Abstract

In response to an applied force, a speaker system is configured to deploy from a confined area so as to function as a pelvis pusher. Additionally, portions of the speaker system are configured to collapse upon the application of the force so as to absorb the force.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a loudspeaker system for a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Due to safety concerns and government regulations, motor vehicle doors are designed to mitigate the effects of a side impact event. During a side impact, the chest and abdomen area of ​​the occupant can be exposed to undesirably high pressures. To reduce the effects of side impacts, conventional motor vehicle doors may include foam or spacers as pelvis pushers or bolsters. The pelvic pusher interacts with and assists in pushing the occupant in part with the occupant's pelvic region to reduce stress and minimize unwanted contact with intruding doors. The addition of a pelvic push block requires additional packaging considerations that conflict with the use of door trim and the cost of the motor vehicle. Therefore, it would be desirable to utilize existing door assemblies / devices (eg speaker systems for the doors) to function in their native fa...
