Airbag having multiple inflation chambers supported on a dash
An assembly for a vehicle includes a dash. The assembly includes an airbag supported by the dash and being inflatable to an inflated position. The airbag includes a knee chamber, a chest chamber supported by the knee chamber in the inflated position, and a head chamber supported by the chest chamber in the inflated position. The chest chamber is connected to the knee chamber at a lower seam that defines a lower fluid pathway. The head chamber is connected to the chest chamber at an upper seam that defines an upper fluid pathway. The assembly includes an inflator supported by the dash and being connected directly to the knee chamber.
CURTAIN AIRBAG FOR VEHICLE
A curtain airbag for a vehicle may include a curtain airbag cushion including a rear panel disposed at a door window side of the vehicle and a front panel disposed inside the vehicle, a protrusion formed by bending the curtain airbag cushion to protrude toward the inside of the vehicle, and connections for attaching upper and lower ends of a protruding part of the protrusion.
Side airbag for vehicles
Disclosed is a side airbag for vehicles including a first cushion coupled to one side of a seat, the first cushion extending from the side surface of the seat in a forward-rearward direction to cover a passenger at the side of the passenger when deployed, an inflator fixed to the seat, the inflator being configured to supply gas to the first cushion, a second cushion connected to the first cushion, the second cushion being bent from the first cushion toward the passenger and extending in a lateral direction, the second cushion being deployed by the gas supplied from the first cushion, and a support tether having one end fixedly coupled to the second cushion and the other end fixedly coupled to the seat, wherein the support tether is bent so as to be slidably coupled to the first cushion between one end and the other end thereof.
THREE-WHEELED VEHICLE AIRBAG
A three-wheeled vehicle includes a vehicle frame defining an occupant compartment. The vehicle frame has a front. The vehicle frame includes a first side extending vehicle-rearward from the front. The vehicle frame includes a second side extending vehicle-rearward from the front. The vehicle frame includes a bottom segment and a top segment. The top segment and the bottom segment extend along the front and the first side and the second side of the vehicle frame. The bottom segment and the top segment are tubular. The three-wheeled vehicle includes a first wheel at a midline of the front of the vehicle frame, a second wheel on the first side of the vehicle frame, and a third wheel on the second side of the vehicle frame. The three-wheeled vehicle includes an airbag supported by the bottom segment. The airbag is inflatable exterior to the vehicle frame upwardly toward the top segment from an uninflated position to an inflated position. The airbag in the uninflated position is elongated along the front and the first side and the second side of the vehicle frame.
Airbag for vehicle
An airbag for a vehicle is proposed. The airbag includes an inflator configured to generate gas, the airbag cushion connected to the inflator and configured to expand by the gas, and a variable vent provided in a first side of the airbag cushion and configured to control opening and closing state of a vent hole of the variable vent for gas escape from the airbag cushion in response to an operational condition of the airbag cushion.
Curtain Air-Bag Device
A curtain airbag device capable of preventing a cushion from damaging a front pillar trim or being caught by the front pillar trim upon deployed. A cushion 102 of a curtain airbag device 100 is inflated and deployed at a side wall of a vehicle interior to restrain an occupant. The curtain airbag device 100 includes: a cushion 102 having a bag shape and inflated and deployed on the vehicle front side of a passenger seat; and a first strap 148. The first strap 148 has one end 156 attached to a front pillar 104 and the other end 162 attached on the vehicle inner side of the cushion 102 in an elongate stored form. The first strap 148 moves to the vehicle inner side and is strained by inflation and deployment of the cushion 102 pushing out a front pillar trim 184 that covers the front pillar 104 to the vehicle inner side.

Passenger airbag module with transverse tether
A passenger airbag module is described. This passenger airbag module comprises an airbag cushion having an outer skin enclosing a chamber, a structural member comprising a housing into which the un-deployed airbag cushion is folded, and an inflator. The housing extends in transverse direction from a first end to a second end, and the fully deployed outer skin extends in the transverse direction from a third end to a fourth end. In order to improve the positioning of the deployed airbag, a transverse tether is provided. This transverse tether extends from a fifth end being connected to the outer skin in transverse direction to a sixth end being connected to at least one of the outer skin and the structural member.
Airbag apparatus
An airbag apparatus equipped in a vehicle seat having a seat cushion that forms a seating surface and a seat back that forms a backrest includes: an inflator that generates inflation gas; and an airbag housed within at least the seat back and deployed by inflation gas released from the inflator. The airbag includes a pair of left and right side chambers that deploy towards the front from a side portion of the seat back and an upper chamber that deploys above the head of a passenger. The airbag is rolled in a direction that intersects the longitudinal direction from a flat unfolded state prior to being housed or folded to be compressed into a long bar shape. A folded portion is formed by folding at least a location corresponding to the upper chamber of the long bar shaped airbag to house the folded portion above the seat back.
Seat cushion airbag apparatus
A seat cushion airbag apparatus includes a support portion, an airbag, and a fastening portion. The support portion is arranged below the cushion portion of a conveyance seat. The airbag is arranged between the cushion portion and the support portion and at the center portion in the width direction of the conveyance seat. The fastening portion fastens the airbag to the support portion and is disposed in the lower portion of the airbag in the inflated state at a position rearward of the center in the front-rear direction.
