[0048] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other.

[0049] The present invention provides a safety airbag, which includes an airbag and a gas generator 100, wherein the gas generator 100 is connected to the airbag. The gas generator 100 can quickly generate gas to inflate the airbag, so that the airbag expands quickly, thereby providing sufficient cushioning force to protect passengers.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of a gas generator 100 provided in an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 A gas flow diagram of a gas generator 100 provided in an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 for Figure 1 A partial enlarged view of point A in the middle.

[0051] The gas generator 100 in the airbag will be described in detail below:

[0052] The gas generator 100 includes a cylinder 110, a conduit 120, a gas-producing part 130, an electric explosion unit 140, and a plugging part 150. The conduit 120 is disposed in the cylinder 110. The gas-producing part 130 is located in the conduit 120 and is used to generate gas. The electric explosion unit 140 is connected to the cylinder 110 and is used to ignite the gas-producing part 130. The plugging part 150 is connected to the cylinder 110 and is used to plug the cylinder 110, wherein when the gas-producing part 130 in the conduit 120 burns rapidly to generate gas, the plugging part 150 is damaged by force so that the cylinder 110 is connected to the outside.

[0053] Since the blocking member 150 is connected to the airbag, after the blocking member 150 is damaged by force, the conduit 120 is connected to the airbag, so that gas enters the airbag. It can be understood that the gas generating member 130 in the present invention can quickly generate a large amount of gas after being heated, thereby realizing rapid inflation of the airbag.

[0054] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the cylinder 110 is filled with inert gas to provide a portion of gas, and the inflation pressure is 30-50 MPa. In addition, the inert gas can carry some heat to reduce the temperature of the gas generated by the gas producing part 130. In this embodiment, the cylinder 110 is provided with a through hole, and the staff can fill the cylinder 110 with inert gas through the through hole.

[0055] The working principle of the gas generator 100 is as follows:

[0056] The electric explosion unit 140 is energized to ignite the gas generating member 130. After the gas generating member 130 generates gas, the gas flows along the axis direction of the conduit 120. The gas content in the conduit 120 increases, causing the blocking member 150 to be damaged by force, thereby connecting the cylinder 110 to the outside. Since the airbag is connected to the blocking member 150, the gas flows out of the conduit 120 and enters the airbag, thereby expanding the airbag and providing sufficient buffering force to protect the passengers.

[0057] It should be noted that the present invention eliminates the bursting disc structure in the prior art, thereby making its structure simpler and reducing costs. In addition, since the bursting disc is connected to the inner wall of the cylinder by welding, the sealing is poor and the gas is easily leaked.

[0058] The blocking piece 150 in the present invention is connected to the cylinder 110. It can be understood that the blocking piece 150 is located on the outside of the catheter 120, and the blocking piece 150 covers the port of the catheter 120, thereby improving the sealing performance and the qualified rate of the product, avoiding gas leakage, and ensuring the rapid expansion of the airbag and the safety of frequent passengers.

[0059] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The sealing member 150 is provided with a chamber 151, and the chamber 151 is communicated with the outside; the sealing member 150 includes a sealing portion 152 and a resisting portion 153, and the resisting portion 153 is connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 110; the sealing portion 152 is used to seal the cylinder 110; when the gas-producing member 130 in the conduit 120 burns rapidly to generate gas, the sealing portion 152 is damaged by force, so that the cylinder 110 and the chamber 151 are communicated.

[0060] Specifically, the resisting portion 153 is connected to the airbag, and the chamber 151 is connected to the airbag, so that after the blocking portion 152 is destroyed by force, the catheter 120 and the airbag are connected, so that the gas can enter the chamber 151 from the catheter 120 and then enter the airbag from the chamber 151 to achieve rapid inflation of the airbag.

[0061] It should be noted that after the blocking portion 152 is damaged by force, some fragments will be generated. The present invention uses the blocking portion 153 to prevent the fragments from entering the airbag, thereby damaging the airbag and causing harm to the passengers, thereby improving safety.

[0062] Furthermore, the blocking member 150 in the present invention is integrally processed to reduce welding processes, improve the sealing performance of the blocking member 150 and the qualified rate of the product, thereby avoiding gas leakage and guiding the gas into the airbag so that the airbag can expand quickly to protect the passengers.

[0063] Based on the above, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 In an embodiment of the present invention, the gas generator 100 further includes a needle 160, at least a portion of which is located in the conduit 120; wherein, during the process of rapid combustion of the gas producing part 130 to generate gas, the needle 160 moves toward the blocking portion 152 and punctures the blocking portion 152 to connect the cylinder 110 with the chamber 151.

