Abstract

The air cushion curtain (LKV) is for the protection of an occupant in a vehicle. When not in use it is stored in a hollow bow-shaped holder (1) fitted beneath the roof. In the event of an impact it is released andinflated in response to a signal from sensors in the front and rear bumpers. The inflated curtain drops in front of the occupant to form a main section (4) and a side section (5) with the contact area (6) at a maximum distance of 15 cm from the head and face. ADVANTAGE - Air bag which can be installed at low cost into older vehicles.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Luft-Kissen-Vorhang, der sich bei einem Crash-Aufprall-Vorgang entfaltet, ausgelöst durch Sensoren in der Bug- und Heckstoßstange, die über Kontaktkabel auf Druckluftkapseln einwirken.The invention relates to an air pillow curtain, which is in a Crash impact process unfolded, triggered by sensors in the Front and rear bumpers, which are connected to compressed air capsules via contact cables act.

Im Bruchteil von Sekunden fällt der L.K.V. herunter und wird während­ dessen aufgeblasen, bzw. aufgebläht. Der L.K.V. bildet somit ein Polster, das den nach vorne schnellenden Oberkörper des/-r Fahrzeug­ insassen auffängt und somit insbesondere den Kopf vor Verletzungen schützt.The L.K.V. down and will during its inflated or inflated. The L.K.V. thus imagines Upholstery that supports the upper body of the vehicle catches occupants and thus especially the head from injuries protects.

Die Konstruktion des L.K.V. mit Seitenteilen verhindert ein Wegkippen des Oberkörpers zur Seite und stellt hiermit einen besonders wirk­ samen Schutz dar. The construction of the L.K.V. with side parts prevents tipping away of the upper body to the side and thus makes it particularly effective protection.  

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, die Zustände auf unseren Straßen werden von Jahr zu Jahr schlimmer. Mit steigendem Verkehrsaufkommen nehmen die Unfälle zu, und gerade bei Massen­ karambolagen ist ein alarmierender Anstieg schwerer und tödlicher Ver­ letzungen zu verzeichnen. Daran haben bislang weder die Anschnallpflicht noch die serienmäßige Kopfstütze etwas verändern können.Dear Sirs and Madames, the conditions on our streets are getting worse every year. With Accidents are increasing in traffic volume, especially among the masses Carom is an alarming increase in serious and fatal ver to be recorded. So far, neither have to wear a seat belt can still change the standard headrest.

Zur Zeit wird von der Automobilindustrie die allgemeine Einführung eines Airbags propagiert, doch hat dieser m. E. einige entscheidende Nachteile:The general introduction of a Airbags propagated, but this m. E. Some key disadvantages:

  • 1. Er ist nur für den Fahrer vorgesehen; alle anderen Fahrzeuginsassen sind nicht zusätzlich geschützt.1. It is only intended for the driver; all other vehicle occupants are not additionally protected.
  • 2. Er ist nur für Neuwagen vorgesehen. Eine Nachrüstung bei älteren Fahrzeugen wird nach Pressemeldungen um die 3.000.- DM kosten.2. It is only intended for new cars. Retrofitting older ones According to press releases, vehicles will cost around 3,000 DM.
  • 3. Da er in der Lenksäule installiert wird, bleibt der Oberkörper und insbesondere der Kopf beweglich; der Kopf legt noch ca. 40 cm bis zum Kontakt mit dem Airbag zurück. Somit sind die Verletzungen im Bereich der Nackenwirbel weiterhin möglich.3. Since it is installed in the steering column, the upper body and remains especially the head is flexible; the head lays about 40 cm to the Contact with the airbag back. So the injuries are in the area the neck vertebrae still possible.
  • 4. Der Airbag bietet keinen Schutz gegen Glas- oder Metallsplitter, da er von unten/vorne kommt und der obere Bereich frei bleibt.4. The airbag offers no protection against glass or metal splinters because it comes from below / in front and the upper area remains free.
  • 5. Bei nicht-frontalen Zusammenstößen entstehen Zentrifugalkräfte, die den Oberkörper und den Kopf seitlich gegen Fenster, Metallstreben u.ä. wer­ fen können, da der Airbag lediglich nach vorne schützt.5. In the case of non-frontal collisions, centrifugal forces develop which Upper body and head laterally against windows, metal struts, etc. who because the airbag only protects to the front.

