Publication number: 20050236822Abstract: An airbag cushion venting system is disclosed. The system comprises an airbag cushion body having a cushion vent formed therein. A vent cover is attached to the body such that the vent cover at least partially covers the cushion vent in its unconstrained state. A tieback structure holds the vent cover either away from the cushion vent opening or in a position such that a smaller portion of the cushion vent is covered than is covered in the cushion vent's unconstrained state and is adapted to release the vent cover once the body has expanded a sufficient amount to enable the vent cover to at least partially cover the cushion vent.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 27, 2004Publication date: October 27, 2005Inventors: Larry Rose, Marc Russell

Publication number: 20050127650Abstract: The inflatable cushion of the present invention includes at least two panels and one or more heat shield strips. Each panel has an inflatable region, an attachment region, and a peripheral edge. The attachment region is positioned between the peripheral edge and the inflatable region of each panel. An inward fold is disposed between the inflatable region and the attachment region of each panel. The attachment regions of each panel are disposed proximate each other. A heat shield strip is disposed on a portion of the attachment region and the inflatable region of the same panel. A secure fastener secures the attachment regions of each adjacent panel together and secures the heat shield strip to the attachment region on which it is disposed. A frangible fastener secures the heat shield strip to the adjacent inflatable region on which it is positioned.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2003Publication date: June 16, 2005Inventors: Larry Rose, Trudy Lewis, Marc Russell, Shyam Kuppurathanam

Publication number: 20050052008Abstract: An airbag module may include an inflator, a cushion, and a deflection hood. When used as a passenger side, frontal impact module, the cushion deploys upward from a vehicle instrument panel. The deflection hood directs gas downward through a discharge opening and into the cushion to expedite inflation of the lower portion of the cushion to more uniformly cushion a vehicle occupant's body. The discharge opening may be sewn shut via a tear seam to ensure that the discharge opening is properly positioned when the tear seam opens to release inflation gas. Alternatively, the discharge opening may be sewn shut by a non-tearable seam, and perforations may be applied proximate the non-tearable seam so that the discharge opening opens along the perforations to release the inflation gas. According to one alternative, the deflection hood may be angled within the cushion to provide a significant asymmetrical, lateral gas flow.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 4, 2003Publication date: March 10, 2005Inventors: Larry Rose, Marc Russell

Patent number: 6463865Abstract: A method and apparatus for implanting a soil conditioner such as a water-absorbing substance into the soil underlying a grass or turf surface. The apparatus includes narrow vertical blades rotatably supported by the apparatus for creating deep notches extending to the soil for which perceptibility is limited and a dispensing system having tubes which are aligned with the blades to deliver the substance into the soil via the deep notches created by the blades. A drive assembly links a blade shaft supporting the blades with a feed bar slidably supported in a container channel to convert rotation of the blade shaft into reciprocated sliding of the feed bar to periodically bring openings in the feed bar into confronting relationship with openings in the container channel.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2000Date of Patent: October 15, 2002Inventors: Marc Russell Peters, Edward Cranston Howard, John Garde Grady
