摘要:
An inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (14) for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle (12) includes strands of material woven together to form both (a) overlying woven panels (40 and 42) and (b) single layer first and second woven seams (120 and 150) that include strands of material from each of the overlying panels. The first and second seams (120 and 150) help define an inflatable volume (60) of the inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (14) between the overlying panels (40 and 42). The first seam (120) has a weave pattern different than the weave pattern of the second seam (150).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a polyamide fiber for uncoated airbags, the fineness and stress-strain curve of the monofilaments of which were controlled such that the polyamide fiber can absorb impact energy which occurs instantaneously when the airbags operate. More particularly, the present invention relates to a high strength polyamide fiber consisting of polyamide monofilaments each having a fineness of less than 4 denier and a stress-strain curve where (a) the monofilament elongates less than 5% when subjected to an initial stress of 1.0 g/d, (b) it elongates less than 12% when subjected to a middle stress of 4.5 g/d, and (c) it elongates more than 3% over a tensile strength range from a tensile strength of at least 9.0 d/g to the tensile strength at break of the monofilament, the elongation values being measured at ambient temperature. A fabric produced using the inventive polyamide fiber has high tensile strength and high tear strength, so that it will be useful as an uncoated fabric for airbags.

A hollow-weave airbag is constituted of a bag portion (11) with a 1/1 bag structure, and a closed portion (12) that has two or more weave structures and adjoins the bag portion 11. In addition, the closed portion (12) is constituted of, in sequence from the bag portion side, a first weave structure 12A with a 2/2 structure, a second weave structure 12B with a 1/1 structure, and a third weave structure with a 3/3 structure. Furthermore, the 2/2 structure is constituted of 3 to 5 weft yarns, and the 1/1 structure is constituted of 2 to 5 weft yarns.

The present invention relates to a low shrinkage polyamide fiber suitable for use as a yarn of a fabric for airbags, and an uncoated fabric for airbags produced using the same. The uncoated fabric for airbags is produced by a method comprising the steps of: (A) weaving a low shrinkage polyamide fiber having a dry heat shrinkage of 3-6% (190° C. for 15 minutes) into a grey fabric for airbags; (B) heat-shrinking the grey fabric by successively passing it through 3-10 aqueous baths, the temperature of each of which is 5-20° C. higher than that of the preceding aqueous bath; (C) additionally heat-shrinking the fabric from the aqueous baths by passing it through a steam heater; and (D) drying the fabric from the steam heater by passing it through a hot air drier. The fabric produced using the low shrinkage polyamide fiber of the present invention has high tensile strength and tear strength, and excellent quality, and thus, is useful as a fabric for airbags.

An inflatable airbag cushion (10, 110, 210, 310, 410, 510) is provided. The bag includes a face portion and a rear portion formed from first and second fabric layers (30, 32). The bag further includes a number of straight line woven in joints (16) defining flow barrier elements (14). The flow barrier elements (14) serve to contain the inflation gases and to restrict inflation of the cushion.
摘要:
A method of fabricating an inflatable seat webbing, more particularly for a seat belt, comprising the steps of weaving a two-ply fabric having an upper ply and a lower ply, folding and placing outermost outer parts on adjoining parts so that all parts are located in sequence above or below a middle part to result in, as viewed in a warp direction, the configuration of a collapsed concertina, and tucking the middle part to the left as viewed from a predetermined direction in relation to fabric threads so that the upper ply and the lower ply of the middle part formerly facing each other now face outwards and sandwiching the folded outer parts and the middle part in between.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an unbalanced twill weave fabric having fill yarns at least about three times larger than the warp yarns. Such a fabric thus has increased strength provided by the fill direction. The present invention further relates to an airbag restraint device for vehicles, where the airbag is constructed of the unbalanced twill weave fabric and has the fill yarns oriented substantially parallel to the longest direction of the airbag.

The invention relates to a textile construction for using in passenger restraint systems. Said textile construction is characterised in that it contains plastically deformable filaments which enable the surface of the textile construction to increase when pressure is applied in at least one surface direction. The inventive textile construction is also provided with an especially elastic coating.
摘要:
A textile air bag material for a protective cushion in an pant restraint system is disclosed. The textile air bag material is composed of a fabric layer having two superimposed wall portions interwoven with each other at their peripheries. The wall portions have a first side with a surface area. On this side a continuous foil of an air-tight material is applied over the entire surface area. Further, a protective cushion made of the textile material and a method for producing the textile material are disclosed.
摘要:
Apparatus (10) for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle (12) includes an inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (14) that is inflatable into a position between a part of the vehicle and a vehicle occupant. The inflatable device (14) includes overlying panels (40 and 42) that are secured together. An inflation fluid source (24) provides inflation fluid for inflating the inflatable device. The panels (40 and 42) include first overlying portions (100) subject to relatively low stress that extend across the inflatable device (14) when inflated. The panels (40 and 42) further include second overlying portions (102) subject to relatively high stress that extend across the inflatable device (14) when inflated. The first portions (100) have a woven construction of a first weave density. The second portions (102) have a woven construction of a second weave density, greater than the first weave density.
