Patent number: 10836342Abstract: An airbag includes a bag body and an inlet port section of inflation gas. As a gas receivable region, the bag body includes a front main inflatable region, a rear main inflatable region, a feed path that feeds the inflation gas from the inlet port section to the front and rear main inflatable regions, and a sub inflatable region that absorbs the gas from the front main inflatable region when a pressure of the front main inflatable region soars. A front partitioning region partitions the front main inflatable region from the sub inflatable region. The front partitioning region is disposed in front of a front end of an upper partitioning region in an island-like fashion remote from other uninflatable region so as to provide, at the rear of and there beneath, one each communication passage that provides gas communication between the front main inflatable region and the sub inflatable region.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2018Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: TOYODA GOSEI CO., LTD.Inventors: Shinji Hayashi, Masaaki Okuhara, Takashi Iida, Ryosuke Jinnai, Kunihiro Aikawa, Sho Ikenohata, Jun Sato

Patent number: 9221419Abstract: An airbag has a lower edge of the inflation shielding section positioned lower than a belt line that is composed of the lower edge of the window at the time of the full inflation. The airbag is roll-folded such that the lower edge side thereof is wound toward the exterior side after the lower edge side thereof is folded to the exterior side, and is folded such that the lower edge-side end at the time of the full inflation is positioned on the outermost circumferential side of a roll-folding portion. While folded, the lower edge-sided end is disposed in a region where, during deployment and inflation, the lower edge-side end does not follow the inner circumferential portion of the roll-folding portion that is deployed on the inner circumferential side of the lower edge-side end, but is disposed at a position of the interior side of the inner circumferential portion.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2014Date of Patent: December 29, 2015Assignee: TOYODA GOSEI CO., LTD.Inventor: Sho Ikenohata

Patent number: 9145103Abstract: An airbag is housed in a housing area in the shape of a folded-up body which is obtained as a result of folding the airbag by bringing the lower edge close to the upper edge and elongated in a front and rear direction. A displacement-preventing means is provided at a peripheral portion of the airbag constituting an outer peripheral edge of the airbag for preventing a tape member wrapped around the folded-up body from supping against the folded-up body. The means is formed at an upper end region of the peripheral portion which will be an upper edge of the airbag at deployment and at least either in front of or at the rear of the tape member. The means is comprised of a recessed region or a projecting region that is formed on the airbag itself so as to be engageable with an end edge of the tape member.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2015Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: TOYODA GOSEI CO., LTD.Inventors: Atsushi Kashio, Sho Ikenohata

Publication number: 20150115582Abstract: An airbag has a configuration in which the lower edge of the inflation shielding section is positioned lower than a belt line that is composed of the lower edge of the window at the time of the full inflation. The airbag is roll-folded such that the lower edge side thereof is wound toward the exterior side after the lower edge side thereof is folded to the exterior side, and is folded such that the lower edge-side end at the time of the full inflation is positioned on the outermost circumferential side of a roll-folding portion. The airbag is folded such that the lower edge-sided end is disposed in a region where, when the roll-folding is released during deployment and inflation, the lower edge-side end does not follow the inner circumferential portion of the roll-folding portion that is deployed on the inner circumferential side of the lower edge-side end, but is disposed at a position of the interior side of the inner circumferential portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2014Publication date: April 30, 2015Inventor: Sho IKENOHATA
