Definitions

  • the invention relates to a side airbag according to the preamble of Claim 1 and a side airbag unit according to Claim 11.
  • Side airbags are known in automotive technology and serve to protect the occupants of a vehicle in case of a side impact.
  • Such a side airbag is generally located in the side structure of the vehicle or in the backrest of a vehicle seat and expands between the internal structure and the vehicle occupant when the gas generator assigned to it ignites.
  • One problem which generally exists in the case of side air- bags in comparison to front airbags is that as from the time of collision, there is much less time for unfolding and filling of the airbag than in the case of a front airbag.
  • an impact sensor is ad- ditionally present in the device of the WO 2007/003406, and the evaluation and triggering unit is set up in such a way that the gas generator for filling of the side airbag is triggered upon impact of an object on the side wall, in so far as this has not already occurred based on the proximity sensor which is also present.
  • the impact sensor therefore serves as a "fallback" sensor.
  • the proposed side airbag exhibits a ventilation device.
  • the present invention sets itself the problem to improve a side airbag of the generic type and a side airbag unit of the generic type in such a way that a protection level which is as high as possible is achieved for the occupants both when the gas generator is triggered based on a signal from the proximity sensor and when the gas generator is triggered based on a signal from the impact sensor.
  • the gas generator When the gas generator is triggered based on the signal of the proximity sensor, there is a relatively large amount of space between the internal structure of the vehicle and the vehicle occupants and it is ideal to make use of the space available completely, in other words to provide an airbag which has a relatively large thickness.
  • the gas generator is not ignited until an object strikes the side wall, there is less space available, as at the time of complete expansion of the airbag the vehicle occupant has already moved in the direction of the internal structure and/or the structure was already pushed in the direction of the vehicle occupant by the intruding object. There is therefore less space available and the thickness of the side airbag should be less than in case of the ignition of the gas generator before the object strikes the vehicle.
  • a too-thick airbag would have a negative influence on the protective effect, as it could lead to the vehicle occupant being pushed away too far into the interior of the vehicle, respectably the forces exerted on the vehicle occupant would be too large. Therefore a side airbag with a first protective state and a second protective state is provided whereby the second protective state exhibits an increased gas chamber volume and therefore a greater thickness than the first protective state. At least one tear-open connection is provided which tears open during the transition from the first protective state to the second protective state; in other words, there is a defined transition from the first to the second protective state. It is possible to allocate a precise gas chamber volume and a precise maximum thickness to each of the two protective states.
  • the suitable thickness of the side air- bag is provided for both situations.
  • This thickness can be selected so as to be ideal in each case.
  • optimal protection in other words if the side airbag is already triggered before an object has struck, no compromises have to be made in order to achieve acceptable values in a non- optimal situation, in other words if the side airbag is not triggered until an object impacts the side wall.
  • this gas generator does not "know” whether it was ignited based on the proximity sensor or based on the impact sensor, and the airbag volume to be filled is of different sizes, further measures have to be taken in order to achieve the appropriate airbag hardness in every case.
  • this is achieved in that the ventilation in the second protective state is throttled in comparison to the first protective state.
  • at least one ventilation device is present, which has a free cross- section in every state, with the free cross-section in the first protective state being larger than in the second protective state, so that more gas can exhaust in the first protective state.

  • FIG. 1 shows a simplified principle view of a side airbag unit according to the invention.
  • a side airbag 20 is held on the vehicle side wall F and can be inflated by a gas generator 16, which is located in the inside of the side airbag.
  • Gas generator 16 is triggered by the evaluation and triggering unit 14 which in turn is con- nected to a proximity sensor 10 and an impact sensor 12.
  • the evaluation and triggering unit 14 is programmed in such a way that it ignites the gas generator 16 when it interprets the signals of a proximity sensor 10 in such a way that striking of an object O against the vehicle side wall F is certain. If an object O strikes the vehicle side wall F without the gas generator 16 being ignited, this is registered by the impact sensor 12 upon whose signal the gas generator 16 is ignited by the evaluation and triggering unit 14. the impact sensor 12 therefore serves as a "fallback" sensor for the proximity sensor 10.
  • the side airbag 20 exhibits three unfolding states, namely a pre-unfolding state, as is shown in Figure 1 , a first protective state, as shown in Figure 2, and a second protective state, as is shown in Figure 3.
  • the side airbag has a defined volume and a defined maximum thickness d max v. dm a xsi. d ma ⁇ S2 -
  • the side airbag 20 is constructed as follows:
  • the side airbag exhibits an impact section 22 with an edge area 22a and a support section 24 lying opposite to the impact section 22 with an edge area 24a.
  • This first tear seam 30 forms the first tear-open connection.
