Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to a distal side airbag cover structure. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, users have increasingly higher requirements for automobile safety. In addition to active safety, they have also put forward higher requirements for passive safety, especially the configuration rate of airbags. In order to meet the domestic and international NCAP five-star safety requirements, the configuration rate of far-side airbags in the whole vehicle has been continuously improved. The far-side airbags are deployed from the side wing of the seat and have a side protection function. They can prevent the driver from swinging sideways due to lateral acceleration and inertial collision with the seat or occupants on the other side. At the same time, they can also limit the distance of the driver or front passenger being thrown sideways to protect the neck of the occupant. Adding far-side airbags to the front seats poses a great challenge to the seats with limited space in the original size and the gap between the seats and the auxiliary instrument panel. How to ensure the structural matching of the airbags and seats while meeting the safety performance of the whole vehicle is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0003] The far side airbags on the market are usually arranged in the seat near the side of the auxiliary instrument panel, and the airbags are fixed on the seat frame in the Y direction, which has the following defects: 1. After the thickness of the airbag is added to the thickness of the seat foam and the cover, the seat CAS surface has insufficient clearance from the auxiliary instrument panel, or even interference; 2. Since the far side airbag module is large in size and installed inside the seat, when the seat cover has a certain covering force, the airbag will react to the seat cover, thereby affecting the appearance of the seat. Therefore, a new far side airbag cover structure is needed. Utility Model Content
