Patent number: 11046277Abstract: An airbag unit for a motor vehicle safety device includes an inflatable airbag and a cover. The inflatable airbag is formed of flexible material and provided in a rolled and/or folded package. The cover extends around at least part of the package. The cover includes a first cover portion and a second cover portion. The first cover portion is located on a first side of the package, and at least a region of the second cover portion being located on an opposite second side of the package. The second cover portion is substantially flexible and is connected to or formed integrally with the first cover portion, and the first cover portion has a predetermined stable shape and is relatively rigid in comparison to the second cover portion.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2017Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: AUTOLIV DEVELOPMENT ABInventors: Carl-Johan Svensson, Johan Fritzen, Borje Jacobsson, Martin Östman, Par Sandinge, Jessica Hammarstöm, Jules Houessou

Publication number: 20120267880Abstract: An airbag for a motor vehicle includes an airbag skin having two side walls which enclose a gas chamber. The airbag skin is at least partially rolled to a shaped package in the resting state of the curtain airbag, with the shaped package having a non-circular cross-section. In order to provide a cost-effective way to produce such an airbag and to ensure that the airbag shows a deployment behaviour of a rolled package, the non-circular cross-section is permanent as long as the pressure inside the gas chamber does not exceed the pressure of the environment and is obtainable by plastic conversion of a rolled package with a circular cross-section.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2010Publication date: October 25, 2012Applicant: AUTOLIV DEVELOPMENT ABInventors: Henrik Frisk, Börje Jacobsson, Ola Henriksson, Carl-Johan Svensson, Mats Berntsson, Fredrik Kjell, Stefan Andersson

Patent number: 7770918Abstract: A curtain airbag for installation in the roof frame area of a motor vehicle exhibits at least one guide chamber which is located in the upper section of curtain airbag and which is connected with its inflatable area from the point of view of gas flow. The at least one guide chamber can be inflated on the outer side of the curtain airbag when this is in a mounted state. The upper section of curtain airbag is directed downwards when in the mounted state.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2007Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Autoliv Development ABInventors: Mats Berntsson, Fredrik Kjell, Börje Jacobsson, Ola Henriksson

Patent number: 7661705Abstract: In at least one embodiment of the present invention, an airbag unit is provided. The airbag unit comprises an airbag made of fabric. The unit has fastening devices for attaching the airbag to a motor vehicle. A cover section is proximate to the fastening devices and is fastened to the airbag. The cover section is configured to not completely cover the airbag when the airbag is in an unrolled state and forms a wrapping of the airbag when the airbag is rolled-up with the cover section to define rolled-up state.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2008Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: Autoliv Development ABInventors: Borje Jacobsson, Mats Berntsson, Fredrik Kjell

Patent number: 7654567Abstract: An airbag having an airbag fabric skin (10) enclosing an interior gas space with a first edge (11) extending from a first end (11a) to a second end (11b), whereby an accommodation area (A) for a gas generator (20) is located at the first edge outside the gas spaced extending parallel the first edge (11), which exhibits an area (32) of a deflector element 930) which accommodates the gas generator. In order to ensure that the airbag unit consisting of gas generator and airbag halves in a thrust-neutral manner in case of a fire, deflector element (30) consists of a tubular, flexible element, whereby the deflector element (30) exhibits an upper and lower area (32, 36) whose lower area (36) is located inside the gas space (G). The deflector element is connected with the airbag skin in an intermediate area (34) which is located between upper and lower areas.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2007Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: Autoliv Development ABInventors: Ian Taylor, Alan Bradburn, Borje Jacobsson, Ola Henriksson, Anders Hagman, Martin Lindsay