  • the first tear seam 30 as will be seen precisely later, extends over the upper, lower and front sections of the edge areas 22a and 24a. If the first tear seam 30 is closed, the pre-unfolding state results as is shown, for example, in Figure 1. In this pre-unfolding state, the impact section 22 and the support section 24 form the entire outer skin of the side airbag.
  • a further skin section 26 is provided and connected both with the impact section and with support section 24.
  • This further skin section 26 again exhibits a primary area 26a and a secondary area 26b.
  • the secondary area 26b is, until the second protective state is reached, connected with itself by means of a tear seam field 32.
  • the further skin section 26 is folded into the inside of the side airbag.
  • a ventilation device is present, which is active at least in the two protective states.
  • the ventilation device is throttled in the second protective state in comparison to the first protective state.
  • Figure 1 shows the situation when the side airbag 20 is ignited because of the signal of the proximity sensor 10.
  • Figure 1 shows the side air- bag 20 in the pre-unfolding state, in which the first tear seam 30 is still closed.
  • the presence of this first tear seam 30, which determines the existence of the pre- unfolding state has the sense that the side airbag 20 is completely unfolded at a very early point in time, which is also a requirement for reliable functioning of the side airbag according to the shown embodiment of the invention.
  • no ventilation takes place in the first unfolding phase until the pre-unfolding state is reached.
  • the first tear seam 30 tears open, upon which the side airbag 20 unfolds up to its first protective state as is shown in Figure 2. It can be seen that in this state the pri- mary area 26a of the further skin section 26 forms a part of the outer skin of the side airbag 20.
  • the ventilation device becomes active at the latest when the first protective state is reached, and exhibits a first free overall cross-section. If the gas generator 16 is ignited based on a signal of the proximity sensor 10, the first protective state is reached before the occupant I strikes the impact section 22 of the side airbag 20, which means that the side airbag 20 can expand further. This occurs in that the seams in the tear seam field 32 tear open and release the secondary area 26b of the further skin section 26.
  • the second protective state shown in Figure 3 with the maximum gas chamber volume and maximum thickness d max s 2 of the airbag is reached. This is the optimum protective state. Because of the early unfolding, occupant I, as indicated in Figure 3, does not strike the impact section 22 until the second protective state is reached. As the volume that has to be filled by the gas generator is larger than in the first protective state, the whole effective cross-section of the ventilation device is selected so as to be smaller than in the first protective state, in which the volume to be filled is smaller.
  • Figures 4 and 5 show the items just described if the gas generator 16 is not ignited based on a signal of proximity sensor 10, but based on a signal of the im- pact sensor 12, in other words later.
  • the pre-unfolding state is reached.
  • the impact section 2 is already lying against the occupant I, so the expansion of the side airbag 20 is correspondingly hindered and there is no longer sufficient force available in order to open the tear seams in the tear seam field 32, which means that the second protective state is not reached.
  • the maximum gas chamber volume and the maximum thickness remain smaller than in the second protective state.
  • the ventilation device is then in a condition in which it is opened to a larger extend than in the second protective state (Fig. 5).
  • Figure 6a shows a perspective view of the side airbag in a pre-unfolding state
  • the first tear seam 30 can be seen, which connects the two edge areas 22a, 24a of impact section 22 and support section 24 in an upper, a lower and front section.
  • This ventilation tab 42 is a part of the ventilation device.
  • FIG 6b it can be seen how the further skin section 26 extends into the interior of the airbag in the pre-unfolding state.
  • the primary area 26a and the secondary area 26b, in which the tear seam field 32 is located can be recognised.
  • the second ventilation opening 44 is located at the rear edge of the secondary area 26b, which is inactive in the pre-unfolding state and in the first protec- tive state.
  • the secondary area 26b is preferably woven in one piece, so that the tear seam field 32 is an integral part of the further skin section 26 and the tear seams are woven threads.
  • the side airbag 20 enters into the first protective state shown in Figures 7a and 7b. It can be seen that in this state the primary area 26a of the further skin section 26 forms a part of the outer skin of the side airbag.
  • the side airbag has transformed from a 2-D structure into a 3-D structure.
  • Figure 7a and Figure 9 which is a view from Direction R in Figure 7a, also in the first protection state, the valve tab 42 does not lie tightly against the side airbag. This means that gas can stream out through the two first ventilation openings 40, which are located in the primary area 26a of the further skin section 26, and which were released during the transition from the pre-unfolding state into the first protective state.
  • the side airbag can continue to unfold freely, the tear seams in tear seam field 32 tear open, and the secondary area 26b of the further skin section 26 is released, which means that it also forms a part of the outer skin of the side airbag.
  • the side airbag has a greater volume and a greater maximum thickness.
  • the second ventilation opening 44 is released by these means and gas then streams out of the gas chamber through this second ventilation opening 44.
  • first ventilation openings 40 are closed because the ventilation tab 42 is pressed onto the first ventilation openings 40 because of the further thickening of the side airbag, as can be seen in Figures 8a and 10.
