Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrzeugsitz gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. The invention relates to a vehicle seat according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Aus dem Serienfahrzeugbau ist es bekannt, Fahrzeugsitze derart auszugestalten, dass sie einen darauf sitzenden Insassen bei einem Seitenaufprall vor Verzögerungsspitzen und damit erhöhten Belastungen schützen. Es ist bekannt, dass zwischen dem Insassen und dem sich aus der Seitenwange des Fahrzeugsitzes entfaltenden Airbags ein trennender Abstand vorhanden sein kann. Dann kann es auf Grund der Trägheit des Insassen bei einem Seitenaufprall dazu kommen, dass der Insasse nicht früh genug gegen den sich aufblähenden Airbag anliegt. From the production of standard vehicles, it is known to design vehicle seats such that they protect a seated occupant in a side impact from deceleration peaks and thus increased loads. It is known that a separating distance may be present between the occupant and the deploying from the side cheek of the vehicle seat airbags. Then, due to the inertia of the occupant in a side impact, it may happen that the occupant does not rest against the inflating airbag early enough.
Um dem entgegen zu wirken, ist es bereits aus der
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht nunmehr darin, eine aktive Beihilfe des Sitzes für eine frühe Ankopplung des Insassen an das Fahrzeug bei einem Seitencrash zu schaffen. The object of the invention is now to provide an active aid of the seat for an early coupling of the occupant to the vehicle in the event of a side crash.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Merkmalen der nachgeordneten Ansprüche. The object is achieved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments result from the features of the subordinate claims.
Der Kern der Erfindung besteht darin, bereits in einer frühen Phase des Seitenaufpralls einen Energieabbau durch den aufgeblasenen Luftsack zu ermöglichen. Hierfür wird in dem Fahrzeugsitz, vorzugsweise zwischen dem Insassen und der Karosserieseitenwand eine flexible Sitzstruktur vorgesehen. Diese wenigstens zwei Strukturteile, die durch das Entfalten des Luftsacks fächerartig zueinander aufgespannt werden. Dadurch gelangt das äußere Strukturteil relativ früh im Verlauf des Seitenaufpralls in Anlage zur The gist of the invention is to enable energy dissipation through the inflated airbag already at an early stage of the side impact. For this purpose, a flexible seat structure is provided in the vehicle seat, preferably between the occupant and the body side wall. These at least two structural parts which are fan-shaped by the unfolding of the airbag to each other. As a result, the outer structural part comes into contact relatively early in the course of the side impact
Karosserieseitenwand, während das innere Strukturteil den Abstand zwischen Insassen und Polsterung schließt. Dadurch ergibt sich ein nahezu geschlossener Kraftpfad. Der Insasse wird sehr früh an die Fahrzeugbewegung angekoppelt, so das die aus der Verzögerung des Fahrzeug resultierenden Kraftspitzen auf den Insassen vermieden werden. Body side wall, while the inner structure part closes the gap between occupant and upholstery. This results in a nearly closed power path. The occupant is coupled very early to the vehicle movement, so that the resulting from the deceleration of the vehicle force peaks are avoided on the occupants.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können zwischen dem inneren Strukturteil und dem Insassen Deformationselemente vorgesehen sein, wodurch ein zusätzlicher Energieabbau möglich wird. In a preferred embodiment of the invention may be provided between the inner structural part and the occupant deformation elements, whereby an additional energy reduction is possible.
Die Deformationselemente können dabei in die Polsterung integriert werden, so dass kein zusätzlicher Bauraum benötigt wird. The deformation elements can be integrated into the padding, so that no additional space is needed.
In einer Ausgestaltungsform der Erfindung können die beiden Strukturteile mit ihrem in Fahrtrichtung gesehenen hinteren Ende an den Rahmen des Fahrzeugsitzes angeschlossen sein. In one embodiment of the invention, the two structural parts can be connected with their seen in the direction of travel rear end to the frame of the vehicle seat.
Ferner können die beiden Strukturteile mit ihrem in Fahrtrichtung gesehenen vorderen Ende mittels einer Sollbruchstelle verbunden sein, die beim Entfalten des Luftsacks des Airbagmoduls definiert versagt. Furthermore, the two structural parts can be connected with their seen in the direction of travel front end by means of a predetermined breaking point, which fails defined when unfolding the airbag of the airbag module.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung werden im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen: Further advantageous embodiments of the invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing. Showing:
