[0048] With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the automobile passive safety industry is becoming more and more mature. However, when dealing with vehicles with child safety seats, since the child safety seats move the occupants' position forward, the existing side airbags may have difficulty protecting the child seats at the Q3 position.
[0049] Furthermore, since the child safety seat is close to the car door panel, it may be difficult for the side airbag to enter between the child safety seat and the car door panel during the deployment process, resulting in the side airbag being unable to protect the occupant of the child seat.
[0050] Based on this, this specification embodiment proposes a processing solution: Figure 1 As shown, a side air curtain of the present invention is provided by setting a non-inflatable portion 11 to correspond to the B-pillar of the automobile, then providing a first rear protection cavity 12 on one side of the non-inflatable portion 11 close to the rear end of the bag belt, and finally providing a guide stitch 13 on the rear side of the top end of the bag belt to allow gas to quickly enter the first rear protection cavity 12, so that the side air curtain can be quickly deployed at the Q3 position to protect the occupant of the child seat;
[0051] Furthermore, by providing the rear buffer chamber 14 , the inflation time of the first rear protection chamber 12 can be guaranteed, and at the same time, a buffering effect can be played to protect the occupant on the child seat.
[0052] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0053] Example 1
[0054] A side air curtain according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes a bag 10, which includes a non-inflatable portion 11, a first rear protection cavity 12 and a guide stitch 13. The non-inflatable portion 11 extends in the longitudinal direction of the bag 10, and its top end forms a gas passage cavity 25 with the top end of the bag 10, and the non-inflatable portion 11 is used to correspond to the B-pillar of the car; the first rear protection cavity 12 extends in the longitudinal direction of the bag 10, and is located on the side of the non-inflatable portion 11 close to the rear end of the bag 10, and is connected to the gas passage cavity 25; the guide stitch 13 is formed on the rear side of the top end of the bag 10, and is located in the gas passage cavity 25, and is used to guide the airflow to flow to the first rear protection cavity 12; wherein the bag 10 is configured to be rolled up at least in the middle part when it is installed and folded, and in the process of the bag 10 being inflated, unfolded and floating outward, the guide stitch 13 guides the airflow to quickly enter the first rear protection cavity 12 so that the first rear protection cavity 12 is unfolded downward and enters between the car safety seat and the car door panel.
[0055] In the present application, the top end of the bag 10 is the top end when the bag 10 is installed in the car and unfolded downward, the rear end is the part when the bag 10 is installed in the car and located at the rear end of the car body, the front end is the part when the bag 10 is installed in the car and located at the front end of the car body; the bottom end is the bottom end of the bag 10 after it is installed in the car and unfolded.
[0056] The non-inflatable portion 11 is a closed area formed on the bag 10 by stitching.
[0057] After the side air curtain is deployed, the non-inflatable portion 11 is at least arranged corresponding to the B-pillar of the vehicle to facilitate rapid deployment of the side air curtain.
[0058] For example, the middle portion of the bottom end seam of the bag band is configured in a zigzag shape to form a non-inflatable portion 11 in the middle of the bag band.
[0059] The middle part of the bottom seam of the bag band can also be configured as an inverted U-shape, an inverted V-shape or the like.
[0060] The first rear protection cavity 12 is a longitudinal cavity. After the side air curtain is deployed, the first rear protection cavity 12 extends from the top of the bag belt to the bottom of the bag 10 and abuts against the upper edge of the car door panel after deployment.
[0061] The top of the first rear protection cavity 12 is provided with an opening, and is communicated with the gas passage cavity 25 to obtain the gas flowing through the gas passage cavity 25 .
[0062] In some of the embodiments, the first rear protective cavity 12 can extend obliquely from the top of the bag 10 to the rear end of the bag 10 and extend to the bottom end of the bag band to facilitate the flow of gas and avoid direct impact of the gas on the stitches forming the first rear protective cavity 12, resulting in kinetic energy loss or the stitches being broken open.
[0063] The first rear protection cavity 12 at least covers the Q3 position of the side air curtain to protect the occupant on the child safety seat.
[0064] Among them, the guide stitch 13 can be extended from the top stitch part of the bladder 10 to the middle part of the bladder 10, so that when the side air curtain is inflated and unfolded, the guide stitch 13 forms an inner convex portion in the bladder 10, thereby guiding the airflow to flow toward the first rear protective cavity 12 through the inner convex portion.
