The cold end of the cooling fin 362 is attached to the graphite plate 361, and the cooling fin 362 is controlled to work. The heat transfer between the graphite plate 361 and the heat exchange fin 363 can quickly cool the coolant inside the storage cylinder 36, and the gas produced in the sealing cylinder 2 will flow through the inner cavity of the copper tube 34. In the process, the coolant will exchange heat with the gas to fully reduce the temperature of the gas to ensure the safety of the passengers.
[0027] As an implementation method in this embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, a groove 364 is provided on the outer surface of the storage cylinder 36, and a patch temperature sensor 365 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the groove 364.

The right side of the honeycomb plate 35 is fixedly connected to the receiving cylinder 37, and the right side of the receiving cylinder 37 is fixedly connected to the flange output pipe 38. A sleeve ring 33 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the shunt cylinder 32, and a conductive wire 331 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sleeve ring 33. The end of the conductive wire 331 away from the sleeve ring 33 is fixedly connected to a clamp 332, and a splicing piece 333 is welded on the outer wall of the clamp 332. An external wire 334 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the clamp 332. The patch temperature sensor 365 is an existing structural model that can be selected as WRNT-CY-08. The chip temperature sensor 365 can monitor the temperature of the coolant inside the storage tube 36. After reaching the preset value, the refrigeration plate 362 is controlled by the external controller to suspend work to save electricity.

[0028] As an implementation method in this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the gas processing mechanism 3 also includes a closed ring 31, which is fixedly mounted on the right side of the mounting bracket 1, and a diverter tube 32 is fixedly connected to the right side of the closed ring 31.

The outer wall is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sealing cylinder 2, a honeycomb hole 313 is opened on the side of the partition 312, a second connecting leg 314 is fixedly connected to the left side of the partition 312, and an edge filter plate 315 is fixedly connected to the left end of the second connecting leg 314. A closing block 21 is fixedly installed on the left side of the inner wall of the sealing cylinder 2, and an igniter 22 is fixedly connected to the right side of the closing block 21. A first spacer ring 23 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sealing cylinder 2, and a second spacer ring 23 located on the right side of the first spacer ring 23 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sealing cylinder 2. The inner walls of the first and second spacer rings 23 and 24 are fixedly connected with a bursting membrane 25. The inner cavity of the sealing cylinder 2 is filled with an inflator located between the first and second spacer rings 23 and 24. There is a certain gap between the edge filter plate 315 and the inner wall of the sealing cylinder 2, which can complete the primary filtration of the gas. The cooperation of the partition plate 312 and the honeycomb hole 313 can complete the secondary filtration of the gas. The design of the sponge filter cartridge 317 can complete the tertiary filtration of the gas to avoid the problem that the impurities in the gas will easily cause damage to the airbag.

[0029] Working principle: The refrigeration plate 362 is controlled to work intermittently to cool the coolant inside the storage cylinder 36. The igniter 22 is controlled by the electronic control unit of the vehicle computer. When a collision occurs, the igniter 22 is controlled to work, breaking through the left bursting membrane 25 to ignite the inflator, and the inflator then generates gas. The air pressure pushes the right bursting membrane 25 to be damaged, thereby releasing the gas. After the gas is filtered three times by the components connected by the closed ring 31, the gas will flow through the copper tube 34 and be cooled by the coolant. The airbag input pipe is pre-connected with the flange output pipe 38 to allow the gas to rush into the interior of the airbag.
[0030] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it.
