[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle parts, in particular to a mesh structure for a safety airbag frame. At the same time, the utility model also relates to a safety airbag frame provided with the mesh structure for the safety airbag frame, and a vehicle provided with the safety airbag frame. Background Art
[0002] The mesh of the instrument panel safety airbag frame is an indispensable part of the vehicle safety system. It is usually made of high-strength, high-temperature resistant, and low-permeability fiber materials, with a multi-layer structure and special design. And the mesh of the instrument panel safety airbag frame is usually installed inside the instrument panel, closely around the airbag module. The main function of the mesh is that when a vehicle collision occurs, the sensor detects the collision signal and triggers the igniter to detonate the gas generator, so that the airbag quickly inflates and expands. The mesh plays a key supporting and restraining role in this process, and can act as a hinge through its functional area to ensure that the airbag can deploy in a predetermined direction and shape, and effectively prevent debris or sundries from splashing, thereby protecting passengers from harm.
[0003] In the prior art, the functional area of a kind of mesh is usually fixed by gluing. During the production process, the bonding of the functional area that plays the hinge function is not controlled, and only the glue that shapes the mesh is used to realize the bonding of the functional area of the mesh. Therefore, the functional area is frequently debonded during the use of the mesh, which easily affects the normal deployment of the airbag. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] In view of this, the utility model aims to propose a mesh structure for a safety airbag frame to prevent the hinge part from detaching from the side plate and affecting the deployment of the airbag.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:
[0006] A mesh structure for a safety airbag frame includes a structural body, and the structural body includes a top plate and side plates arranged on two opposite sides of the top plate;

[0038] The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0039] The instrument panel airbag frame is an important part of the vehicle safety system, mainly located in the front passenger side area of the instrument panel, and is used to install and fix the passenger side airbag. The mesh of the instrument panel airbag frame can act as a hinge through its functional area, and cooperate with the deployment of the airbag to ensure that the airbag can be inflated quickly and completely, and prevent debris or other sundries from splashing. In view of the problem that the functional area of the mesh in the prior art that plays the hinge function often comes unstuck during use, which affects the deployment of the airbag. Therefore, this embodiment specifically proposes a new mesh structure for the airbag frame.
[0040] The mesh structure for an airbag frame in this embodiment includes a structural body, which includes a top plate 1 and side plates 2 provided on two opposite sides of the top plate 1. Among them, a hinge portion 3 is provided at one end of the side plate 2 close to the top plate 1. Among them, the hinge portion 3 is folded on one side of the side plate 2, and the closed end of the hinge portion 3 is sewn to the side plate 2 through a stitch 4. When the top plate 1 is pushed, the stitch 4 can be damaged to expand synchronously with the hinge portion 3.
[0041] The mesh structure for an airbag frame in this embodiment, by including the top plate 1 and the side plates 2 provided on two opposite sides of the top plate 1, can better adapt to the airbag frame in the prior art and is convenient for injection molding with the airbag frame. And sewing the closed end of the hinge portion 3 to the side plate 2 through the stitch 4 can maintain the stability of the hinge portion 3, prevent it from detaching from the side plate 2, avoid affecting the deployment of the airbag during use, and improve the product qualification rate of the mesh structure.
[0042] Based on the above overall introduction, an exemplary structure of the mesh structure for an airbag frame in this embodiment is referred to Figures 1 to 4 as shown in, and Figure 1 and Figure 2 only show its overall structure. Among them, as a preferred embodiment, the structural body is formed by hot pressing a sheet of mesh. Among them, the mesh is generally formed by interweaving fibers. After being shaped by glue, it can have better strength and can then be hot pressed. In addition, the mesh includes an intermediate portion A, end portions B provided on both sides of the intermediate portion A, and a hinge portion 3 connecting the intermediate portion A and the end portions B. In addition, as Figure 3 shown in, the hinge portion 3 is generally U-shaped with one end open due to folding, and its closed end is the Figure 3 bottom end shown in the
[0043] state. Figure 3 And, as shown in
[0044] With such a design, both the middle part A and the end part B of the mesh fabric can have good structural strength. Since the hinge part 3 is composed of transverse fibers, it is conducive to folding the hinge part 3 on one side of the side plate 2. Among them, the material and structure of the mesh fabric can refer to the prior art. And generally, high-strength and high-toughness fibers such as aramid and polyester are selected as the material of the mesh fabric to ensure that it can withstand huge impact forces when the airbag deploys. These materials have good wear resistance, tear resistance and high temperature resistance, and can meet the strict requirements of automotive safety components.
