Embodiment Construction

[0029] The airbag 10 is installed in the motor vehicle 23 as the head airbag 10 for protecting the occupant of the motor vehicle 23 from injury in the event of an accident. Here, the head airbag 10 is installed on the upper part of the A-, B- and C-pillars 5 , 6 , 7 on the vehicle structure 8 designed as the body 9 , which are installed as side panel parts on the interior trim 22 and the body 9 . Between the A-pillars, B-pillars and C-pillars 5, 6, 7 upper part. The airbag 10 also extends here as far as the C-pillar of the motor vehicle ( figure 1 and image 3 ). The interior trim 22 is designed as a side interior trim 2 on the C-pillar 7 .

[0030] In addition to the side interior trim 2 for covering the C-pillar 7 , the side interior trim system 1 also includes a connecting piece 14 for establishing a detachable connection between the side interior trim 2 and the C-pillar 7 . The side trim 2 is designed here as two parts with a first part 3 and a second part 4 ( figure ...

Abstract

A side paneling system 1 for a pillar 7 of a motor vehicle, comprises a side paneling part 2 for covering the pillar and an airbag 10 arranged between the side paneling part and the pillar, at least one connecting element 14, 17 for releasably connecting the side paneling part to the pillar so that as the airbag is activated the side paneling part can move away from the pillar with the airbag, and a catch band or strap 11 that is indirectly or directly connected to the side paneling part, so that the side paneling part is indirectly or directly fastened to the pillar with the catch band even when the airbag is activated and the connecting element 14 is released, wherein the side paneling part has a first part 3 and a second part 4, and only the second part can move away from the pillar with the airbag. The airbag may be for protecting a persons head, and may be located adjacent an A or C pillar. A method of securing the paneling system in a vehicle is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a side interior trim system, a method of manufacturing a motor vehicle, and a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Head airbags are installed in motor vehicles to protect passengers in the event of an accident. Here, the head airbag is arranged between the A-pillar and the C-pillar of the motor vehicle on the side panel of the body. As a result, in the non-activated state, the airbag is arranged between the interior trim and the body. In the event of an accident, the inflator on the B-pillar is activated inside the inflator housing and the airbags inflate. Here, too, the head airbag is guided to the C-pillar, so that when the airbags are activated and inflated, the interior trim on the C-pillar, ie the airbags whose side interior trims are activated, are released from the C-pillar. In this case, the side interior trim is connected to the column by means of a releasable connection, so that the releasable conne...
