An airbag module has an airbag and a gas generator, between which a gas supply with a valve arrangement is arranged. The valve arrangement has an electrically actuatable pilot valve and a hydraulic transmission arrangement for amplifying a stroke action of the pilot valve.

A vehicle structure material strengthening system and a vehicle containing the same are described. The vehicle structure material strengthening system has at least one collision sensor, a processor, and a power supply. The collision sensor is suitable for being mounted on the vehicle. The processor is electrically connected to the collision sensor for receiving a collision signal from the collision sensor, and determines whether to transmit a power activation signal according to the collision signal. The power supply is electrically connected to the processor and the vehicle. When the collision signal is greater than or equal to a collision threshold, the processor transmits the power activation signal to the power supply, wherein the power supply transmits a circuit to the vehicle according to the power activation signal; or when the collision signal is less than the collision threshold, the processor does not transmit the power activation signal.

The present invention provides a fixing device for installing a pressure-type airbag sensor. The fixing device for installing a pressure-type airbag sensor includes a holder having a disk shape, a cover coupled to the holder and having a sensor unit disposed at an upper end thereof, and a connector housing disposed at a lower end of the cover. The cover may include a cover body having a disc shape. Reverse rotation prevention protrusions protruding outward may be formed at intervals at a plurality of positions on an outer circumference of the cover body. Rotation guide protrusions may protrude from the plurality of positions of the cover body, and corners thereof may be formed in a predetermined curvature. The rotation guide protrusions may be formed to correspond to the number of rotation locking parts formed on an outer wall of the holder.

A life protection device system is proposed. More particularly, the life protection device system includes: a shock absorbing device provided with a shock absorbing part, a shock absorber, and an airbag that are mounted on a moving object so as to absorb impact to protect the life of passengers in a crash or collision of the moving object; a measuring device detecting the shock applied to the moving object; a controller generating a preset driving control signal according to the detected shock of the measuring device; and an artificial intelligence part notifying of an occurrence of a disaster and asking for help from a designated disaster center in response to the driving control signal of the controller, wherein the impact on the passengers is minimized even when the moving object such as a drone, autonomous aircraft, and autonomous vehicle crashes or collides, or falls into a river or sea.

From a set of point data, a set of scattered rays is constructed. From the set of scattered rays, a set of ray slopes is computed. The set of ray slopes is mapped to a corresponding set of trigonometric functions. Using an optimization method, a parameter of the set of trigonometric functions is selected. Using an inverse of the set trigonometric functions, a vehicle mass corresponding to the set of point data is computed. Based on the vehicle mass, a threshold braking distance of a collision avoidance system of the vehicle is adjusted, the threshold braking distance comprising a distance from an object predicted to collide with the vehicle. By braking the vehicle at least the threshold braking distance from the object, a predicted collision between the vehicle and the object is avoided.

A vehicle includes a floor and a roof. A panel is removably attached to and supported by the floor. The panel is designed to engage a personal mobility device. An airbag housing is supported by the roof and moveably relative to the roof along a cross-vehicle axis and along a vehicle-longitudinal axis. An airbag is supported by the airbag housing. The airbag is inflatable to an inflated position that extends from the airbag housing towards the panel.

An occupant protection device includes an airbag which is deployed and inflated with an amount of protrusion from a storage position to a rear side in an inflation completed state in a large protrusion amount mode and a small protrusion amount mode, and the airbag includes a bag body and a tether. The tether is connected to a length adjustment unit. The bag body has a tubular inflation portion curved in a substantially U shape from the storage position toward the tether connection portion. A shape of the bag body in the large protrusion amount mode is defined such that the tether connection portion is further moved rearward with respect to the inlet port on the inner peripheral surface side, as compared with the case of the small protrusion amount mode.

A device and a method for controlling autonomous driving are provided The device includes non-transitory memory storing instructions executable to control an autonomous driving; and a processor configured to execute the instructions to determine whether a collision has occurred using an acceleration sensor mounted on an airbag control unit during the autonomous driving, determine a collision direction based on a change in acceleration of three axes obtained by the acceleration sensor, and perform an emergency action by controlling at least one of longitudinal direction travel or transverse direction travel based on the collision direction.

An occupant protection device for a vehicle includes a collision predictor, a main airbag, a seat, a sub-airbag, and a deployment controller. The collision predictor is configured to predict a collision of the vehicle. The main airbag is configured to deploy toward an occupant from a front of the vehicle when a collision of the vehicle is predicted by the collision predictor. The seat allows the occupant to be seated, and is movable in a front-back direction of the vehicle. The sub-airbag is accommodated in an upper part of the seat, and configured to deploy downward from above the occupant. The deployment controller is configured to, when a collision of the vehicle is predicted by the collision predictor, cause the sub-airbag to deploy from the upper part of the seat and subsequently cause the main airbag to deploy.

A seat belt arrangement for a motor vehicle, with at least one seat belt for the protection of a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat; at least one inflatable gas bag arranged on the seat belt for protecting the vehicle occupant. The gas bag includes a passage through which the seat belt extends and to which at least one inflatable chamber of the gas bag adjoins, wherein during or after inflation of the gas bag at least a sub-section of a wall of the passage presses indirectly and/or directly against the seat belt such that the gas bag couples to the seat belt and follows an extension movement of the seat belt and hence a movement of the vehicle occupant, and wherein the seat belt is at least partly surrounded by a casing element at least within the passage.
