Example devices, systems and methods for airbag anti-inflation are described. An example device includes an elongated member having a first end and a second end. The example device also includes a buckle retainer coupled to the first end of the elongated member. The device also includes a cutting member coupled to the second end of the elongated member. The cutting member includes a bottom section substantially perpendicular to the elongated member and a top section extending vertically from the bottom section. The cutting member also includes a through-hole defined by an interior surface of the bottom section of the cutting member and an interior surface of the top section of the cutting member.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for controlling airbag activation status at a motor vehicle. Aspects of the invention can detect if a passenger in a motor vehicle is traveling in a less safe position, for example, with his/her feet on the dashboard. If so, an airbag can be deactivated and the passenger can be notified to modify his/her position. Based on images from a first camera, a control unit detects an object in the passenger seat as a human adult or not a human adult. Based on images from a second camera, the control unit detects the presence of legs/feet in a foot well or detects that legs/feet are not present in the footwell. If an object is detected as not a human adult or not having legs/feet in the foot well, the control unit can deactivate an airbag deployment device.

Systems and methods are provided for dynamically protecting transportable articles in vehicles. A system for dynamically protecting a transportable article in a vehicle may include one or more processors and non-volatile memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to determine at least one of a characteristic or a trait of the transportable article; detect, based on sensed data, an emergency condition; select one or more article protection components based on (i) the at least one of the characteristic or the trait of the transportable article, and (ii) the detected emergency condition; and in response to detecting the emergency condition, deploy the selected one or more article protection components to protect the transportable article.

A self-adaptive air bag blocking device is disclosed. The device includes an air bag, a first gas conveying pipe and a second gas conveying pipe, wherein an air chamber is formed in the air bag, a ring-shaped abutting surface is formed on the peripheral side of the air bag, so that the abutting surface abuts against a mouth of a container. The first gas conveying pipe is communicated with the air chamber and the outer part of the air bag, so that air enters the air chamber to enable the air bag to expand. The abutting surface is elastically deformed and tightly abuts against the inner wall of the container to form air-tight abutment, and the second gas conveying pipe is arranged on the air bag, so that air enters the container through the second gas conveying pipe, and thus the working liquid is discharged.
