Air bag, screws are normally used so that the air bag module is fastened by its rear part to the support structure by means of the generator support The manufacture of such screw fastening means faces considerable difficulty in assembly. To reduce this mounting difficulty, in US-A-5,333,897 an air bag module is provided with many bolts applied to the rear, which are inserted through is of a corresponding opening in a support plate and which each have a fastening means which after insertion is placed in a manner that conforms to the shape on the back of the support plate. The fastening means consists of an elastic material and is attached to an element that produces a deviation by which the uncoupling of the fastening means from the support plate is prevented. The disadvantage of such fastening between the air bag module and the support plate is to be seen in the fact that the fastening means consists of a plurality of individual parts which are mostly relatively complicated and have to be be manufactured to narrow manufacturing tolerances, if they will satisfy the requirements of mass production. Some parts are also prone to breakage, so that the reliability of the operation can not be assured to a sufficient extent. In general, the known method of restraint is observed to be too expensive. Therefore, there is the problem of configuring the necessary positive connection between an air bag module and a support structure, in such a way the drive of the heavy screw can be avoided on one side, while on the other hand the need to expensive special production of a fastener. Connecting the air bag module and supporting the structure will be as simple as possible and quick to perform, and in the case of the need for separation it will be simple and quick.

The invention is based on the knowledge that a fastening connection between an air bag module and a support structure can be made much simpler and at a lower cost than in the description proposed in USAS, 333, 897 if the fastening means Independent bolt is provided. In this way, the bolt can be made as a simple component, rotationally symmetrical and therefore manufactured more cheaply. The fastening means by themselves are not complicated and can be done without exceedingly high requirements for manufacturing accuracy. In the modality of the idea of invention, it is advantageous if the bolt can be pushed into the opening, in addition to the given holding position, compressing an elastic element acting along the bolt and if the bolt can be restored to the given holding position, after the jump backward of the holding means within the holding position by the elastic element, while holding a deviation between the rear wall of the housing and the supporting component. In addition, it is more advantageous if the bolt is connected to the non-rotating housing wall (or the support component) projecting outwards, and the securing means on the support component (or on the rear wall of the housing). it can be deflected from the clamping position to the open position by means of a tool, while the clamping means escapes from the retainer under the influence of the elastic element. In an advantageous embodiment of the idea of the invention, the provision is made in such a way that the bolt is rotatably attached and projects outwards to the rear wall of the housing (or to the support component) and the retainer on the bolt is configured in such a way that when rotating the bolt with a tool around its longitudinal axis, the retaining means can be deflected to the open position, while the retaining means escapes from the detent under the influence of the elastic element. In another convenient embodiment, provision is made in such a way that the fastening means consists of a pair of hooks opposite one another in a tenazei-like manner, which have beveled engagement edges and are offset transversely of the longitudinal axis of the fastener. bolt to the closed position by the springs and can be deflected by means of a tool to the open position and that the bolt has a tapered front portion for its end and a wider portion which is the body and when the body is inserted in the opening, the hooks can be deflected to the open position by the cooperation of the tapered front portion and the bevelled engagement edges, and the abrupt diameter change between the front portion and the bolt body forms the retainer on which the hooks are hold when the pin has reached the given clamping position. In another embodiment, the provision is made that such a fastening element consists of a spring rod biased to a closed position through the length of the bolt and fixed at the end, which can be deflected by means of a tool to a open position, and that the bolt has a body with a conical tip at its end and that it has a detent in the shape of a notch; The spring rod can be biased to the open position by inserting into the opening and snap back into the notch when the bolt has reached the given clamping position. The fastening means may consist of a U-shaped fork spring, whose legs are deflected through the longitudinal axis of the bolt to a closed position and can be deflected to an open position, the bolt has a conically tapered front portion and a Notch area, with a residual cross-section in the form of a lens, the legs of the fork spring are biased to the open position when the bolt is inserted into the opening and snaps into the retainer in the form of a notch , when the bolt has reached the given clamping position and the legs of the spring in the form of a fork, they can be deflected to the open position by rotating the bolt 90 ° on its longitudinal axis, releasing the connection of the retainer. In a further, advantageous embodiment of the idea of the invention, the provision is made in such a way that the retaining means consists of a spring plate placed, not rotatably, having two clamping arms positioned at an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the bolt, which are biased to a position open transversally of the longitudinal axis of the bolt and can be biased to an open position and the bolt body has a conically tapered front portion and two wedge-shaped cross-section openings that are placed opposite each other with a step-like retainer, the retainer arms are deflected to the open position, when the bolt is inserted into the opening and snapped into the detents in the form of steps when the bolt has reached the position of clamping given, while the clamping arms are deflectable to the open position by rotating the bolt 90 ° on its axis length al, freeing the retainer. The elastic member acting along the bolt may be either a spring acting between the housing wall and the support component, or an elastomeric component placed between the rear wall of the housing and the support component. Further details of the idea of the invention will be further explained with the aid of the embodiments shown in Figures 1 to 5, in which: Figure 1 is a first embodiment with a non-rotating bolt Figure 2 is a second embodiment with a non-rotating bolt Figure 3 and 4 represents a first embodiment with a rotary bolt Figure 5 is a second example with a rotary bolt.
