Enhanced airbag modules and associated methods are provided. An airbag module according to the invention may have a cushion with a venting portion. During normal vehicle operation, the venting portion may be closed so that inflation gas is not permitted to flow through the venting portion. A pyrotechnic may be ignited to open the venting portion when venting is desired. The pyrotechnic may be directly attached to the venting portion to burn through or mechanically rupture the venting portion, thereby forming an exit port. Alternatively, the venting portion may have a flap that can be detached from the housing by ignition of a pyrotechnic to permit venting through an exit port of the housing. The pyrotechnic may then be disposed within a fastener designed to fracture upon ignition of the pyrotechnic to release the flap from attachment to the housing. The pyrotechnic may, for example, be an initiator or rapid deflagration cord (RDC). The cushion may thus be more stiffly inflated for a high velocity collision, or less stiffly inflated in the case of a lower impact velocity or an out-of-position occupant.

A water-resistant cartridge includes a pyrotechnic that when ignited launches water from a disrupter cannon to disable and / or destroy an explosive device. The cartridge includes a seal that seals between an outer surface of the cartridge and an inner surface of the barrel to limit water that escapes from the barrel rearward of the seal and cartridge.

Thermal batteries using molten nitrate electrolytes offer significantly higher cell voltages and marked improvements in energy and power densities over present thermal batteries. However, a major problem is gas-evolution reactions involving the molten nitrate electrolytes. This gassing problem has blocked the advantages offered by thermal batteries using molten nitrates. The solution to this problem is the use of chloride-free molten nitrate electrolytes. Most important is the avoidance of potassium perchlorate (KClO4) or any other chlorine-containing substances that can decompose to produce chloride ions in any thermal battery component. The Fe+KClO4 pyrotechnic used to activate thermal batteries is a key example. The decomposition of such substances into chloride ions (Cl−) results in passivating-film breakdown and gas-producing reactions with the molten nitrate electrolyte. These reactions largely involve the lithium-component of the anode used in thermal batteries such as Li—Fe (LAN), Li—Si, and Li—Al. The introduction of chloride ions into the nitrate melt via the pyrotechnic materials produces a rapid breakdown of the protective oxide film on lithium-based anodes and leads to gas-producing reactions.

Enhanced airbag modules and associated methods are provided. An airbag module according to the invention may have a cushion with an inflatable protection zone and a flexible venting tube coupled to the inflatable protection zone.

The bolt may, for example, have a bore with a pyrotechnic initiator molded-in-place within the bore. The bolt may fracture to open the closure mechanism, thereby permitting inflation gas to flow out of the inflatable protection zone via the flexible venting tube.