  • the surface of the second ventilation opening 44 is smaller than the total surface of the first ventilation openings 40, so that the entire ventilation device is throttled in the second protective state in comparison to the first protective state.
  • the second ventilation opening 44 opens very late, namely when the second protective state is completely or almost completely reached.
  • the side airbag can be adjusted in such a way that it is not ventilated during the transition from the first to the second protective state. This is possible as the side airbag unit can be set up in such a way that the second protective state is only reached when the gas generator is ignited based on a signal of proximity sensor 10, and it is then also sure that the occupant does not strike the side airbag until the completion of the second protective state. This means that it is possible to "save gas" during the transition from the first into the second protective state, which naturally also favours a rapid completion of the second protective state.
  • the side airbag therefore exhibits two partial ventilation devices, whereby the first partial ventilation device is formed of the first ventilation opening 40 and the ven- tilation tab 42 and the second partial ventilation device is formed of the second ventilation opening 44 and the tear seam field 32.
  • Figures 13 and 14 show a second embodiment of a side airbag 20 according to the invention in a schematic representation.
  • the side airbag of this embodiment is comprised of only two cuttings 50, 52, whereby the impact surface 50a is a part of the first cutting 50 and the support surface 52a is a part of the second cutting 52. A further skin section 26 is not present.
  • the side airbag 20 only exhibits a first and a second protective state. There is no de- fined pre-unfolding state. In the first protective state, the front areas of the first and the second cutting 52 are connected with each other by means of a tear seam field 32, so that an area which projects towards the inside is formed.
  • the innermost point of this area which projects towards the inside is connected with a fixed point, for example with the gas generator 16 by means of a tether 54. If the impact surface 22a comes into contact with the vehicle occupant early, a further expansion is prevented, and the airbag remains in the first protective state shown in Figure 13 with reduced volume and reduced maximum thickness.
  • the tear seams in the tear seam field 32 tear after reaching the first protective state and the side airbag expands up to its second protective state shown in Figure 14, in which it exhibits a heart-shaped cross-section because of the relatively short tether.
  • a ventilation device is shown in schematic form whose state is actively influenced.
  • This vent device exhibits a ventilation opening 74, a valve element 72 which can be torn off the skin of the airbag (referred to as “tearable valve element 72"), a pull element 70 and an actuator, which can for example work pyrotechnically.
  • This actuator can for example be flanged onto the gas generator.
  • the tearable valve element 72 is sewn to the skin of the side airbag by means of a tear seam around the ventilation opening 74 and is connected with the actuator by means of the pull element 70.
  • the tearable valve element 72 has a through-hole 72a, whose diameter is smaller than the diameter of the ventilation opening 74.
  • the actuator is connected with the evaluation and triggering unit 14 by means of a signal line. If the ignition of the gas generator 16 is caused by the evaluation and triggering unit 14 based on a signal of the impact sensor 12, the actuator is also ignited and the tearable valve element 72 is torn off by the pull element 70, so that the side airbag 20 is ventilated via the entire ventilation open- ing 74 - Figure 13, first protective state. If 1 in contrast, the gas generator 16 is ignited based on a signal of the proximity sensor 10, the evaluation and triggering unit 14 does not trigger the actuator and the tearable valve element 72 remains in front of ventilation opening 74 and the ventilation device is throttled in the second protective state in comparison to the first protective state - Fig. 14.
  • Figures 15 and 16 show a possible passive ventilation device for the embodiment just shown (in so far as no active ventilation device is present).
  • the second cutting 52 exhibits a common ventilation opening 60 with a defined cross-section.
  • a cover cutting 56 is provided, which is connected with the first and second cuttings 50, 52 by means of permanent seams 57a and 57b.
  • a cover cut- ting 56 is connected with the second cutting 52 by means of a valve tear seam 58.
  • the length of the cover cutting 56 is selected in such a way that a loop 56a is formed between the valve tear seam 58 and the permanent seam 57b.
  • the cover cutting 56 has two openings 65 and 66, whereby the first opening 65 is located over the ventilation opening 60 of the second cutting 52 in the first protective state, whereby the two openings are basically of the same size.
  • the second opening 66 is located in the area of the loop and has a smaller diameter.
  • the valve tear seam 58 tears because of the pull forces and the cover cutting 56 is pulled over the ventilation opening.
  • the second opening 62 comes to lie above the ventilation opening, so that the ventilation device is throttled in comparison to the first protective state.
  • the ventilation device of the side airbag according to the invention can consist of two partial ventilation devices which are completely separate from one another, in which a first partial ventilation device is open in the first protective state and is closed in the second protective state and in which a second partial ventilation device is closed in the first protective state and is open in the second protective state (first embodiment), or of a common ventilation device, which exhibits different effective cross-sections in the two protective states (second embodiment). Mixed forms of these could also be imagined.
