Abstract: An apparatus for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle includes a curtain airbag inflatable from a stored condition in which the airbag is rolled and/or folded to a deployed condition in which the curtain airbag is positioned between a side structure of the vehicle and the vehicle occupant. The curtain airbag comprises an inflator mouth configured to receive an inflator. The curtain airbag comprises a bracket tab proximate to the inflator mouth and configured to receive an inflator bracket. A tether has first and second end portions. The first end portion of the tether is connected to a portion of the curtain airbag adjacent to the bracket tab. The second end portion of the tether is connected to the bracket tab.

Abstract: A tension adjustment apparatus for a sander includes a first rigid portion and an opposed second rigid portion. A pair of elongated members are attached to the second portion and slideably received within the first portion. A pair of edge cavities are provided within the first portion each exposing a portion of the elongated member having a notch. A wheel is disposed within each edge cavity and caged by the notch of such elongated member. The wheel has axially disposed threaded apertures engaging a threaded fastener employed for attaching the wheel to the first portion for enabling linear motion of the elongated member and a corresponding linear motion of the second portion in a first direction away from the first portion to apply a predetermined tension in a sanding element and in a second linear direction towards the first portion to release the applied tension during reciprocal rotation of the wheels.