[0065] The inner convex portion is a portion protruding from the top edge of the pouch 10 toward the inside of the pouch 10 .
[0066] In some of the embodiments, the guide suture 13 may be formed using an additional suture, such as an inclined suture, to adjust the shape of the guide suture 13 and subsequently adjust the shape of the inner protrusion.
[0067] The bag 10 of the present application is at least partially rolled up during installation, so that when the bag 10 is inflated and unfolded, the bag 10 slightly floats outward to enter between the child seat and the car door panel.
[0068] Specifically, when the side air curtain is inflated, the gas first enters the gas passage chamber 25, and then the gas flows to the first rear protection chamber 12 under the obstruction and guidance of the inner convex portion, so that the first rear protection chamber 12 is quickly filled and expanded; and because the folding method of the bag 10 includes rolling, the bag 10 will float slightly outward when expanded, allowing the side air curtain to enter between the child safety seat and the car door panel, so as to protect the occupants in the child seat.
[0069] Furthermore, the side air curtain also includes a rear buffer chamber 14, which is arranged on a side of the first rear protection chamber 12 away from the non-inflatable portion 11 and is connected to the first rear protection chamber 12 so that the gas first flows to the first rear protection chamber 12 to maintain the working pressure of the first rear protection chamber 12; wherein, after the first rear protection chamber 12 is filled with gas, the gas in the first rear protection chamber 12 can flow into the rear buffer chamber 14, so that when the first rear protection chamber 12 is hit, it can be concave to protect the occupants.
[0070] The rear buffer chamber 14 is used to play a buffering role, so that when the first rear protective chamber 12 is collided, the gas in the first rear protective chamber 12 enters the rear buffer chamber 14 .
[0071] Among them, by setting the rear buffer chamber 14 to be connected with the first rear protection chamber 12, the gas first enters the first rear protection chamber 12 and then enters the rear buffer chamber 14, so that the first rear protection chamber 12 can be deployed first, avoiding the gas being diverted to the rear buffer chamber 14 first, resulting in a slow deployment speed of the first rear protection chamber 12. When the output time of the gas generator is long, the gas can also gradually flow to the rear buffer chamber 14 through the first rear protection chamber 12 to extend the inflation time of the first rear protection chamber 12.
[0072] Furthermore, the connection port between the rear buffer cavity 14 and the first rear protective cavity 12 is located in the middle of the first rear protective cavity 12 so that the first rear protective cavity 12 can be deployed first.
[0073] In the present application, the guide suture 13 is located above the first protective cavity and extends in the direction of the first rear protective cavity 12, so that a first air channel 15 is formed between the guide suture 13 and the non-inflatable part 11, and a second air channel 16 is formed between the guide suture 13 and the rear buffer cavity 14; wherein, the first air channel 15 is toward the gas passage cavity 25, and the expansion size of the first air channel 15 is greater than the expansion size of the second air channel 16, and the first air channel 15 is used to guide the airflow to flow toward the first rear protective cavity 12.
[0074] The size of the first air passage 15 is set larger than that of the second air passage 16 , so that the gas first flows to the first rear protection chamber 12 in large quantities under the guidance of the inner convex portion, so that the first rear protection chamber 12 is first deployed to protect the occupant on the child seat.
[0075] In some of the embodiments, the bag 10 includes a rear buffer suture portion 17 and a graded suture portion 18, the rear buffer suture portion 17 is sewn at the rear end of the bag 10, and is spaced apart from the non-inflatable portion 11 to form a first rear protective cavity 12 between the rear buffer suture portion 17 and the non-inflatable portion 11, wherein the rear buffer suture portion 17 is an inverted U-shaped structure as a whole, and cooperates with the bottom suture of the bag 10 to form a rear buffer cavity 14, and a first-level buffer airway 171 is formed on the suture on one side of the rear buffer suture portion 17 close to the first rear protective cavity 12, and the rear buffer cavity 14 passes through the first buffer airway The grading suture portion 18 is sewn on the bag 10 along the longitudinal direction of the bag 10 and is located inside the rear buffer suture portion 17 to separate the rear buffer cavity 14 into a primary rear buffer cavity 181 and a secondary rear buffer cavity 182, and a secondary buffer airway 183 is formed between the grading suture portion 18 and the rear buffer suture portion 17 or the bottom suture of the bag 10, wherein the primary rear buffer cavity 181 is communicated with the first rear protection cavity 12 through the primary buffer airway 171, and is communicated with the secondary rear buffer cavity 182 through the secondary buffer airway 183.
