[0033] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used in the embodiments of this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art.

[0036] In related technologies, in order to provide protection for second-row occupants during a collision, airbags are installed in the back of the front seats or the back of the second-row seats. When a collision occurs, the airbags installed in the back of the front seats deploy rearward, or the airbags installed in the back of the second-row seats deploy forward, providing forward or side protection for the second-row occupants.

[0037] However, installing airbags on the back of the front or second-row seats takes up a lot of space, reducing the distance between the second-row and front seats. Furthermore, if an airbag collides with an occupant during deployment, it can cause a huge impact and result in injury.

[0038] This application provides a side airbag device for second-row occupants of a car, which can prevent the airbag from colliding with the occupants during deployment when a side collision occurs, thereby providing effective side protection for second-row occupants.

[0039] To make the technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] This application provides an embodiment of a side airbag device for second-row occupants in a car, comprising:

[0041] Airbags are installed between adjacent seats in the second row of a car, such as... Figure 1 The airbag installation location is shown as 1.

[0042] The data acquisition device is used to acquire collision information, vehicle status information, and second-row occupant status information when a side collision occurs and there are occupants in the second row of seats.

[0043] The controller is used to predict the tilt direction and displacement of the second-row occupants based on collision information, vehicle status information, and second-row occupant status information; when the displacement of the second-row occupants is greater than or equal to the distance between the second-row occupants and the tilt side airbag, it determines the time required for the second-row occupants to move to the position of the tilt side airbag; and only when the time required for the second-row occupants to move to the position of the tilt side airbag is greater than the deployment time of the tilt side airbag, it controls the deployment of the tilt side airbag.

[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the airbag is connected to the side frame 2 of the second-row seats; a weakening line is provided on the fabric upholstery of the second-row seats; as shown... Figure 3 As shown, when the vehicle is in a safe driving state, the airbag is in a folded state and located within the fabric upholstery of the second-row seats; when the controller controls the airbag to deploy, the airbag can eject and deploy from the weakening lines, as...Figure 2 As shown.

[0045] The embodiment of the application installs the airbag at the backrest crossbeam of the second-row seat, does not affect the man-machine arrangement of the passenger compartment, and meets the stability and supportability of the airbag cloth 3 in high-speed deployment. In addition, in the normal deployment process of the airbag cloth 3, vertical deployment in the vertical direction can be realized through the design of the airbag bag type, so as to effectively protect the second-row passengers after the airbag is deployed, and better buffer the collision between the passengers. When the vehicle is subjected to side impact, the airbag is rapidly ignited and deployed after receiving the ECU ignition signal, so as to effectively protect the head and chest of the second-row passengers. Meanwhile, the structure of the embodiment of the application is relatively simple, and is worthy of wide promotion.

[0046] As Figure 3 , Figure 4 shown, the airbag includes a gas generator 6, an airbag cloth 3, and an airbag pull belt 7; the gas generator 6 is arranged at the bottom of the airbag cloth 3, and the airbag pull belt 7 is arranged inside the airbag cloth 3; the gas generator 6 is connected with the side frame 2 of the second-row seat of the vehicle, and the gas generator 6 is used to inflate the airbag cloth 3, so that the airbag cloth 3 is ejected and deployed from the weakened line of the fabric skin, and the airbag cloth 3 is divided into upper and lower parts after being deployed, and the volume of the upper part is smaller than that of the lower part; and the airbag cloth 3 is located between the two adjacent seats of the second-row seat after being deployed, and the upper part of the airbag cloth 3 effectively protects and buffers the head of the second-row passenger when the vehicle is subjected to side impact, and the lower part of the airbag cloth 3 effectively protects and buffers the chest of the second-row passenger and absorbs part of the collision energy, thereby providing effective side protection for the second-row passenger.

[0047] The airbag pull belt 7 of the embodiment of the application includes an upper pull belt and a lower pull belt; the upper pull belt is located at the upper part of the airbag cloth and is in a semicircular shape; and the lower pull belt is located at the lower part of the airbag cloth and is in an elliptical shape.

[0048] The inner part of the upper pull belt and the lower pull belt of the embodiment of the application is sewn with a surface cloth.

