A front passenger seat airbag includes an attachment portion provided on a front end side when inflation has been completed, an occupant protection portion provided on a rear end side to protect the occupant when inflation has been completed, and a cavity portion formed at an intermediate portion between the attachment portion and the occupant protection portion in a manner of penetrating the front passenger seat airbag substantially along a left-right direction. A left edge side and/or a right edge side of the occupant protection portion when inflation has been completed is formed with a protruding region protruding rearward and outward with respect to a central region. At least one of upper and lower edges of an occupant side panel is coupled to an end of the peripheral wall panel. An outer peripheral panel portion of the panel portion is a concave portion in a flatly deployed state.

A vehicle with a head airbag integrated into the vehicle body, which is covered so as to be visually screened by a headliner that has a headliner opening for a functional component, in particular a reading light, wherein a fastening arrangement is provided on the reverse side of the headliner facing away from a passenger compartment, via which the functional component is secured. At least one shield element is associated with the fastening arrangement and is arranged between the head airbag and the fastening arrangement in a head airbag deployment direction, so that when an airbag deploys, a region of the fastening arrangement having interfering contours is shielded against the deploying head airbag.

A vehicle seat and an airbag system, the seat having a backrest and a squab, extending from the backrest in a longitudinal direction, the backrest extending in height from the squab at a first lower position to a second upper position arranged proximal to shoulders of an occupant in a seated position, the airbag system having an airbag to receive inflating gas from an inflator to inflate the airbag, in which the airbag includes an upper region that extends over a head of the occupant in the seated position and a lower region that extends between a first and second side of the backrest and around a mid-section of the seated occupant, the airbag system having a tether system interconnecting the seat at the second upper position of the backrest and airbag to restrain the lower region of the airbag in the inflated configuration in the longitudinal direction.

A vehicle includes a passenger compartment having a roof structure having a front header, a pair of side headers and a rear header. A headliner is disposed beneath the roof structure. At least one inflatable bladder is disposed along at least one of the front header, the pair of side headers and the rear header. The at least one inflatable bladder is connected to an inflator. A rib structure is disposed adjacent to the at least one inflatable bladder. The inflatable bladder inflates to a maximum height of 12 cm below the at least one of the front header, the pair of side headers and the rear header.

An assembly for a vehicle includes a dash. The assembly includes a seat having a seatback and a head restraint extending upwardly from the seatback. The assembly includes an airbag supported by the seatback. The airbag is inflatable from the seatback toward the dash in a seat-rearward direction to an inflated position. The airbag includes an upper portion adjacent the head restraint and pair of lobes extending from the upper portion along the head restraint in a seat-forward direction in the inflated position. The head restraint is between the lobes in the inflated position.

An air bag cushion for a vehicle. A tether reinforcing fabric coupled to a tether seam portion of main cushion is used to allow the tether reinforcing fabric to inflate with the main cushion when the main cushion inflates, and the inflating tether reinforcing fabric forms an auxiliary chamber between the main cushion and the tether reinforcing fabric, and the auxiliary chamber of the tether reinforcing fabric supports the head of a passenger in a front passenger seat in the event of a crash, thereby preventing the rotation of the passenger’s head of the front passenger seat and by efficiently protecting the safety of the front passenger.

A seat airbag for a vehicle is provided. The seat airbag is installed at a lateral side of a seat back to allow a cushion thereof to inflate forward. A front part of the cushion is divided into a head chamber disposed at an upper level, a chest chamber disposed at an intermediate level and a pelvis chamber disposed at a lower level. The airbag includes first to third tethers, which form a single cord connecting the chambers to one another, and are provided in the airbag to protect a passenger while surrounding the passenger.

An assembly includes a first seat and a second seat spaced from the first seat. The assembly includes an airbag supported by the first seat. The airbag is inflatable to an inflated position between the seats. The airbag has a main chamber, a pair secondary chambers supported by the main chamber, and a tether releasably connected to the secondary chambers. The secondary chambers are maintained by the tether in an undeployed position relative to the main chamber and the secondary chambers are releasable by the tether to a deployed position in a cross-vehicle direction relative to the main chamber. The assembly includes a computer including a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to identify that an occupant is seated in the first seat, identify that an occupant is seated in the second seat and release the tether based on the identification of the occupants seated seats.

A seat airbag apparatus for a vehicle and a method of controlling the operation thereof, includes side cushions deployed from the seatback, front cushions configured to be deployed from the side cushions, and inflators for the side cushions and inflators for the front cushions. The deployment operation of the side cushions and the deployment operation of the front cushions are respectively controlled depending on a normal seating mode and a relax mode of an occupant and a side collision and a front collision of the vehicle.

The airbag includes a bag body that deploys and inflates to cover the interior side of the window, and a strap having an upper end attached to an upper window frame, a lower end attached to a lateral frame, and an intermediate portion connected to the body. The strap has an insertion portion, which is inserted through the insertion hole of the body, on the intermediate portion, so that the part from the upper end to the insertion portion is an outer side portion, which is placed on the outside of the body in the inflated state, and the part from the insertion portion to the lower end is an inner side portion. When the inflation of the body is completed, the inner side portion is pressed to the inside of the vehicle by the front edge side inflation portion, and generates tension in the strap and the body.
