Abstract

1362672 Crash restraint devices NISSAN MOTOR CO Ltd 6 July 1971 [31 July 1970 (2) 10 Dec 1970 28 Dec 1970] 31606/71 Heading B7B In a vehicular safety device having a gas inflatable cushioning structure the external dimensions of the gas inflatable structure define a volume greater than the volume of the inflating gas, whereby air is admissible into the remaining volume portion during inflation. In one embodiment the inflatable structure 10 is bell shaped and carries at its open end an aperture sheet or net 13. During inflation air within the passenger compartment enters the cavity 12 of the structure to reduce the pressure increase caused by inflation of the cushion. In another embodiment the cushioning structure is defined by four conical bags 14a-14d which carry an apertured net or screen 13<SP>1</SP>. In a further embodiment the gas inflatable structure is defined by concentric inner and outer walls 29, 28 which are interconnected by apertured walls 32a-32e to define communicating chambers 30a-30f. Flexible walls attached to the rear and ends of the walls 28, 29 define therewith an inner compartment 33 into which air from the passenger compartment is drawn during inflation of the structure. Inlet and outlet apertures with flap valves controlling the fluid flow therethrough are provided in the flexible walls of the inner compartment 33. In another embodiment (Fig. 5, not shown) the apertured walls 32a-32e are omitted.
