Abstract

A vehicle includes a first seat and a second seat occupying a vehicle body, a battery pack disposed between the first seat and the second seat, a first inboard airbag, and a second inboard airbag, andoptionally a first outboard airbag and a second outboard airbag. The airbags are deployable from a packed position to or between an inflated position. The first inboard airbag is configured to deployand occupy a space between the first seat and the battery pack, the first outboard airbag is configured to deploy and occupy a space between the first seat and the first side of the vehicle body, thesecond inboard airbag is configured to deploy and occupy a space between the second seat and the battery pack, and the second outboard airbag is configured to deploy and occupy a space between the second seat and the second side of the vehicle body.

Description

Background technique [0001] Many types of vehicles employ battery packs for propulsion purposes. Battery packs are susceptible to damage during traumatic events such as vehicle crashes. Contents of the invention [0002] A vehicle is provided, comprising: a vehicle body defining a compartment and having a first side and a second side; a first seat and a second seat disposed within the compartment, wherein the first seat and the second each of the seats includes an inner side and an outer side, and a first seat may be biased toward a first side of the vehicle and a second seat may be biased toward a second side of the vehicle; a battery pack at least partially disposed on the Between the first seat and the second seat; a first inner airbag; a first outer airbag; a second inner airbag; and a second outer airbag. The first inboard airbag, the first outboard airbag, the second inboard airbag, and the second outboard airbag may each deploy from a compressed position to an infla...
