Abstract:
A method for series production of a vehicle assembly, especially an interior assembly, including a vehicle-side support, especially a vehicle steering wheel (12), and a component to be fastened at the support, especially a horn module (14), wherein a module-side bearing unit (22) consisting of at least two bearing members (46, 50) is assigned to the component and/or a support-side bearing unit (24) consisting of at least two bearing members (26, 28) is assigned to the support, and wherein one of the bearing members (28, 50) of the respective bearing unit (22, 24) has a contact surface (34, 58) and the other one of the bearing members (26, 46) has at least one bearing surface (38, 54) includes the step of individually orientating the two bearing members (26, 28, 46, 50) of at least one bearing unit (22, 24) relative to each other as a function of the actual dimensions of the support installed and/or the component installed, fastening the two bearing members (26, 28, 46, 50) orientated relative to each other, and fastening the component to the support. The position of the support and the component relative to each other is defined by at least one bearing unit (22, 24).
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a motor vehicle steering wheel includes a gas bag (10), a gas generator (12) mounted so as to be capable of swinging, a generator carrier (16), means (18) for bracing the gas bag (10) on the generator carrier (16), and an elastically deformable, in relation to the central axis (A) of the gas bag module encircling sealing element (24). The sealing element (24) is fastened by its free edges directly or indirectly to the gas generator (12) and to the generator carrier (16), respectively. A section (26) of the sealing element (24), which is free before a filling of the gas bag (10), is deflected by the pressure occurring in the interior of the gas bag on filling of the gas bag (10), so that it comes directly or indirectly in abutment with a support surface (22; 28).
Abstract:
A Gas bag module for use in a vehicle occupant restraint device has a plastic generator support. On the generator support a printed circuit is formed by metal deposition. For activating an electrical function element, the printed circuit cooperates with a switching element that is arranged on a section of the generator support.
Abstract:
An assembly comprises a gas generator with a flange and a generator holder, on which the flange is fastened. The generator holder has a cylindrical peripheral wall, the peripheral wall at least partially surrounding the gas generator peripherally. At least one clamping extension is provided in the peripheral wall, which is formed by partial lateral deformation of the peripheral wall. The clamping extension is delimited by at least one slit in the peripheral wall. The slit runs substantially in peripheral direction and defines a side of the clamping extension, the side of the clamping extension constituting a stop for the flange.
Abstract:
A steering device (10) for a motor vehicle includes a steering wheel (12) and a gas bag (20) accommodated in the steering wheel (12). The steering wheel (12) is connected with a steering column (16) via a hub (14). The steering device (10) further includes a gas generator (22) which is able to be activated to fill the gas bag (20). The gas generator (22) is arranged on a side of the hub (14) facing away from the steering wheel (12) outside the steering column (16). The steering column (16) forms a part of a flow connection between the gas generator (22) and the gas bag (20) when the gas generator (22) is activated.
Abstract:
A gas bag module includes a gas generator (10), a gas bag (28) in flow connection with the gas generator, and a module covering. The module covering covers the gas bag and has a separate central part (18) after opening of the module covering. The gas bag module further has a holding device (12) for the central part. The holding device has guide means (14, 16, 20, 22) which on inflation of the gas bag (28) permit a displacement of the central part (18) and delimit a displacement of the central part (18).
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a housing and a gas bag (12) accommodated in the housing. The gas bag has a gas bag wall (16). The gas bag module further includes a discharge arrangement (18) having an energetic element (22) for the selective provision of a discharge opening. The energetic element (22) is able to be activated by a control unit (20). The discharge opening is provided by material conversion of the energetic element (22).
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint device includes a rigid component (10). The rigid component (10) has a discharge opening (12) formed therein through which gas can escape. A control arrangement through which gas can pass is provided at the discharge opening (12). The control arrangement is designed so that the quantity of the gas passing through depends on the speed of flow of the gas.

Abstract:
A protective device for the driver of a motor vehicle includes an airbag module (16). The airbag module (16) has an inflatable airbag (24). The airbag module (16) is arranged behind an instrument panel (12) of the vehicle. The airbag (24) in an inflated state extends in a space which is delimited substantially by a driver's door (26), an A-column (28) and a steering wheel (10) of the vehicle.
