Abstract: A side airbag includes two main-body fabrics superimposed to have one sides opposed to each other and including a textile having 400 dtex or less yarn, 200 g/m2 or less weight, and 2,000 or more cover factor, thermosetting silicone placed at least one sides of the two fabrics, and solventless addition room-temperature-vulcanizing adhesive silicone interposed between the two fabrics at a junction and having 20 or less JIS-A hardness and 800% or more initial fractural elongation after cure.

Abstract: An airbag for a vehicle which is comprised of a first base cloth portion having a gas inlet opening, a second base cloth portion joined along an outer edge thereof to an outer edge of the first base cloth portion to form a gas-fillable chamber, gas escape venting which is communicable with the chamber, and a shielding connection portion. The shielding connection portion separably joins the first base cloth portion and second base cloth portion, and is formed at least at a portion of a periphery of the gas escape venting which is closest to the gas inlet opening.

Abstract: A side airbag to be installed around a window of an automotive vehicle to protect a vehicle occupant from impact in a side collision. The side airbag comprises two base cloths which are joined with each other by hollow weave through a linear joining portion which defines a profile of a hollow section. The linear joining portion includes a first straight linear segment part parallel with warp yarns of the base cloths, and a second straight linear segment part parallel with weft yarns of the base cloths. The first and second straight linear segment parts are connected with each other. The linear joining portion includes a step-like section constituted of at least one first straight linear segment part and at least one second straight linear segment part which are connected to each other Additionally, heat-resistant elastomer is coated on the two base cloths including the linear joining portion.

Abstract: An object is to provide an air bag to protect passengers during collisions, which is lighter and can be compactly accommodated, which is sufficiently airtight, and which has durable strength in the sewn parts. The invention relates to a lightweight air bag, wherein the air bag main body is constituted of a base fabric composed of a woven fabric which has been made using a raw yarn of less than 150 denier and a cover factor of 2100 or more or a basis weight of 140 g/m2 or less, and the air bag main body is preferably constituted of a base fabric having 10 g/m2 or less of a heat resistant elastomer applied thereon, at least part of the sewn areas relating to the air bag main body, particularly where a reinforcing fabric is sewn around the inflator fitting hole, being sewn with a sewing thread having a specific yarn number count T and stitch number S (stitches/centimeter), as indicated by the following Formulas: 10<T≦60  (1A) 2≦T/S≦8  (1B)(1).

Abstract: An uncoated hollow weave air bag composed of a hollow weave fabric in which the circumferential periphery of the hollow part shaping the bag body is joined by a band of one layer bind weave, the hollow weave air bag satisfying the condition ?1! -?3! below: ?1! the weave constituting cloth A forming the hollow part of the bag body is a plain weave and the cover factor of cloth A being 2000.ltoreq.K.ltoreq.2300, ?2! the weave constituting cloth B which is the other cloth forming said hollow part, and the ratio of gas permeability at a pressure of 19.6 kpa for cloth B (qB) to that of cloth A (qA), qB/qA satisfies a relation 1.ltoreq.qB/qA.ltoreq.2.2, ?5! an opening (6) for attachment of the gas generator is provided in part of cloth B. The air bag of the present invention can be produced in a simplified manufacturing process and is light weight, less bulky and excellent in its safe inflation characteristics.

Abstract: A tire-reinforcing dip cord composed of nylon 6 and/or nylon 66 fiber is described. The dip cord has (1) a strength at break of at least 8.2 g/d, (2) an elongation of at least 18% under a load of 8 g/d, (3) a gradient not larger than 0.75 in the load-elongation curve immediately before break, and (4) a cord diameter variation ratio (D/D.sub.o) (D=cord diameter under a load of 450 g and D.sub.o =cord diameter under no load) not larger than 0.65. The dip cord is prepared by treating a nylon 6 and/or nylon 66 cord yarn with an adhesive wherein at least one of the following processes (i) and (ii) is employed: (i) the adhesive treatment is carried out under elongation of at least 3%, and (ii) as the adhesive, a liquid mixture of a resorcinol/formaldehyde (R/F) condensate and a rubber latex is used, in which at least 20 wt. % of the condensate has a R/F molar ratio of 1/1.9-1/1.
