The air bag device of the embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is the figure that shows the air bag device of the present invention the 1st embodiment.
As shown in Figure 1, the air bag device of the present invention the 1st embodiment is the safety device that protection rides on the co-pilot seat passenger when car accedent.But, the most crucial technology of the present invention is as described later shown in Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, to form line of rupture 57 in gas generator 50, the opening and closing device 40 of regulating the gas discharge rate of airbag cushion 30 by handle directly is incorporated into the fracture section 55 that is formed with this line of rupture 57, thereby make when gas generator 50 starts, opening and closing device 40 separates from gas generator 50, raising launches to press to airbag cushion 30 responsibility and the reliability of regulating, therefore, the gas generator 50 that is formed with line of rupture 57 in fracture section 55 is applied to airbag device for drivers, the air bag devices such as knee airbag device, can easily change enforcement by the person of ordinary skill in the field.In the following description, only take the co-pilot seat air bag device describes as example.
The air bag device of the present invention the 1st embodiment comprises safety air bag shell 10, charging blower 20, airbag cushion 30, opening and closing device 40 and gas generator 50.
Safety air bag shell 10 is taken in airbag cushion 30, is installed on described automobile.
Charging blower 20 produces gas, and to airbag cushion 30 supplies, the expansion so that airbag cushion 30 can expand, protect described passenger.That is, from charging blower 20, produce gas, after flowing into airbag cushion 30, airbag cushion 30 expansion of expanding by means of this air pressure, with cushion effect protection passenger.
