Abstract:
An airbag cushion is disclosed for use in automotive protective systems. The airbag cushion includes a tube that may be restricted to prevent gas venting. A cord is coupled to the tube and to a surface of the cushion. Upon airbag deployment, the cord extends until taut or extends until the cushion encounters an obstruction. If pulled taut, the cord tightens the tube and restricts gas venting. If the cushion encounters an obstruction, the cord remains lax and the tube is able to vent gas.

Abstract:
Se describe un cojin de bolsa de aire para uso en sistemas protectores de automoviles. El cojin de bolsa de aire incluye un tubo que se puede restringir para evadir la ventilacion del gas. Se acopla una cuerda al tubo y a una superficie del cojin. Despues del despliegue de la bolsa de aire, la cuerda se extiende 'hasta que se ajusta o se extiende hasta que el cojin encuentra una obstruccion. Si se impulsa de manera tensa, la cuerda ajusta el tubo y restringe la ventilacion del gas. Si el cojin encuentra una obstruccion, la cuerda permanece laxa y el tubo es capaz de ventilar el gas.

Abstract:
A passenger airbag assembly having a first cushion and a second cushion is disclosed. An inflator mechanism that independently inflates the first cushion and the second cushion may also be added. The inflator mechanism may either be a dual stage inflator or two separate inflators. Preferably, the airbag assembly is designed such that the inflator mechanism begins the inflation of the first cushion prior to beginning the inflation of the second cushion. A housing may also be added to the airbag assembly. The housing encloses the inflator mechanism and is attached to the first cushion and the second cushion. The airbag assembly may be designed such that when the first cushion and the second cushion are inflated, the second cushion is positioned between the first cushion and the vehicle's windshield. Furthermore, the airbag assembly may also be made such that when the first cushion is inflated, the first cushion will push a vehicle occupant towards the vehicle's passenger seat.