[0049] As Figure 3 shown, the embodiment of the application is provided with a bolt 5 on the gas generator 6, and the bolt 5 is connected with the side frame 2 of the second-row seat of the vehicle.

[0050] In order to prevent the airbag from colliding with the passenger during the deployment process and forming an impact on the passenger to cause injury to the passenger, the embodiment of the application is further provided with a data acquisition device and a controller; the airbag and the data acquisition device are in communication connection with the controller.

[0051] The data acquisition device is used to acquire collision information, vehicle state information, and second-row passenger state information when the vehicle is subjected to side impact and there is a passenger on the second-row seat.

[0052] The collision information obtained by the data acquisition device in the embodiment of the application comprises a collision position and a collision intensity;

[0053] The vehicle state information obtained by the data acquisition device comprises a position of the vehicle, a speed of the vehicle and an acceleration of the vehicle;

[0054] The second-row passenger state information comprises position information of a seat in the second row where the passenger is located, action information of the passenger and identity feature information of the passenger in the second row, wherein the position information of the seat in the second row where the passenger is located comprises a distance between the passenger and two adjacent airbags on the side of a side collision of the vehicle.

[0055] The second-row passenger state information can be obtained by collecting images of the seat in the second row and the passenger and then analyzing the images.

[0056] The controller is configured to predict a tilting direction of the passenger in the second row and a displacement of the passenger in the second row according to the collision information, the vehicle state information and the second-row passenger state information, determine a time required for the passenger in the second row to move to a position of the airbag on the tilting side when the displacement of the passenger in the second row is greater than or equal to the distance between the passenger in the second row and the airbag on the tilting side, and control the airbag on the tilting side to be deployed only when the time required for the passenger in the second row to move to the position of the airbag on the tilting side is greater than a deployment time of the airbag on the tilting side.

[0057] By predicting the tilting direction of the second-row passenger and the displacement of the second-row passenger, it is determined whether the second-row passenger is likely to collide with the side airbag; according to the displacement of the second-row passenger, it is determined whether the side airbag is likely to collide with the passenger, specifically, when the displacement of the second-row passenger is greater than or equal to the distance between the second-row passenger and the side airbag, it indicates that the passenger is likely to collide with the side airbag, and when the displacement of the second-row passenger is less than the distance between the second-row passenger and the side airbag, it indicates that the second-row passenger will not move to the side airbag, so there will be no collision with the side airbag; after determining that the passenger is likely to collide with the side airbag, further, by the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag, it is determined when the passenger collides with the side airbag, when the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag is greater than the deployment time of the side airbag, it indicates that when the passenger collides with the side airbag, the side airbag has been completely deployed, at this time the collision will provide a buffer for the lateral movement of the passenger and will provide effective protection for the side of the passenger, and when the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag is less than or equal to the deployment time of the side airbag, it indicates that when the passenger collides with the side airbag, the side airbag is in the process of being deployed, in this case, if the side airbag is controlled to be deployed, it will cause impact to the second-row passenger, increasing the risk of injury to the passenger, therefore, the controller of the embodiment only controls the side airbag to be deployed when the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag is greater than the deployment time of the side airbag.

[0058] The controller of the embodiment is configured to predict the tilting direction of the second-row passenger and the displacement of the second-row passenger according to the collision information, the vehicle state information, the second-row passenger state information, and a trained vehicle collision prediction model; the vehicle collision prediction model takes the collision information, the vehicle state information, and the second-row passenger state information as input, takes the tilting direction of the second-row passenger and the displacement of the second-row passenger as output, and is constructed by using a convolutional neural network.

[0059] The controller of the embodiment is configured to determine the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag according to the collision information, the vehicle state information, the second-row passenger state information, the distance between the second-row passenger and the side airbag, the tilting direction of the second-row passenger, the displacement of the second-row passenger, and a trained passenger moving time prediction model; the passenger moving time prediction model takes the collision information, the vehicle state information, the second-row passenger state information, the distance between the second-row passenger and the side airbag, the tilting direction of the second-row passenger, and the displacement of the second-row passenger as input, takes the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the side airbag as output, and is constructed by using a convolutional neural network.

