  • Patent number: 12358458
    Abstract: An airbag assembly for a vehicle according to various implementations includes an inflator and an airbag cushion. In some implementations, the airbag assembly also includes a housing. The inflator and the airbag cushion are stored in the housing when the airbag is in a non-deployed state. During a vehicle accident, the airbag cushion extends out of the housing to cushion movement of a vehicle occupant. The airbag cushion includes a main panel having a first edge and a second edge, a first side panel coupled to the first edge, and a second side panel coupled to the second edge. The first side panel and the second side panel comprise protrusions and a channel is defined by a portion of the main panel between the protrusions. In some implementations, the airbag assembly includes a second inflator.

  • Patent number: 11708998
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a drain pan configured to receive liquid condensate from a horizontal evaporator coil above the drain pan and a drain pan extension coupled to the drain pan. A pin on the front and rear sides of the drain pan extension is fitted and movable within a corresponding notch in the front and rear sides of the drain pan. The drain pan extension is securably configurable in a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the drain pan extension extends above the drain pan at a first angle relative to the drain pan. In the second configuration, at least a portion of the drain pan extension extends beyond the left pan side of the drain pan at a second angle, which may be selected for improved capture of liquid condensate from the horizontal evaporator coil.
