Abstract: The present invention relates to an airbag cushion for protecting a driver and passengers when a vehicle crashes, wherein the sliding bent is guided into a belt guider and slides between a deployment portion and the belt guider, when the deployment portion is deployed. The sliding belt slides between the deployment portion and the belt guider in such a manner that before the deployment portion is deployed, the sliding belt clogs the first vent holes, when the deployment portion is partially deployed, the second vent hole forms a flow channel together with the first vent holes so that the gas is discharged along the flow channel through the first vent holes, and when the deployment portion is fully deployed, the sliding belt clogs the first vent holes so that the gas is not discharged through the first vent holes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficiently transmitting and receiving image data of a drawn sketch using a mobile terminal is disclosed. The method for transmitting data in the mobile terminal includes enabling a data transmission input mode to be selected, and compressing image data up to an allowable text transmission size and transmitting the compressed image data if the data transmission input mode is an image mode. The data may further include time information, and the time information provides a relative time when images are generated. The data may further include an identifier for identifying various transmission modes or reception modes, and malfunction of the system can be prevented by the identifier.

Abstract: A method for connecting a universal serial bus (USB) device to a USB host is disclosed. The method for connecting the USB device to a USB host includes detecting a connection to the USB host; controlling the USB host not to recognize the connection of the USB device; selecting one of USB modes provided by the USB device; and controlling the connection so as to allow the USB host to recognize the selected USB mode.

Abstract: An air bag module has a cushion size adjusting mechanism mounted for folding a part of a cushion and holding the same in an air bag housing. Thus, the expansion size of the cushion can be adjusted according to the expansion pressure of the inflator because if the expansion pressure of an inflator is large, the cushion is expanded to a full expansion size, thereby improving the performance and reliability. The cushion size adjusting mechanism is mounted to the air bag housing, thereby preventing accidents such as bruises caused when the cushion size adjusting mechanism is exposed to the outside.
