Motor vehicle airbag details include connector flanges joining charge and outflow chambers via partition yielding axially at pre-set charge chamber pressure.

摘要

The chamber (2,6) connectors (15-17) are designed to yield axially at pre-set pressure in the charge chamber (2) so the partition (6) moves axially into the outflow chamber (7). The connectors come in flange form as a radially inwards container (1) flange (17) and a partition flange (15) which yields axially. Flange (17) is molded or impressed in the container (1) wall (4) to form an inwards yielding recess and the partition flange (15,16) is integrally molded onto the partition wall in the form of an annular strip on the outside of the partition wall to act as ideal deformation point. The outflow chamber outlet (26) is larger in section than the partition (6) hole (19) and is directed radially outwards in the container wall. Connectors (12-14) also come in flange form, the container flanges (14,17) arranged in the partition (6) side furthest from the charge chamber (2) and/or flange (13).