[0064] It can be understood that after the gas-generating part 130 is heated to generate gas, the gas drives the needle 160 to move along the axis of the catheter 120 toward the direction of the blocking portion 152, thereby causing the needle 160 to pierce the blocking portion 152, that is, the blocking portion 152 is destroyed by the piercing force of the needle 160, so that the catheter 120 and the chamber 151 are connected, and the gas enters the chamber 151 from the catheter 120, and then enters the airbag to expand the airbag.

[0065] According to the above structure, the gas generator 100 further includes a throttle valve 170, which is located in the cylinder 110 and connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 110 and the blocking member 150. The throttle valve 170 has a cavity 171, and the throttle valve 170 is provided with a second through hole 172, and the cavity 171 is connected to the cylinder 110 through the second through hole 172. When the needle 160 moves toward the blocking portion 152, the first through hole 121 is opened so that the conduit 120 is connected to the cylinder 110; the needle 160 pierces the blocking portion 152 so that the cavity 171 is connected to the chamber 151.

[0066] Specifically, when the electric explosion unit 140 does not ignite the drug-producing part, the needle 160 blocks the first through hole 121, so that the conduit 120 is in a closed state. After the drug-producing part is heated to generate gas, the needle 160 moves along the axial direction of the conduit 120 driven by the gas, so that the first through hole 121 is opened, and then the gas can flow into the cylinder 110 through the first through hole 121.

[0067] It should be noted that, since the gas generating member 130 in this embodiment uses chemicals, during the flow process, in addition to the gas generated by the gas generating member 130, some solids will also flow out simultaneously. In this embodiment, the throttle valve 170 is set to make the gas and the solids produce a baffle, that is, due to the difference in mass between the solids and the gas, the solids and the gas turn at different positions, so that the solids are retained, thereby achieving the purpose of filtering.

[0068] Thus, the gas flows through the conduit 120, the first through hole 121, the cylinder 110, the second through hole 172, the cavity 171 and the chamber 151 in sequence, and finally flows into the airbag, thereby achieving rapid inflation of the airbag.

[0069] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 8 , Figure 4 A cross-sectional view of a gas generator 100 provided in another embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 A gas flow diagram of a gas generator 100 provided for other embodiments of the present invention; Figure 6 A cross-sectional view of a sealing member 150 of a gas generator 100 provided in another embodiment of the present invention; Figure 7 for Figure 4 A partial enlarged view of point B in the middle; Figure 8 A schematic structural diagram of a sealing portion 152 of a gas generator 100 provided in another embodiment of the present invention.

[0070] In other embodiments of the present invention, the sealing portion 152 is provided with an annular groove 154. When the gas-producing component 130 in the conduit 120 burns rapidly to generate gas, the annular groove 154 breaks so that the cylinder 110 and the chamber 151 are connected; the diameter of the annular groove 154 is larger than the diameter of the port of the conduit 120.

[0071] It is understandable that the thickness of the annular groove 154 is less than the thickness of other parts of the blocking portion 152, so that the stress that the annular groove 154 can withstand is less than that of other parts. When the gas-generating part 130 is heated, a large amount of gas is generated. When the gas contacts the blocking part 150, it applies a certain pressure to the blocking part 150. Since the pressure applied by the gas to the blocking part 150 is greater than the pressure that the blocking part 150 can withstand, the blocking part 150 is broken. In addition, since the stress that the annular groove 154 can withstand is less than that of other parts, the blocking part 150 will crack at the annular groove 154, thereby forming an opening, and the cylinder 110 and the conduit 120 are connected to the chamber 151 through the opening, so that the gas can flow into the airbag.

[0072] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the diameter of the annular groove 154 is larger than the conduit 120 , so that the pressure applied by the gas is concentrated at the center of the annular groove 154 , thereby causing the blocking member 150 to break at the annular groove 154 .

[0073] Based on the above settings, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 9 , Fig. 9 for Figure 4The enlarged view of the part at C in the middle. The conduit 120 includes a first pipe 122 and a second pipe 123, the first pipe 122 and the second pipe 123 are connected; the gas producing part 130 is accommodated in the first pipe 122, and the second pipe 123 is used to transport gas; the connection between the first pipe 122 and the second pipe 123 is provided with a protrusion 124 protruding toward the axis of the first pipe 122, and the protrusion 124 abuts against the gas producing part 130.

[0074] Specifically, in this embodiment, at least part of the needle 160 is located in the second pipe 123 . The second pipe 123 is provided with a first through hole 121 . The needle 160 is used to close or open the first through hole 121 .

