A protector for protecting a targeted body part of the wearer is disclosed. The protector includes a mounting belt that is adapted to put on the body of the wearer, and at least one protective body that is adapted to cover the targeted body part when the protector is worn, the protective body extending from the mounting belt. The protective body includes a protective pad that substantially has a board shape, an airbag that is overlaid on an outer surface of the protective pad in a stacking manner and configured to be inflated with an inflation gas, and an outer cover that covers outer circumferences of the protective pad and the airbag as stacked one on another. At least a part of an outer circumferential edge of the airbag is joined to the protective pad so that the airbag will not float away from the protective pad when inflated.

A wearable airbag device (100) comprising at least one inflatable bag (10) including a first side (12) and a second side (14) defining a gas inflatable volume (V) therebetween. The at least one inflatable bag (10) comprises a plurality of airflow passages (40) defined between said first side (12) and second side (14).

The invention discloses a safety airbag comprising an upper airbag and a lower airbag. The upper airbag includes a back airbag and a head airbag laterally extending from a top of the back airbag. The lower airbag includes a waist airbag and a hip airbag extending downward from the waist airbag. The waist airbag can be folded, the hip airbag can be wound towards the waist airbag, and the waist airbag is superposed on the hip airbag. A fixing band is provided at each side of the hip airbag. After the low airbag is unfolded, the waist airbag is fitted to the waist, and the hip airbag protects the rear side and two sides of the hips and legs. The upper air inlet is in fluid communication with the lower air inlet, and the upper and lower airbags can be opened simultaneously to provide comprehensive protection for human body.

A system for providing safety assistance in a vehicle. The system includes a helmet and a first plurality of sensors in the helmet. The system further includes control circuitry that captures a first plurality of signals from the first plurality of sensors in the helmet. The first plurality of signals indicates first motion information corresponding to the helmet. The control circuitry further controls one of an inflation element or a hardening element disposed in a wearable garment based on a determination that the first motion information corresponding to the helmet exceeds a first predefined threshold.

Inflatable coveralls provide individuals, who fall frequently, with protection and independence. The coveralls consist of pads on the shoulders and hips to reduce the impact of a fall on the person. When worn and located underneath the fallen person, the coveralls can be inflated with air into a chair, creating a higher platform from which the person can more easily get up. This reduces the dependence these individuals have on a care-giver. Users can fasten the coveralls using velcros, instead of buttons or zippers, because it is easier to wear and they automatically open from the increase in air pressure of the inflated coveralls. Made of light-weight and air impermeable material, the inflatable coveralls pads the fall of individuals, and elevated the fallen individual so that they can more easily rise, allowing them to gain independence.

In one example, an airbag attachment unit (AAU) includes a body that defines an airbag compartment, an airbag disposed in the airbag compartment and configured to be selectively deployed from the airbag compartment, a closure mechanism configured to releasably close the airbag compartment, a tube at least partly disposed within the airbag compartment and connected to the airbag, and the tube having a quick-connect coupling mechanism configured to mate with a corresponding element of an airbag inflation system, and a portion of an attachment mechanism connected to the body and configured to releasably engage a corresponding portion of an attachment mechanism of an article of clothing such that the airbag attachment unit is detachably connectible to an exterior of the article of clothing.

A decubitus ulcers prevention garment for decreasing the skin pressure on a select body area of the population at risk for decubitus may be provided. The garment may be similar in shape to boxer briefs and composed of strategically mapped air cells for the patients' bilateral hips, proximal thighs and gluteal region wrapping posteriorly, targeting anatomic points including greater trochanteric, ischial tuberosities, posterior iliac spines, sacrum and coccyx. The air cell arrangement may allow for patterned inflation and deflation thereby off loading and loading particular areas. As air cells are cycled through inflation and deflation, skin pressure may be decreased thereby preventing focal pressure and local tissue ischemia resulting in necrosis.
