  • Patent number: 7744125
    Abstract: An occupant safety device for a motor vehicle having a roof. The safety occupant device comprises a support structure slidably mounted within the vehicle that, upon actuation, extends vertically upwardly within the vehicle to cooperate with the vehicle's roof to increase the amount of weight that the roof can support. The support structure includes an overhanging top portion having a length and a direction of overhang that, upon actuation of the support structure, provide early roof engagement in the event of roof crush.

  • Patent number: 7585023
    Abstract: A support structure comprises a first portion for sliding attachment to a seat having a front, a back, and two sides, and a second portion connected to the first portion at a substantially right angle. The first portion has a hollow cross-sectional shape with an asymmetrical material distribution through the plane of the cross section, the material distribution placing more of the material comprising the first portion toward the sides of the vehicle seat. The support structure is adapted for attachment to the seat and is adapted to be activated to extend in a substantially vertical direction upwardly from the seat. The first portion has an arc shape along its length so that when the support structure is activated the second portion is supported by the first portion at a desirable angle for bracing against an impact force direction that is typical of vehicle rollover.

  • Publication number: 20070200330
    Abstract: An occupant safety device for a vehicle. The occupant safety device comprises a support structure mounted directly or indirectly to a floor of the vehicle, the support structure being activated when a rollover condition is sensed. The support structure, when activated, extends toward a roof of the vehicle to reinforce the roof during rollover. The support structure cooperates with the vehicle floor to provide an amount of floor deformation upon rollover to absorb energy and maintain a safe passenger space between the roof and the floor.
