  • Patent number: 7213835
    Abstract: An occupant restraint system in which an air bag is inflated with a gas generated by an inflator so as to be deployed along an inner surface of a side portion of a passenger compartment in a curtain-like fashion when a vehicle is involved in a collision, wherein a portion of the air bag in a folded state which is located in the vicinity of an end portion thereof is disposed within a space between a pillar and a pillar garnish mounted on a side of the pillar which faces a passenger compartment. By accommodating the air bag within an air bag accommodation chamber formed by partitioning the space with a bulkhead formed integrally on the pillar garnish, the bulkhead is allowed to be interposed between other members residing within the pillar garnish such as clips and brackets and the air bag.

  • Patent number: 7159895
    Abstract: In an occupant restraint system C, an airbag 21 is inflated by using gas, which is generated by an inflator 35 upon a vehicle collision, to be deployed into a shape of curtain along the inner surface of a side of a vehicle compartment. The occupant restraint system C includes pluralities of cells 21c and 21d, which are inflated along the inner surfaces of a B-pillar 15 and a C-pillar 16. By inclining axes S1 to S4 of the cells 21c and 21d with respect to an axis P1 of the B-pillar 15 or an axis P2 of the C-pillar 16, the lower ends of these cells 21c and 21d are hardly trapped by the B-pillar 15 or the C-pillar 16. Thus, the cells of the airbag are prevented from being trapped by the pillars to thereby enable the smooth deployment of the airbag.

  • Patent number: 7134682
    Abstract: An occupant restraint system includes an air bag arranged inside a roof side rail in a folded state. When a vehicle is involved in a collision, the air bag so arranged is inflated with a gas generated by an inflator so as to be deployed along an inner surface of a side portion of a passenger compartment in a curtain-like fashion. In a pillar garnish which covers a side of a pillar inner of a B pillar which faces a passenger compartment side, a rod-like projection provided on an inner surface of the pillar garnish at an upper portion thereof in such a manner as to project therefrom is inserted into a hole formed in the pillar inner. Even in case the air bag which is being deployed pushes against an upper end of the pillar garnish, the dislocation of the pillar garnish from the pillar inner is prevented.