[0060] The controller of the embodiment of the application determines the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the oblique side airbag as the time required for the second-row passenger closest to the oblique side airbag to move to the position of the oblique side airbag, so that the airbag is prevented from colliding with any part of the passenger during the airbag deployment, and the passenger is further prevented from being injured by the impact force during the airbag deployment.

[0061] The embodiment of the application also limits the controller to not control the airbag to be deployed when there is no passenger on the second-row seat, or the displacement of the second-row passenger is less than the distance between the second-row passenger and the oblique side airbag, or the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the oblique side airbag is less than or equal to the deployment time of the oblique side airbag.

[0062] When the displacement of the second-row passenger is less than the distance between the second-row passenger and the oblique side airbag, it indicates that the displacement of the second-row passenger is small and the second-row passenger will not move to contact the oblique side airbag, so the airbag does not need to be deployed; when the time required for the second-row passenger to move to the position of the oblique side airbag is less than or equal to the deployment time of the oblique side airbag, it indicates that the oblique side airbag will collide with the passenger during the deployment of the oblique side airbag, so in order to prevent the impact force during the airbag deployment from causing damage to the passenger, the airbag is not controlled to be deployed.

[0063] The controller in the embodiment of the application is used to determine that the vehicle has a side collision after receiving a side collision signal of the vehicle.

[0064] The embodiment of the application obtains the side collision signal of the vehicle by installing a collision sensor on the side of the vehicle, and the collision sensor is used to detect the collision strength when the vehicle has a side collision, and when the detected collision strength is greater than a set strength threshold, a side collision signal is generated and sent to the controller.

[0065] The embodiment of the application determines whether there is a passenger on the second-row seat by installing a pressure sensor on the second-row seat.

[0066] The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application is characterized in that a safety air bag is arranged between the adjacent seats of the second-row seats of the vehicle, and after the vehicle is subjected to a side collision, whether there is an occupant on the second-row seats, collision information, vehicle state information and second-row occupant state information are monitored, and the inclination direction of the second-row occupant and the displacement of the second-row occupant are predicted according to the monitored data; when the displacement of the second-row occupant is greater than or equal to the distance between the second-row occupant and the inclined side safety air bag, it is determined that there is a possibility of collision between the second-row occupant and the inclined side safety air bag after the inclined side safety air bag is deployed, for this condition, the time required for the second-row occupant to move to the position of the inclined side safety air bag is determined; when the time required for the second-row occupant to move to the position of the inclined side safety air bag is less than or equal to the deployment time of the inclined side safety air bag, it is determined that there is a possibility of collision between the second-row occupant and the inclined side safety air bag during the deployment of the inclined side safety air bag, at this time, in order to avoid secondary injury to the occupant caused by the deployment of the air bag, the air bag is controlled not to be deployed; when the time required for the second-row occupant to move to the position of the inclined side safety air bag is greater than the deployment time of the inclined side safety air bag, it is determined that there is no possibility of collision between the second-row occupant and the inclined side safety air bag during the deployment of the inclined side safety air bag, at this time, the air bag is controlled to be deployed, thereby providing effective protection for the side of the second-row occupant; and the safety air bag is connected with the side frame of the second-row seats of the vehicle, and does not affect the space between the front-row seats and the second-row seats.

[0067] The embodiment of the application further provides a control method of a side safety air bag device for a second-row occupant of a vehicle, comprising the following steps.

[0068] When the vehicle is subjected to a side collision and there is an occupant on the second-row seats, collision information, vehicle state information and second-row occupant state information are acquired;

[0069] According to the collision information, the vehicle state information and the second-row occupant state information, the inclination direction of the second-row occupant and the displacement of the second-row occupant are predicted;

[0070] When the displacement of the second-row occupant is greater than or equal to the distance between the second-row occupant and the inclined side safety air bag, the time required for the second-row occupant to move to the position of the inclined side safety air bag is determined;

[0071] Only when the time required for the second-row occupant to move to the position of the inclined side safety air bag is greater than the deployment time of the inclined side safety air bag, the inclined side safety air bag is controlled to be deployed.

[0072] The above describes the specific embodiments of the application in combination with the drawings, but is not a limitation on the protection scope of the application, and those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical scheme of the application without creative labor are still within the protection scope of the application.
