AIR BAG MODULE TO PREVENT THE DAMAGE OF A HINGE AND UNFOLD A CUSHION BY USING LOW PRESSURE DURING AUTOMOBILE COLLISION

摘要

PURPOSE: An air bag module is provided to prevent the damage of a hinge unit and open the main body of an air bag door by the low gas pressure of an inflator during automobile collision.;CONSTITUTION: An air bag module comprises an air bag housing(110), a chute(120), and an air bag door(130). The chute is coupled with the upper side of the air bag housing and the air bag door. The air bag door is linearly moved relatively to the chute for unfolding a cushion and rotated relatively to the chute for opening the front of the air bag housing in case of shock exceeding a pre-determined range. The air bag structure is simplified through removing a hinge unit due to the main body(132) of the air bag door being supported by the bending of a guide rod(134).;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2012
