VEHICLE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18343742 titled 'VEHICLE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a vehicle front passenger seat airbag device. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The device includes an airbag body that is inflated and deployed by gas from an inflator.
  • It also includes a flow regulating cloth in a tubular shape with opening portions on the left and right sides, allowing gas to enter the interior of the airbag body.
  • The flow regulating cloth has an inlet port on its peripheral surface for introducing the gas from the inflator.
  • The cloth is designed to distribute the gas from the inlet port through the opening portions towards the left and right sides of the airbag body.
  • A sewn portion of the flow regulating cloth, located either towards the upper or lower portion side than the inlet port, is sewn to the airbag body along a left-right direction.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Vehicle safety systems: The airbag device can be used in front passenger seats of vehicles to enhance safety during accidents by providing effective inflation and deployment of the airbag.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Gas distribution: The flow regulating cloth ensures that the gas from the inflator is evenly distributed towards the left and right sides of the airbag body, improving the effectiveness of the airbag deployment.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced safety: The device improves the inflation and deployment of the airbag, potentially reducing injuries to front passengers during accidents.
  • Efficient gas distribution: The flow regulating cloth ensures that the gas is evenly distributed, maximizing the effectiveness of the airbag deployment.


Original Abstract Submitted

A vehicle front passenger seat airbag device comprises an airbag body is inflated and deployed by gas ejected from an inflator, a flow regulating cloth that is provided in a tubular shape including opening portions opening at left and right sides into an interior of the airbag body, that includes an inlet port at a peripheral surface of the flow regulating cloth for introducing the gas ejected from the inflator, and that is configured to distribute the gas introduced from the inlet port through the opening portions toward left and right sides of the interior of the airbag body, and a sewn portion configured by at least one portion of the flow regulating cloth of a portion further toward an upper portion side or a portion further toward a lower portion side than the inlet port, being sewn to the airbag body along a left-right direction.
