Abstract: The device comprises a frame for oscillably supporting the reflecting surface, with a first and second portion pivoted to one another and to the body of the mirror along a first and a second oscillation axes which are mutually orthogonal; a pair of rods respectively rigidly associated with, and orthogonal to the mirror body and to the reflecting surface, one being arranged eccentrically with respect to the first, the other to the second oscillation axis; a pair of actuation rollers each whereof co-operates in contact engagement with each rod in order to move the rods parallel to themselves; and at least one electric motor for rotating the rollers with the interposition of reduction gears and for producing axial movements of the rods and corresponding oscillations of the frame portions about the respective pivoting axes, in order to orientate the reflecting surface.

Abstract: An improved aspirated, inflatable vehicle occupant restraint system is provided of the type including a housing, a confinement, means for expanding the confinement from a collapsed condition to an expanded condition and aspirator means having an inlet in fluid communication with the confinement. At least one flap is attached to the inner surface of the confinement, each flap being positioned toI. normally close the inlet of the aspirator means when the confinement is in the collapsed condition, andIi. gradually expose the inlet of the aspirator means when the expanding means is activated and the confinement moves from the collapsed condition to the expanded condition.
