume with generator gas which in a mounted condition of the front airbag faces the vehicle roof, and comprising an airbag panel which defines a shape of the inflatable airbag volume and, in the mounted and inflated condition of the front airbag, includes a frontal impact surface for a vehicle occupant to be protected, wherein at a lateral edge of the frontal impact surface a support element protruding from the frontal impact surface toward the vehicle roof is provided for contacting and laterally stabilizing an occupant's head. Moreover, the disclosure also relates to a front airbag module and a vehicle comprising such front airbag.

An apparatus and method for helping to protect occupants of an autonomous vehicle in the event of a collision. An airbag has a stored, pre-deployment condition in a vehicle roof. The airbag is deployable downward toward the vehicle floor in front of a vehicle occupant. The airbag includes an upper portion for receiving the occupants head and torso. A lower portion extends downward and forward from the upper portion. The lower portion is for receiving the occupants lower legs.

A seat airbag for a vehicle is installed in a side part of a seat back and an airbag cushion thereof is deployed forward. A front portion of the cushion is divided into a head chamber disposed at an upper location, a chest chamber disposed at a central location and a pelvis chamber disposed at a lower location. The airbag protects a vehicle occupant while wrapping around the occupant with use of a first tether to a fourth tether that are integrally formed into a single string and connect the respective chambers to each other.

A seat-mounted airbag device may include a seatback cushion built in a seatback of a vehicle. The seatback cushion includes side portions configured to be deployed from both side peripheral portions of a seat to a front of the seat to protect sides of an occupant when deployed by gas supplied by an inflator into the seatback cushion. Chest portions of the seatback cushion extend from front ends of the side portions to surround a chest of the occupant to protect the chest of the occupant. The airbag device includes one or more seatback tethers connected to a seat frame and mounted in the seat. When the seatback cushion is deployed, the seatback tethers are deployed along with the seatback cushion to support the chest in a top-bottom direction thereof, thereby supporting an upper body of the occupant.

An airbag device of the disclosure includes an airbag module that is installed in a central region of a steering wheel of a vehicle, and that accommodates an airbag that can deploy behind the steering wheel when a driver is seated in the driver's seat. The airbag module has an airbag inflation control unit that controls an inflation direction of the airbag in such a manner as to allow the airbag to inflate above the airbag module, after the airbag has inflated in such a direction as to abut on the driver's chest at the time of deployment of the airbag.