[0045] To facilitate the description of this embodiment, here, an exemplary structure of the end part B and the middle part A of the mesh fabric of this embodiment is referred to Figure 4 as shown in. Specifically, as Figure 4 shown in, among which, a plurality of longitudinal fibers 5 are arranged at intervals in the transverse direction, and the transverse fibers include first fibers 6 arranged alternately in the longitudinal direction, and second fibers 7 and third fibers 8 intertwined by the longitudinal fibers 5. Since there are no longitudinal fibers 5 in the hinge part 3, the second fibers 7 and the third fibers 8 cannot be intertwined, and both extend in the transverse direction, so that it can be easily folded on one side of the side plate 2.
[0046] Here, it should be noted that the structure of the mesh fabric is not limited to Figure 4 the structure shown in, and other structures applied to the airbag frame in the prior art can be adopted. In addition, in addition to being woven into the structure shown in Figure 4 for all regions of the end part B and the middle part A, the number and arrangement of the longitudinal fibers 5 or the transverse fibers can also be adjusted accordingly according to the design requirements, and the weaving process technology is mature and will not be elaborated here.
[0047] In addition, as shown in combination with Figures 1 to 3 , as a preferred embodiment, the hinge part 3 of this embodiment is folded inside the side plate 2 to improve its overall aesthetics and use effect. In addition, as a preferred embodiment, the above-mentioned sewing thread 4 is made of cotton yarn, and its strength is relatively low, and the breaking force is generally less than 1000N, so as to prevent the sewing thread 4 from having too high strength and being difficult to break, so as to ensure the normal deployment of the airbag. In addition, as a further implementation manner, one end of the side plate 2 away from the top plate 1 has a first flanging 201 that turns outwards. The setting of the first flanging 201 can not only make it have good structural strength, but also improve the connection firmness between it and the airbag frame.
[0048] Continue to refer to Figure 2As shown in [reference figure], as a further embodiment, the edge of the first flanging 201 is provided with a second flanging 202 that is folded towards the top plate 1. In this embodiment, by providing the second flanging 202 that is folded towards the top plate 1 at the edge of the first flanging 201, the connection firmness between the mesh structure and the airbag frame can be further improved, thereby effectively preventing the mesh structure from being pulled out.
[0049] In addition, referring to Figure 1 as shown in [reference figure], the top plate 1 of this embodiment specifically includes two split parts arranged oppositely, and a connecting part provided between the two split parts. Among them, the connecting part includes a plurality of connecting pieces 101 arranged at intervals. Such a design can facilitate cutting the connecting part after the mesh structure and the airbag frame are connected together, so that the two split parts are respectively connected to the airbag door for sealing the airbag, so as to facilitate synchronous deployment with the airbag door in the later stage. Among them, as Figure 1 shown in [reference figure], as a specific embodiment, there are five connecting pieces 101 of this embodiment arranged at intervals along the length direction of the top plate 1. It can be understood that the number of connecting pieces 101 is not limited to Figure 1 as shown in [reference figure], and it can be adjusted accordingly according to design requirements.
[0050] In addition, continuing to refer to Figure 1 as shown in [reference figure], as a further embodiment, both the top plate 1 and the side plate 2 are strip-shaped, and the length of the top plate 1 is greater than that of the side plate 2, and both ends of the top plate 1 protrude outward relative to the side plate 2. Such a setting can, on the premise of ensuring the connection between the side plate 2 and the airbag frame, enable the top plate 1 to better fit the airbag door on the airbag frame, increase the connection area between the top plate 1 and the airbag door, and better prevent the airbag door from splashing. Of course, in addition to making the length of the top plate 1 greater than that of the side plate 2, it is also feasible to set their lengths to be the same.
[0051] In this embodiment, in order to improve the processing efficiency, as a further embodiment, the top plate 1 is provided with a positioning part for positioning the structural body on an external molding device. Among them, as Figure 1 shown in [reference figure], as a preferred embodiment, the positioning part of this embodiment is a positioning hole 102 provided on the top plate 1, and there are four such positioning holes 102 provided at the corners of the top plate 1.
[0052] Based on the above overall description, the mesh structure for the airbag frame of this embodiment, by adopting the above structure, compared with the prior art in which the hinge part 3 is adhesively connected, can effectively prevent the hinge part 3 from coming unstuck, ensure its connection firmness with the side plate 2, thereby preventing the hinge part 3 from detaching from the side plate 2, and further avoiding affecting the deployment of the airbag during use, and can improve the product qualification rate of the mesh structure.
[0053] In addition, this embodiment also relates to an airbag frame, and the airbag frame is provided with the above-described mesh structure for the airbag frame.
[0054] In addition, this embodiment also relates to a vehicle, and the vehicle is provided with the above-described airbag frame.
[0055] The vehicle and the airbag frame of this embodiment have all the beneficial effects of the above-described mesh structure for the airbag frame, which will not be elaborated here.
[0056] The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