[0075] It should be noted that the gas generating member 130 in this embodiment uses a mesoporous drug, the outer diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the first pipe 122, and after being installed, it is concentric with the first pipe 122. The mesoporous drug serves as an exhaust channel, and the gas after combustion is discharged from the mesoporous drug.

[0076] In order to prevent the gas-producing component 130 from moving along the axis of the first pipe 122 with the gas, a protrusion 124 is provided to abut against the gas-producing component 130 to limit the position of the gas-producing component 130, thereby preventing the distance between the electric explosion units 140 from being too large, resulting in insufficient combustion of the gas-producing component 130 or failure to ignite the gas-producing component 130, thereby causing the airbag to fail to inflate and cause harm to the passengers.

[0077] In this embodiment, the axis of the first pipe 122 coincides with the axis of the second pipe 123 , thereby increasing the flow velocity of the gas to achieve rapid inflation of the airbag.

[0078] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 10 , Fig.10 for Figure 1 The partial enlarged view of the D in the middle. The electric explosion unit 140 includes a partition 141 and an injection-molded electric explosion tube 143, the partition 141 is connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 110; the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 is located on the side of the partition 141 away from the guide tube 120, and the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 is connected to the partition 141; the partition 141 is provided with a receiving groove 101 for receiving the charge 142, and the receiving groove 101 is connected to the first pipeline 122; the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 is used to receive the charge.

[0079] Specifically, the accommodating groove 101 is arranged on a side away from the injection-molded electric detonator 143 . It can be understood that the charging charge and the receiving charge 142 are respectively located on opposite sides of the partition 141 , that is, the charging charge and the receiving charge 142 are separated by the partition 141 .

[0080] After receiving the current pulse signal, the injection-molded electric detonator 143 uses the charge to detonate to generate a shock wave for the partition 141. The charge 142 in the receiving groove 101 is stimulated by the shock wave, thereby igniting the gas-producing component 130, and then the gas-producing component 130 is heated to generate a large amount of gas.

[0081] It should be noted that injection molded electric squib 143 needs to be close to partition 141 to eliminate the influence of the gap on the shock wave, and the amount of the applied medicine in injection molded electric squib 143 needs to be within a margin of 75% or 125%.

[0082] The types of the receiving charge 142 are the receiving charge 1421 and the main charge 1422. The receiving charge 1421 is ultrafine A5, hexanitrostilbene, JO-11C, etc., which is used as the agent for shock wave excitation and ignition. The main charge 1422 is composed of metal powder and oxidant such as aluminum powder, iron powder, titanium powder, boron powder, and oxidant. The main charge 1422 is used to provide energy and ignite the gas generating charge.

[0083] According to the above configuration, in this embodiment, the electric explosion unit 140 further includes a seal 144, which is connected to the partition 141 and is used to block the port of the receiving tank 101. It should be noted that the seal 144 in this embodiment is an aluminum foil. Since the receiving charge 142 is a powder-converted drug, in order to prevent the receiving charge 142 from being dispersed and mixed with the gas-generating part 130 to affect the gas production efficiency, the aluminum foil is set to separate the two, so that the receiving tank 101 and the conduit 120 are closed. After being impacted by the shock wave, the aluminum foil breaks.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 11 , Fig.11 A schematic diagram of the structure of the metal core 145 provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The electric explosion unit 140 also includes a metal core 145, which is sleeved on the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 to strengthen the strength of the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 and prevent the injection-molded electric explosion tube 143 from detaching after being impacted by the shock wave. Since gas is generated after the chemical reaction of the applied medicine occurs, a plurality of exhaust grooves 1451 arranged circumferentially around the axis of the metal core 145 are required to be provided to facilitate the exhaust of gas.

[0085] The steps for installing the gas generator 100 provided in the embodiment of the present invention are as follows:

[0086] 1. Place the injection-molded electric squib 143 close to the partition 141 and securely connect the injection-molded electric squib 143 and the partition 141.

[0100] In summary, the gas generator 100 quickly generates gas by arranging a gas-producing component 130 in the conduit 120 and using the electric explosion unit 140 to ignite the gas-producing component 130. Before the gas fills the conduit 120, the blocking component 150 blocks the cylinder 110 to ensure the sealing of the conduit 120 and prevent gas leakage. When the gas fills the conduit 120, the blocking component 150 is subjected to force, causing itself to be destroyed under the action of the force, thereby connecting the cylinder 110 to the outside world and allowing the gas to flow to the outside world. The gas generator 100 reduces structures such as bursting discs, has a simpler structure, lower cost, and improves sealing, prevents gas leakage, and thus achieves rapid inflation of the airbag.