Figure 1 shows a section through a fastener for an air bag module to a support component of a chassis of a motor vehicle. The bolt 3 is attached to the rear bolt 1 of the air bag module in a non-rotating fashion and has a body 7 and a front portion 6, which is widened in a step shape and tapered at the end 6. A component 5 in the shape of a small box-like housing is attached to the supporting component 2 of the chassis of the motor vehicle and on it is mounted a pair of hooks 10 which face each other in a similar manner to a pincer, the which have beveled edges 11 and are biased towards a closed position by the springs 12 transversely of the longitudinal axis of the pin. The hooks 10 have extensions 10 'carried through an opening in the support component, between which a tool can be introduced to deflect the hooks 10 to an open position, when the air bag module is removed. During installation the bolt 7 reaches its tapered front portion through the opening 4 in the component 5, forces the edges 11 of the hooks 10 outwards against the springs 12, until the end position shown is reached in the which hooks 10 are fastened on the front portion 6, which is extended in steps outwardly of the body 7 of the bolt 3. An elastomer component 9 placed between the air bag housing wall 1 and the support component 2 and the component 5 ensure that the bolt 3 can be advanced down slightly more longitudinally than represented, for on the one hand to secure the fastening and on the other hand to maintain a deviation in the longitudinal direction of the bolt in the installed state. The elastic element 9 ensures that the air bag module will not move in relation to the car body, still due to the vibration of the vehicle and possibly create noise. Figure 2 also represents a section through a fastening means in which, again, a bolt 3 is fastened non-rotatably to the rear part of the housing 1 of the air bag module. The support component 2 has an opening 4 and is surrounded at the insertion point by an element 9 of elastomeric material. The body 7 of the bolt 3 has a beveled front end 6 and a mating groove 8 in the shape of a groove 14. A straight spring 13 is fixed to the support component 2 and cuts through the opening of the opening 4 in a form of a secant and when the bolt 3 is inserted into the opening 4 is biased to an open position by the chamfered front portion 6 and finally snaps back into the slot 14, when the bolt 3 has reached the default clamping position. The element 9 of elastomeric material ensures that the bolt can be pushed deeper than what is shown and that the elastic deviation is maintained between the housing part 1 and the support component 2. In the embodiment shown in Figure 3, a bolt 3 is provided which is fastened to the rear part of the housing of the air bag module for rotation about its longitudinal axis. A U-shaped fork spring 15 is fastened to the support component 2 on an intermediate part 21 at the points 22. The fork spring 15 is mounted in the opening 4 provided in the support component 2 and in the installed state it enters within the slot 16 in the body 7 of the bolt 3, which is configured in such a way that the bolt 3 has in the groove area a residual transverse section 17 in the form of a lens. When the bolt 3"is rotated about its longitudinal axis, the legs of the fork spring 15 are stretched out from the closed position shown in an open position, when the residual cross-section 17 in the form of a bolt lens has reached a position rotated through 90. In this position removal can be performed.An element 9 of resilient material again ensures that the bolt 3 can be further pushed into the opening 4 that shows it, to ensure that the fork spring will catch and maintain a permanent deviation between the wall 1 of the housing and the support component 2.
In the embodiment in Figure 5, a spring plate 18 is non-rotatably positioned on the rear part of the housing and has two fasteners 19 positioned opposite one another in an attitude inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the bolt 3. The bolt 3 is in this case rotatably attached to the support component 2 and has a tapered front portion 6 and a slot portion consisting of two recesses 20 of wedge-shaped cross-section positioned opposite one another, forming a step fastener 8 . When the bolt 3 is pressed into the opening 4, the fasteners 19 are forced outwardly by the tapered end of the bolt until they finally snap into the wedge-shaped recesses 20. Since the latter are formed only on opposite sides of the bolt 3, the fasteners 19 can be decoupled by rotating the bolt 3 90 °, if the air bag module is to be removed. In this embodiment also, an element 9 of elastomeric material is provided for the functions described in the foregoing. The idea of the invention is not limited to the embodiments shown and on the contrary, they can also be contemplated in such a way that in the embodiments according to Figures 1-3, the pin 3 is not attached to the rear part 1 of the housing , but to the support component 2 as provided in the embodiment shown in Figure 5. Of course, all other components must be adapted accordingly. Even so, the modality in Figure 5 can be considered in the inverse form.
