Abstract: A safety arrangement for a motor vehicle is disclosed which comprises an air-bag module (1) having an inflatable air-bag (5) in fluid communication with an inflator (4). An internal tether (14) is provided having a first end (15) and a second end (16). The first end (15) of the tether is connected to a restrainable part (13) of the air-bag, whilst the second end (16) of the tether is free from connection with the air-bag but is initially trapped between the folds or rolls of an initially folded or rolled part of the air-bag. The arrangement is such that, upon inflation of the air-bag, the tether serves to restrain the restrainable part (13) of the air-bag until such time as the folded or rolled part of the air-bag (9) becomes sufficiently unfolded or unrolled to release the second end (16) of the tether (14).

Abstract: An arrangement for a protective cover for the edge of a sheet metal at roof-to-wall abutments, comprising a cover strip which is placed above the upper edge of the sheet metal edge panel. A clamping strap is employed which runs transversely with respect to the cover strip and thus with respect to the edge of the sheet metal panel and is attached to the wall by means of screws or nails. The clamping strap includes a flexible leg which stands off the wall and projects upwards. The upper edge portion of the cover strip is bent off twice against the wall, whereby the bent-off edge hooks behind the stand-off leg of clamping straps.
