if T is greater than 2s, on the basis of considering system delay, connecting 3 inflation actuating mechanisms and 3 air pumps, further accelerating the inflation speed, judging whether the T of the next cycle is between T and 2s after updating the current pressure P of the air bag, if so, continuing to work by the 3 inflation actuating mechanisms, and if not, judging the interval of the T at the moment. If T is less than or equal to 1s, 1 inflation execution working unit is switched on, the current pressure P of the air bag is transmitted to the current pressure P building unit of the air bag after being updated, the circulation is realized until the current pressure P of the air bag reaches 0.9-1.1 times of the target pressure Po, the air pump and the novel shape memory alloy valve are closed, and the system stops working; if T is more than 1s and less than or equal to 2s, 2 inflation executing mechanisms are switched on, after the current pressure P of the air bag is updated, whether T of the next cycle is within 1s and less than T and less than 2s is judged, if the T of the next cycle is within 1s and less than T and less than 2s, the second-stage inflation executing mechanism continues to work, if the T of the next cycle is not within 1s and less than T, the 1 inflation executing mechanism is switched on to work, the cycle is realized until the current pressure P of the air bag reaches 0.9-1.1 times of the target pressure Po, and the air pump and the novel shape memory alloy valve are closed.
b. If the current air bag pressure P is more than 1.1Po, the air discharging system works, on the basis of considering the system delay, the air discharging actuating mechanism is connected, and when the air bag pressure is updated to be 0.9-1.1 times of the target pressure Po, the air discharging system stops working.
