Hybrid gas generator for inflating airbag of motor vehicle during collision, has reservoirs arranged in side by side manner transversely to longitudinal direction such that seals are turned in direction facing electropyrotechnic initiator

摘要

The generator (1) has membrane seals (25, 35) arranged in a same plane in a side by side manner transversely to a longitudinal direction (L). Gas reservoirs (2, 3) e.g. longitudinal tubes, containing reactive and inert gases, are arranged in a side by side manner transversely to the longitudinal direction such that the seals are turned in a direction (S) similar to the longitudinal direction facing an initiation device i.e. electropyrotechnic initiator (7). The initiator is arranged in a combustion chamber (6) located in a longitudinal extension of the reservoirs along the direction (S).
