The child seat comprises an inside for accommodating a child, an outside, at least one inflatable structure which is arranged on the outside of the child seat, and at least one gas source, wherein in the case of a collision of a motor vehicle in which the child seat is arranged the gas source provides gas for the at least one inflatable structure. It is provided that on its outside the child seat comprises at least one first inflatable structure, which during filling with gas is inflated substantially in lateral direction, and on its outside comprises at least one second inflatable structure, which during filling with gas is inflated substantially in a direction towards the front.

Abstract: A vehicle occupant restraint system includes an inflatable airbag arranged in a vehicle seat. When the airbag is triggered it at least partially unfolds in the direction of travel on a side of the vehicle seat facing the vehicle interior. The vehicle seat includes a backrest frame extending in a substantially vertical direction in the vehicle seat and substantially aligned in the direction of travel. The airbag is connected to a front end of the backrest frame pointing in the direction of travel.

Abstract: The disclosed airbag is for an occupant protection device, which protects a vehicle occupant in the event of an accident. In order for the airbag to provide a vehicle occupant with a great protective effect, an embodiment may comprise at least one supporting chamber, which gives the airbag mechanical stability in the inflated state, and at least one energy absorption chamber, which is designed to be more gas permeable than the supporting chamber. With such a configurations the energy absorption chamber absorbs more energy than the supporting chamber during the first phase of an accident.

Abstract: A side airbag device for a vehicle includes an airbag which is deployed in the event of an accident and, in the deployed state, covers a side wall section of the vehicle. In order for the airbag to reliably deploy, provision is made according to embodiments of the invention for the side airbag device to have a deployment control mechanism which deflect the airbag during its deployment around an obstacle situated in a region of a side wall section.

Abstract: A gas generator for an occupant protection system of a vehicle includes a compressed gas store, first and second bursting devices, and a gas generating triggering device. The compressed gas store has a discharge opening and is configured to store a compressed gas. The first bursting device can close the discharge opening. The triggering device can open the discharge open. The bursting devices can be supported against one another when the compressed gas store is closed, and an increased pressure for bursting a bursting device being able to be built up between the bursting devices by gas generated by the triggering device.

Abstract: An occupant protection device for motor vehicles, having an unfoldable protection element which, when unfolded, forms a curtain for the protection of vehicle occupants, in particular in the head/chest region. A tensioning strap is provided which, when the protection element is unfolded, is tensioned between a first vehicle point and a second vehicle point and in the process forms an obstacle against which the unfolded protection element is supported by means of its outwardly directed rear side.

Abstract: The invention relates to a non return valve for an airbag of a vehicle passenger retention system, which is provided with a connection hose between two chambers of the airbag, wherein in the connector hose a fabric inlay is accommodated. The fabric inlay subdivides the connection hose into a flow passage between the first and the second chamber and a pressure chamber which is in connection with the second chamber. As soon as the internal pressure in the first chamber is greater than that in the second chamber the fabric inlay opens the flow passage. If on the contrary the internal pressure in the second chamber is greater than that in the first chamber the fabric inlay closes off the flow passage by means of the internal pressure which acts in the pressure chamber.

Abstract: An inflatable airbag for a motor vehicle is provided. The airbag includes a main chamber configured to be connected to a gas generator. The airbag is arranged so that when the airbag is inflated at least a portion of the main chamber covers a side wall of the vehicle. The airbag may further include an additional airbag region configured to form an approximately spherically shaped chamber when inflated. The spherically shaped chamber may be configured to be inflated via the main chamber. The spherical chamber provides for an advantageous shortening of the airbag when the airbag is inflated when compared to the dimensions of the airbag in its spread out or uninflated state.

Abstract: The invention relates to an airbag module for motor vehicles comprising a housing for a folded together inflatable air bag and a holder element which can be locked to the housing, with the holder element extending in the locked state with at least one holder section through the side wall of the housing in the region of a lug of the side wall which can be bent aside relative to the side wall.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing an airbag which consists of a plurality of airbag parts and has an airbag envelope. In the method at least one airbag part is provided at least regionally with a polyurethane coating through the heating of which the airbag part can be welded to a further airbag part.
