  • Patent number: 6325412
    Abstract: A fasten-on air bag device comprises an air bag housing which is attachable to the seat restraints and can be fastened-on by occupant; a crash sensing system for sensing and evaluating the crash data; an inflator installed inside the air bag housing, a plug-in signal-transmission receptacle and a detachable plug affixed to the air bag housing. By coupling with the plug-in signal transmission receptacle, the fasten-on air bag device can be utilized not only on the front seats but also the rear seats, and can be applied on all kinds of vehicles such as cars, buses, trains and airplanes. The direction of explosion is guided by the guiding core to assure the deployment of the air bag go outward and forward away from the occupant's body instead of aiming toward the occupant's body. In addition, the protective shield lining and the spread plastic lobes further protect the occupant's body. Therefore, the explosive expansion of the air bag would less likely cause harm to the occupant.

  • Patent number: 5924726
    Abstract: A fasten-on supplemental restraint system comprising a detecting circuitry and an air bag assembly is provided. The supplemental restraint system is independently located in the vehicle and works with the existing safety belt system. The supplemental restraint system can be readily attached by means of buckle so that the air bag assembly can be readily placed in front of the driver/passenger. Once the air bag body of the air bag assembly is inflated, the direction of expansion is directed forward and outward from the driver/passenger. With this arrangement, the potential risk of being injured by the deployment of the air bag body is therefore eliminated.
