20150076801 | SIDE AIRBAG DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - A side airbag device for vehicle includes: a gas generator that is disposed in a seat cushion side part in a vehicular seat and generates a gas for inflation and deployment by actuation; and a side airbag in which the inside thereof is partitioned into an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a up-down dividing tether having a connecting hole and the gas from the gas generator is supplied to the lower chamber. | 03-19-2015 |
20150076803 | VEHICLE SIDE AIR BAG APPARATUS AND VEHICLE SEAT - A vehicle side air bag apparatus includes: a bag that is housed within a side portion outside in a seat back in a vehicle width direction and inflates and expands to a vehicle front side of the side portion by supplying gas; an up-down partition that partitions the bag into lower and upper bag portions; a right-left partition which partitions the lower bag portion into left and right chambers, to which a right-left communication port is provided and which inhibits inflation of the lower bag portion in an upper and lower direction by being extended in the inflation and expansion state; an inflator provided in the upper bag portion; and a flow regulating portion that distributes gas into one of the left and right chambers and the upper bag portion and limits gas flow from the one chambers to the upper bag portion by a check valve portion. | 03-19-2015 |
20150137493 | VEHICLE SIDE AIRBAG DEVICE - A vehicle side airbag device includes: an inflator for generating gas by activation; a bag body provided in a side portion of a seatback of a vehicle seat and configured to be inflated and deployed toward a vehicle front side relative to the side portion when the gas is supplied thereinside; and a partition portion partitioning the bag body into a front bag portion and a rear bag portion to be inflated at a higher pressure than the front bag portion and having a thicker inflation width in a vehicle width direction than that of the front bag portion, the partition portion being overlapping with a central part of a shoulder of a sitting occupant in an inflated and deployed state in a side view. | 05-21-2015 |
20150158453 | VEHICLE FAR-SIDE AIRBAG APPARATUS - A vehicle far-side airbag apparatus includes an inflator that is provided in a side portion on a vehicle width direction center side of a seatback of a vehicle seat, and generates gas by being activated; and an airbag that is fixed to a seatback frame inside the side portion, and in which an occupant restraining portion inflates and deploys toward a vehicle front side of the side portion in response to the gas being supplied into the occupant restraining portion, and a rearward extending portion inflates and deploys farther to a vehicle rear side than the portion where the airbag is fixed, in response to the gas being supplied into the rearward extending portion. | 06-11-2015 |
20150197209 | OCCUPANT PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - An occupant protection system for a vehicle includes right and left vehicle seats; right and left inflators each mounted in a center-side side portion, as viewed in the vehicle width direction, of each of seat backs of the right and left vehicle seats; and right and left far-side airbags each mounted in the center-side side portion of each of the seat backs. The far-side airbag is partitioned into a front bag portion that protrudes toward a vehicle forward side of the side portion in an inflated and deployed state, and a rear bag portion located on a vehicle rearward side of the front bag portion. The rear bag portion is adapted to have an internal pressure higher than that of the front bag portion in the inflated and deployed state. The rear bag portion is adapted to be compressed between the seat backs when the vehicle seats approach each other. | 07-16-2015 |
20150367803 | FAR SIDE AIRBAG DEVICE - A far side airbag device comprising: a side airbag provided at a side section on a vehicle center side of a seatback, the side airbag comprising a rear inflation section and a front inflation section that inflates and deploys when supplied with gas through a communication path formed at a boundary with the rear inflation section; a fixing structure that fixes the side airbag to a seatback frame at the rear inflation section; and a tension cloth that receives tension and deploys accompanying inflation and deployment of the side airbag, wherein a vehicle front-rear direction front end side of the tension cloth is connected to the side airbag and a rear end side of the tension cloth is connected to the seatback frame, and in a deployed state, the tension cloth covers at least a portion of the rear inflation section as viewed from a side of the seatback. | 12-24-2015 |
20150367804 | SIDE AIRBAG DEVICE - A side airbag of a far side airbag device includes a rear inflation section that inflates and deploys on being supplied with gas and restrains at least rear portions of the chest and abdominal regions of a seated occupant, and a front inflation section that inflates and deploys by being supplied with gas through a through hole formed at a boundary between the rear inflation section and the front inflation section to restrain at least front portions of the chest and abdominal regions of the seated occupant. The far side airbag device includes a tension member that, on receiving tension and adopting a deployed state accompanying inflation and deployment of the side airbag, has a front end side connected to the rear inflation section, and a rear end side connected to a seatback frame. | 12-24-2015 |
20150367806 | VEHICULAR SIDE AIRBAG DEVICE - A side airbag, a rear bag portion in which an inflator is provided is inflated and deployed earlier than a front bag portion so the internal pressure in the rear bag portion is higher than that in the front bag portion. Thus, while a shoulder and rear portions of a chest and abdomen, which have a relatively high load tolerance, are restrained by the rear bag portion early, the front portions of the chest and abdomen, which have a relatively low load tolerance, are softly restrained by the front bag portion. In addition, a waist having load tolerance higher than that of the shoulder, the chest, and the abdomen of the seated occupant is restrained by a lower bag portion. When the internal pressure in the lower bag portion is increased, gas from the lower bag portion to the rear bag portion is restricted by a check valve. | 12-24-2015 |