[0076] Among them, the top end of the rear buffer stitching portion 17 can be set to be inclined according to actual needs. For example, the top end of the rear buffer stitching portion 17 is inclined downward from the side close to the middle of the bladder bag 10 to the side close to the rear end of the bladder bag 10 to adjust the air intake rate or the expansion size of the rear side of the top end of the bladder bag 10.
[0077] The suture on one side of the rear buffer suture portion 17 close to the first rear protective cavity 12 is segmented to form a primary buffer airway 171 , and the gas in the first rear protective cavity 12 can flow into the rear buffer cavity 14 through the primary buffer airway 171 .
[0078] The primary buffer air duct 171 may be disposed at the bottom or middle of the first rear protection cavity 12 .
[0079] Among them, the graded suture part 18 can be a suture arranged in sections to form a secondary buffer airway 183, or it can be an integrally sewn suture, which is spaced apart from the rear buffer suture part 17 or the suture at the bottom end of the bag 10 to form a secondary buffer airway 183.
[0080] When the gas enters the rear buffer chamber 14 from the first rear protection chamber 12 , it first enters the first-level rear buffer chamber 181 through the first-level buffer air channel 171 , and then, after the gas is sufficient and the first-level rear buffer chamber 181 expands, the gas enters the second-level rear buffer chamber 182 through the second-level buffer air channel 183 .
[0081] Among them, the first-level rear buffer chamber 181 and the second-level rear buffer chamber 182 can play a secondary buffering role for the first rear protection chamber 12. When dealing with a gas generator with a longer output time, it can ensure that the first rear protection chamber 12 has a longer inflation time, providing sufficient buffering effect for the first rear protection chamber.
[0082] Furthermore, the bag 10 also includes a lock sewing portion 19, which is sewn on the bag 10 and located in the secondary rear buffer cavity 182, and is used to limit the unfolded thickness of the secondary rear buffer cavity 182 to prevent the secondary rear buffer cavity 182 from expanding too thick, resulting in squeezing the child seat and pushing the child seat to tilt.
[0083] Among them, the lock sewing part 19 can be set to multiple according to needs, and is arranged at intervals along the length direction of the secondary rear buffer cavity 182.
[0084] In some of the embodiments, a lock sewing portion 19 may also be provided in the primary rear buffer cavity 181 to limit the thickness of the primary rear buffer cavity 181 or to limit the rate at which gas flows to the secondary rear buffer cavity 182 .
[0085] Furthermore, a second rear protection cavity 20 is formed between the rear buffer suture portion 17 and the rear end suture of the bladder bag 10 , and the second rear protection cavity 20 is longitudinally arranged. The second rear protection cavity 20 is connected to the gas passage cavity 25 through the first airway 15 .
[0086] The second rear protection cavity 20 is longitudinally arranged at the rear end of the pouch 10 to provide protection.
[0087] Furthermore, the bladder bag 10 further includes a front buffer cavity 21 , which is disposed at the front end of the bladder bag 10 along the longitudinal direction of the bladder bag 10 , and a front protective cavity 22 is formed between the front buffer cavity 21 and the non-inflatable portion 11 .
[0088] The front protection cavity 22 is used to protect the front row occupants, and the front buffer cavity 21 is used to protect the front protection cavity 22 .
[0089] Specifically, after the gas enters the front protection cavity 22 , if the front protection cavity 22 is collided, the gas in the front protection cavity 22 can flow into the front buffer cavity 21 , thereby preventing the front protection cavity 22 from being too rigid and hurting the occupants.
