A vehicle bumper comprising at least one part made of resilient material, in the interior of which there is provided at least one marking fluid cell with an opening to the exterior. The opening is closed by a closure device which, under the effect of a pressure applied with a determined intensity, can open up the opening, allowing the marking fluid to access the exterior of the cell through which the marking fluid can flow, and also comprising a securing element configured to secure the at least one part on the vehicle.

An attenuation system is connected to a structural portion and includes a first portion, a second portion, and an actuator. The actuator is configured to move the attenuation system between a retracted position and an extended position. The first portion is moved outward relative to the second portion during movement of the attenuation system from the retracted position to the extended position.

A rescue system includes an inflatable rescue cushion at the bottom of an automobile, which includes air cushion storage chambers in front, back, left, and right of the bottom of the automobile. A gas generator is correspondingly arranged in the air cushion storage chamber in each position, for inflating and opening air cushions in the corresponding air cushion storage chambers to form a front, back, left and right air cushion. The system also includes an electronic early warning and central processing collaboration part, which includes an external water level sensor, central collaborative processing unit, first grade early warning signal light, and a switch. The external water level sensor is connected to the central collaborative processing unit, which is connected to the warning signal light, the gas generator, and the automobile computer board. The switch is positioned in the automobile and is connected to the gas generators.

An apparatus includes a center component defining a center chamber therein and first and second side components defining first and second chambers therein, respectively. The first and second side components are coupled to opposing ends of the center component with the first and second chambers in fluid communication with the center chamber. The center, first side and second side components are configured to extend substantially across a width of a vehicle. The apparatus further includes first, second and third pressure sensors in communication with the first, second and center chambers, respectively.

An airbag apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes an airbag, a collision determiner, an airbag deployment controller, and a pulling device. The airbag is configured to be deployed forward of a vehicle body front of the vehicle. The collision determiner is configured to establish a pre-crash determination in a case where a collision probability is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold. The airbag deployment controller is configured to give to an inflator a command to supply deployment gas to the airbag and deploy the airbag, in response to the pre-crash determination. The pulling device is configured to pull, rearward of the vehicle, a collision portion with which a collision object is to collide or vicinity of the collision portion on a front surface of the airbag so as to form a recessed portion configured to restrain the collision object.

An airbag apparatus includes an airbag configured to be deployed forward of a front of a vehicle body of a vehicle; a collision determiner configured to establish a pre-crash determination when a collision probability with a collision object is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold; and an airbag deployment controller configured to, in response to the pre-crash determination, give to an inflator a command to supply deployment gas to the airbag and deploy the airbag. The airbag includes front air chambers provided in a front portion of the airbag and disposed in a vehicle width direction, a coupling member configured to couple front end portions of the front air chambers in the vehicle width direction, and a rear air chamber disposed between rear portions of the front air chambers and a front end portion of the vehicle body, and communicating with an inside of each front air chamber.

An airbag apparatus includes an airbag configured to be deployed forward of a front of a vehicle body of a vehicle, a collision determiner configured to establish a pre-crash determination when a collision probability is a predetermined threshold or higher, an airbag deployment controller configured to, in response to the pre-crash determination, give to an inflator a command to supply deployment gas to the airbag and deploy the airbag, a vent controller configured to open and close a vent passage configured to discharge the deployment gas from the airbag, and an energy absorption state detector configured to detect a state of energy absorption by the airbag. The vent controller is configured to open the vent passage at an early stage of collision with a collision object, and subsequently, reduce an opening degree of the vent passage when the energy absorption state detector detects a completion of energy absorption.

An airbag apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes an airbag configured to be deployed forward of a vehicle body front of the vehicle, a collision determiner configured to establish a pre-crash determination in a case where a collision probability with a human body or an object other than a human body is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold, and an airbag deployment controller configured to deploy the airbag in response to the pre-crash determination. The airbag includes a slit portion formed by recessing a front surface rearward of the vehicle, and branches divided by the slit portion. The airbag apparatus further includes a coupling member configured to couple the branches to each other, and a coupling member disabling unit configured to break coupling of the branches by the coupling member in a case where a collision with the human body is predicted.
