Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile passive safety, in particular to an air guide device for a curtain air bag. Background Art
[0002] The curtain airbag is an auxiliary protection device in the vehicle's airbag system. When the vehicle collides with an obstacle from the side during driving, the vehicle's airbag system is activated and the generator in the curtain airbag inflates the airbag to make it pop out and deploy instantly, thereby forming a flexible buffer body that acts as a cushion between the driver and the equipment in the vehicle, reducing the impact force on the driver and the passengers, thereby reducing the injuries to the driver and the passengers.
[0003] The latest protection regulations require that the airbag cannot be deflated immediately in a short period of time. Specifically, the pressure of the curtain airbag must still be greater than 50% 6S after the collision, so as to further improve the vehicle's safety factor. This puts higher requirements on the sealing between the generator and the air guide device of the curtain airbag. Therefore, ensuring the sealing between the generator and the air guide device has become the key to achieving the requirements of the latest protection regulations. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in combination with the implementation mode and the accompanying drawings. Here, the schematic implementation mode of the utility model and its description are used to explain the utility model, but are not used as a limitation of the utility model.
[0022] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 The utility model provides an air guide device for a curtain airbag, comprising an airbag reinforcement sheet 10, an airbag lining sheet 20 and an air guide sheet 30. The airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are all provided with positioning and sewing protrusions, and the positioning and sewing protrusions are symmetrically structured with a folding line 40. The airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are laid flat and stacked from top to bottom in a manner that the positioning and sewing protrusions are aligned, and after being laid flat and stacked, they are folded along the folding line 40 to form a folded structure. In the folded structure, the interfaces of the overlapping areas of the air guide sheet 30 and the airbag lining sheet 20 along the folding direction are sewn and fixed by sewing thread to form a sealed channel with an opening 300; the positioning and sewing protrusions in the airbag lining sheet 20 are provided with a connecting hole 201 for the generator bracket to pass through, and the horizontal overlapping straight edges formed by the positioning and sewing protrusions after the airbag lining sheet 20 is folded along the folding line 40 are sewn and fixed by a single sewing thread 70.
[0023] In implementation, see Figure 1-Figure 3The positioning and sewing protrusions in the airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are used for stacking positioning and sewing fixation, and include a flange 400 and a notch 500. The flanges 400 are all located on the same side. The notch 500 in the airbag reinforcement sheet 10 is located on the opposite side of the flange 400. The notches 500 are connected on both sides of the flange 400 in the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30, and the notches 500 are arranged on the opposite side of the flange 400. When making, the airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 with positioning and sewing protrusions are cut out according to the structure shown in the figure using textiles. The three are positioned and laid flat by the protrusions from top to bottom in order, and then the overlapping areas of the three are sewn and fixed, such as Figure 4 The dotted line portion is the sewing line; the airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are folded in half along the folding line 40 after being fixedly connected, and the interface of the area folded in half and overlapping along the folding line 40 is sewn and connected to form a closed channel with three openings 300, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side edges of the airbag lining 20 and the air guide plate 30 are sewn together with the first sewing thread 50, and the notch position of the airbag lining 20 is sewn together with the second sewing thread 60. The interface positions at these two locations are subject to greater airflow impact during the deployment of the curtain airbag, and the second sewing thread 60 is at a bend. With the impact of the airflow and the stress concentration, multiple layers of sewing threads are required for reinforced sewing; the horizontally overlapping straight edges formed by the flange of the airbag lining 20 are sewn and fixed by a single sewing thread 70.
[0024] In a specific implementation, see Figure 2 , a connecting piece is provided extending outward from the positioning and sewing protrusion in the airbag lining 20, and the connecting piece is symmetrically structured with the folding line 40. The connecting hole 201 is provided on the connecting piece. After the airbag lining 20 is folded along the folding line 40, the horizontal overlapping straight edges formed by the connecting piece are sewn and fixed by a single sewing thread 70; the design of the connecting hole 201 can ensure that when the generator 200, the generator bracket 80 and the air guide device are connected together, the relative position and matching size of the generator 200 relative to the air guide device and the generator bracket 80 are guaranteed, so that the assembly consistency is better; in addition, the turning part of the air guide device is reinforced with multiple sewing threads, and the horizontal straight edge is connected with a single sewing thread 70. The air guide device ensures that there are not too many stitches at the interface, so as to avoid the air guide device and the generator 200 and the generator bracket 80. The gap is too large at the position where the first clamp 90 and the second clamp 100 are clamped, resulting in poor sealing of the entire curtain airbag.
[0025] See also Figure 4 After the airbag reinforcement sheet 10, the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are laid flat and stacked, the edges of the overlapping areas are sewn and fixed into an integrated structure by sewing thread.
[0026] The airbag reinforcement sheet 10 can be composed of a first reinforcement sheet 101 and a second reinforcement sheet 102, and the outer contour of the airbag reinforcement sheet 10 is in a contoured structure with the outer contour of the airbag lining sheet 20. The airbag reinforcement sheet 10 is in contact with the generator 200 and the airbag reinforcement sheet 10 wraps the air outlet of the generator 200. The airbag reinforcement sheet 10 plays a role of heat insulation and flame retardancy. According to the impact force of the air outlet of the generator 200, the number of airbag reinforcement sheets 10 can be appropriately increased or decreased.
[0027] The airbag reinforcement sheet 10 , the airbag lining sheet 20 and the air guide sheet 30 are all textile fabrics with coatings, and after being folded along the folding line 40 , the coating side is located on the inner side.
[0028] The positioning and sewing protrusions are triangular or semicircular.
[0029] The solution provided by the utility model is that the airbag lining in the air guide device is folded along the folding line to be positioned and the horizontal overlapping straight edges formed by the sewing protrusions are sewn by a single sewing thread, that is, the sewing thread at the clamping position of the clamp in the bracket is reduced, so that the generator, the air guide device and the clamp fit more closely, the sealing is better and the pressure is stable; the connection holes are added in the airbag lining to ensure the relative positions of the air guide device, the generator and the bracket for assembly, and the matching size consistency is better, so that the curtain airbag has good air and pressure retention capabilities, ensuring that the curtain airbag still has a certain pressure after a vehicle collision, thereby improving the safety factor of the vehicle.
[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
