Abstract:
An assembly comprises a steering wheel and a gas bag module held in a hub region of the steering wheel, the gas bag module being movable in an axial direction of the steering wheel for actuating a horn. The assembly further comprises at least one restoring element having at least one elastic section. The elastic section exerts onto the gas bag module a restoring force acting against an actuating force for the horn. The elastic section extends between a module housing and a fastening for the restoring element provided in the hub region of the steering wheel. The elastic section is securely and non-displaceably connected at one end with the module housing and at another end with the fastening in the hub region. The elastic section has between the ends a contact section which forms an electric horn contact.
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. The discharge opening (12) is covered by a flat covering part (14). The flat covering part (14) includes an extensible material and has at least one hole (16).
Abstract:
An airbag module comprising a gas generator support is distinguished in that arranged on the gas generator support (26) is a plate spring (10) which comprises a continuous ring-shaped inner section (12) and several arms (14). The arms each have a first end (14a) formed on the inner section (12) and a second, free end (14b) which is bent away axially with respect to a central axis (16) of the plate spring (10). The arms (14) are elastically deformable under axial pressure. There is further proposed an assembly comprised of a steering wheel and such airbag module.
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:
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 gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint device includes a rigid component (16). The rigid component (16) has a discharge opening (14) formed therein through which gas can escape. A control element (10) is arranged at the discharge opening (14). The control element (10) assumes a rolled-up state in the case of low pressure action and assumes an unrolled state in the case of greater pressure action.
Abstract:
A vehicle interior decor element, in particular an air bag cover, comprising a front side (36) facing the vehicle interior and an opposite rear side (34), a cover (18) and a decorative element (20) which is provided at the cover (18), is visible from the front and is at least partly translucent. The decorative element (20) includes sections (24) between which the decorative element (20) has a gap (26) through which the cover (18) is accessible from the front side (36). The decorative element (20) extends with at least one portion (44) thereof towards the rear side (34) towards or into a cavity (42) which is formed in the cover (18) and in which an illuminant (50) for illuminating the decorative element (20) is accommodated.
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a gas bag (12) and a discharge arrangement (18). The discharge arrangement (18) has a unit able to be activated (26) by a control arrangement (19) for selectively providing a discharge opening. The unit able to be activated (26) is arranged on a mounting (24) which performs a hinge function upon activation of the unit (26).
Abstract:
A gas bag module has a housing, which comprises a cover part, at least one side wall that is joined to the cover part, and a base section that is joined to the side wall. The housing opens along a plurality of predetermined separation lines when the gas bag module is activated, to allow the emergence of a gas bag. The separation lines run across the cover part, the side wall and/or and the base section such that, after activation of the gas bag module, the housing becomes separated into parts along the separation lines into a plurality of segments that are not directly connected to each other. Each segment includes a section of the cover part, the side wall and the base section.
