摘要： An airbag cushion of flexible sheet material has a vent opening therein with a vent cover of flexible sheet material stitched to an interior surface of the airbag cushion aligned with the vent opening in the airbag cushion to form a pocket. The vent cover has a vent opening therein that allows airbag inflation gas to escape from the airbag cushion via the vent opening in the airbag cushion. A vent flap of flexible sheet material is disposed at least partially within the pocket and inboard of the vent openings in the airbag cushion and vent cover. The vent flap is fixed to at least one tether that extends outboard from the vent flap through an opening in the vent cover to a tether end that is permanently attached to the airbag cushion outboard of the vent cover. A tether extends inboard from vent flap to a tether end that is fixed in a releasable manner to a tether end securing device fixed to a module housing. The tether end securing device reacts to a signal to release the end of the tether when a sensor senses a predetermined parameter during deployment of the airbag. The vent flap is pulled in an outboard direction by a tether to become interposed between the vent openings in the airbag cushion and the vent cover and prevent the escape of inflation gas through the vent openings in the airbag cushion and the vent cover.

摘要： An apparatus (10b) for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle includes an inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (14b). An inflation fluid source is actuatable to provide inflation fluid for inflating the protection device (14b). A structure (320) for supporting the protection device (14b) in the vehicle includes a vent opening (40b) for venting inflation fluid from the protection device. A vent member (300) is connectable to the structure (320) to block inflation fluid flow through the vent opening (40b). Actuatable means (120b) is actuatable to break the connection between the vent member (80b) and the structure (320) and move the vent member away from the vent opening (40b) to permit inflation fluid flow through the vent opening. A flexible elongated member (350) has a first end (352) connected to the vent member (300) and a second end (354) connected to the structure (320). The flexible elongated member (350) secures the vent member (300) to the structure (320) after the connection between the vent member and the structure is broken.
