AIRBAG DEVICE AND PASSENGER PROTECTION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240123936 titled 'AIRBAG DEVICE AND PASSENGER PROTECTION DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an airbag device with a unique design that allows for inflation and deployment towards the seat front side, passing through a gap between the vehicle ceiling and the passenger's head.

  • The airbag device has a front-rear chamber and an airbag main body.
  • The front-rear chamber includes left and right front-rear extending portions that inflate towards the seat front side.
  • A connecting portion in the front-rear chamber connects the front-end portions of the extending portions.
  • Gas is supplied to the airbag main body through a communication hole in the connecting portion.
  • The airbag main body passes through a gap between the vehicle ceiling and the passenger's head during inflation and deployment.

Original Abstract Submitted

an airbag device has an airbag. the airbag has a front-rear chamber and an airbag main body. the front-rear chamber has a left and right pair of front-rear extending portions that pass by respective left and right sides of a head of a passenger and inflate and deploy toward the seat front side, and a connecting portion connecting front end portions of the pair of front-rear extending portions in a seat left-right direction. gas is supplied to the airbag main body via a communication hole positioned at a seat rear side of the connecting portion of the front-rear chamber that has inflated and deployed. owing to inflation and deployment of the front-rear chamber, the airbag main body passes through a gap between a ceiling of the vehicle and the head from the seat rear side toward the seat front side, and thereafter, inflates and deploys toward the seat rear side.
