Abstract: A restraint system for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle having a roof and a cabin with a seat for the occupant includes an airbag having a stored condition within the roof and being inflatable to a deployed condition extending into the cabin and aligned with the seat. The airbag includes a first portion extending along the roof and a second portion extending away from the roof toward the occupant. The second portion being configured to fold away from the occupant in response to occupant penetration into the airbag.

Abstract: A restraint system (10) for helping to protect an occupant (60) of a vehicle (20) having a seat (50) for the occupant (60) includes a primary airbag (70) having a stored condition within a roof (32) and being inflatable to a deployed condition aligned with the seat (50). A support airbag (76) has a stored condition within the roof (32) and is inflatable to a deployed condition engaging the primary airbag (70).

Abstract: A module for a vehicle including a roof and a cabin includes a housing defining a chamber and having an opening in fluid communication with the chamber. The housing is configured for placement in the roof. An airbag is provided in the chamber and is inflatable to a deployed condition extending through the opening into the cabin. A door pivotably connected to the housing closes the opening. The door is pivotable away from the roof in response to deployment of the airbag to provide a reaction surface for the deploying airbag. The door has a first length while closing the opening and a second length greater than the first length when pivoted away from the roof.

Abstract: The invention describes a mounting device (10) for a folded side airbag comprising a receiving portion (12) encompassing the folded part of the airbag (46) in a substantially ring-shaped manner which receiving portion can adopt an inserting state for inserting the airbag (40) and a mounted state in which the mounting device (10) retains the airbag (40) by encompassing the same. The mounting device (10) further includes a flange portion (14) for arranging the mounting device (10) on the car body side which comprises a base plate (26) and a fixing plate (28) being coupled to each other in the mounted state. Moreover, the mounting device (10) includes a partition panel (20) for separating at least one outer layer (44) of the airbag package (46) from the residual airbag package (46) and for clamping the at least one outer layer (44) which between an outer wall (16) of the receiving portion (12) and the separating wall (20) projects into the receiving area (18).
