  • Patent number: 11938884
    Abstract: The present invention provides: an airbag cover which is formed by integrally joining a first base fabric and a second base fabric having mutually different characteristics, and has a joint portion that ensures high productivity in mass production; a method for manufacturing the airbag cover; and an airbag device. The present invention relates to an airbag cover for storing a bag-shaped cushion which is rolled up or folded before being inflated and deployed by a gas supplied from an inflater, and relates to a method for manufacturing the airbag cover. The airbag cover is characterized by comprising a first base fabric made of a plain-woven fabric or a non-woven fabric made from chemical fibers, and a second base fabric containing fibers different from the fibers constituting the first base fabric, and having an initial tensile resistance value higher than an initial tensile resistance value of the first base fabric.

  • Publication number: 20240035209
    Abstract: Provided is a sensing fiber member which can be processed in long lengths, which excels in mass production, which is supple and has an excellent texture, and which is much less costly than a contact sensing fiber member (a piezoelectric yarn) for which a conventional piezoelectric material is used. This sensing fiber member has at least two covering yarns for which covering is achieved by wrapping an insulating fiber serving as a covering material in one direction around a linear conductor constituting a core material, two of the covering yarns being arranged close to each other. The sensing fiber member is characterized by reading changes in resistance and/or changes in capacitance between the linear conductors of the two covering yarns arranged close to each other.