[0090] Specifically, the bag 10 includes a first front suture portion 23 and a second front suture portion 24 connected to the first front suture portion 23; the first front suture portion 23 is in a U-shaped structure to form a first front buffer cavity 21 at the front end of the bag 10, and the two ends of the first front suture portion 23 are spaced apart from the top suture of the bag 10 to form a first front airway 231 of the first front buffer cavity 21; the second front suture portion 24 is bent and extended downward from one end of the first front suture portion 23 close to the non-inflatable portion 11 to form a second front buffer cavity 21 between the second front suture portion 24 and the first front suture portion 23, and its bottom end is close to the bottom end of the first front suture portion 23 to form a second front airway 241 of the second front buffer cavity 21 between the bottom end of the second front suture portion 24 and the first front suture portion 23.
[0091] There is a gap between the front end of the first front suture portion 23 and the front end suture of the bladder bag 10 to form another air intake channel, so that the gas can enter the first front buffer cavity 21 from the front protection cavity 22 .
[0092] There is a preset distance between the bottom end of the second front stitching portion 24 and the bottom end of the stitching of the bladder bag 10 , so that the lower half of the bladder bag 10 expands into a transverse cavity to receive the occupant's head in a collision event.
[0093] In some of the embodiments, the first front suture portion 23 and the second front suture portion 24 are arranged in an M-shaped structure, and there is a gap between the first front suture portion 23 and the second front suture portion 24 and the top suture of the bag 10 to form the first front air channel 231 and the second front air channel 241.
[0094] The side air curtain of the present application is provided with a guide seam 13 and the middle part of the side air curtain is set to be rolled up, so that the air bag can float slightly outward after being deployed and smoothly enter the gap between the car door panel and the child seat. Then, with the design of the secondary buffer area of the rear buffer cavity 14, the air bag can maintain a certain pressure to ensure that the side air curtain supports the occupant.
[0095] This embodiment sets the middle part of the side air curtain to be folded, thereby ensuring that the side air curtain floats outward. During the floating process of the side air curtain, the airflow quickly enters the first rear protection cavity 12 under the action of the guide seam 13, so that the first rear protection cavity 12 is quickly unfolded, so that the side air curtain enters between the child seat and the car door panel, and protects the occupant in the child seat at the same time.
[0096] Example 2
[0097] like Figure 3As shown, the present invention also provides a safety airbag, comprising a side air curtain and an air guide bag as described in any one of Example 1, wherein the air guide bag is arranged in the side air curtain, and an air outlet of the air guide bag is facing the guide seam 13 and the rear buffer cavity 14 of the side air curtain; wherein the side air curtain is configured to be folded in a Z-fold and roll-fold form.
[0098] Specifically, the side curtain airbag is configured to be folded in a Z-fold and a roll-fold form.
[0099] The mature folding scheme of the airbag 1Z fold + rolling fold of the present embodiment designs a concave shape (guide stitch 13) above the airbag Q3 position to guide more gas into the Q3 cavity (the first rear protection cavity 12 body) and produce a slightly outward expansion effect, so that the airway can be deployed more quickly and can smoothly enter between the child seat and the car door panel, thereby playing a buffering role earlier. And because of the stricter regulations, in view of FMVSS226 (purpose: to reduce the damage to the occupant's head in the window area in rollover and side collision accidents; requirement: after the airbag is deployed (1.5s&6s), the human head hits the airbag at a certain speed, and the airbag does not exceed 100mm from the window) and Audi's stricter requirements for this item (the requirements must also be met under the condition that the airbag is pushed out of the window; so the airbag design requires a large vertical cavity for effective support. At the same time, considering that the generator output time is long and the airbag protection range is large, resulting in a large airbag volume, a multi-stage inflation buffer zone is set in the airbag, so that when a collision occurs, the airbag maintains a certain working pressure within the effective working time (40-70ms), ensuring that the airbag can meet the requirements of FMVSS226 after it is fully filled.
[0100] The safety airbag of the present invention can make the side air curtain quickly unfold and enter between the child seat and the car door panel by controlling the direction of airflow and the deployment direction of the airbag. A plurality of large longitudinal cavities are arranged on the side air curtain (the deployment thickness of the first rear protection cavity 12 and the second rear protection cavity 20 is recommended to be more than 130 mm), which can also ensure that the side air curtain has strong support. The airbag is provided with a multi-stage inflation buffer zone, so that the larger side air curtain can maintain a certain working pressure within the effective working time (40ms~70ms) when used with a generator with a longer output time.