Aufgrund dieser Probleme des Airbags beschäftige ich mich seit längerer Zeit mit der Entwicklung eines Systems, das diese Nachteile ausschließt. Die von mir vorgeschlagene und hiermit zum Patent angemeldete Lösung be­ zeichne ich als "Luft-Kissen-Vorhang mit seitlichen Polstern (Kürzel: L.K.V.)".Because of these problems with the airbag, I have been occupied for a long time Time to develop a system that eliminates these drawbacks. The solution I proposed and hereby patent pending be I draw as an "air cushion curtain with side cushions (abbreviation: L.K.V.)".

Dieses System ist in schmalen, flachen Hohlstreben installiert, die innen am Wagendach angebracht werden. In diesen Streben sind, dem Airbag ähnliche, Luftkissen untergebracht, die bei einem Zusammenstoß in Sekundenbruchteilen herunterfallen und dabei aufgeblasen werden, ausgelöst durch in den Stoß­ stangen angebrachte Sensoren, die einen Impuls an Druckluftzylinder und Klappenverschlüsse geben. Die seitlichen Polster des Luftkissens verhindern ein Wegkippen des Oberkörpers zur Seite, und da es von oben kommt, sind das Gesicht und der Kopf insgesamt geschützt. Der Kopf legt max. 15 cm bis zum Kontakt mit dem L.K.V. zurück und kann somit keine große Geschwindig­ keit entwickeln. This system is installed in narrow, flat hollow struts, the inside be attached to the car roof. In these struts, airbag-like, Air cushions housed in a split second in a collision falling down and being inflated, triggered by the impact rods attached sensors that send a pulse to air cylinders and Give flap closures. Prevent the side cushions of the air cushion a tilting of the upper body to the side, and since it comes from above the face and head are all protected. The head places max. 15 cm to to contact the L.K.V. back and can therefore not be a high speed develop ability.  

Das L.K.V.-System schützt durch seine Konstruktionsweise neben dem Fahrer auch alle anderen Fahrzeuginsassen. Es läßt sich nachträg­ lich in alle gängigen Pkw- und Lkw-Typen, wenn Sie wollen, ja sogar in Flugzeuge, insbesondere in Großraumjets, einbauen. Die Kosten werden bei Einzelfertigung derzeit etwa bei 800.- DM pro Bügel lie­ gen, also bei ca. 1.600.- DM pro Pkw. Bei Serienfertigung dürfte dieser Preis noch deutlich zu senken sein.The L.K.V. system protects in addition to the Driver also all other vehicle occupants. It can be added later in all common types of cars and trucks, if you want, even in aircraft, especially in wide-body jets. The costs are currently around 800.- DM per bracket for one-off production gene, so at about 1,600.- DM per car this price can still be significantly reduced.

Damit bringt mein L.K.V.-System deutliche Verbesserungen gegen­ über dem derzeit favorisierten Airbag. All seine Vorteile sollten genutzt und der breiten Masse der Autofahrer als zusätzliche Lebens­ versicherung zugänglich gemacht werden. Bitte prüfen Sie als Sach­ verständige die beigefügten Unterlagen und erteilen Sie mir auf das L.K.V. -System das Patent, damit es möglicherweise bald der Öffent­ lichkeit zur Verfügung gestellt werden kann.My L.K.V. system thus brings significant improvements over the currently favored airbag. All of its advantages should used and the broad mass of motorists as an additional life insurance be made accessible. Please check as a property notify the attached documents and give me on that L.K.V. -System the patent so it may be public soon can be made available.
