Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance stability of a knee bag cushion and its supporter panel by setting a knee supporter to be fixed to the knee bag cushion when a holding rod slips in a groove. SOLUTION: A pair of tube-like grooves 32 are attached to one side of a cushion 30 by means of, for instance, darning 34 on the opposite side to the cushion 30. Each groove 32 receives a rod 36. The rod 36 and the tube-like groove 32 serve as an anchor (hooking/fixing tool) and stabilize a supporter panel 40. The supporter panel 40 acting as a knee bag cover is arranged near an instrument panel. The surface opposite to the support panel 40, namely the inside surface 44 is provided with a pair of grooves 46 whose configurations are formed in such shapes as receiving holding rods 36 and tube-like grooves 32. The tube-like grooves 32 and the holding rods 36 can slip in the grooves 46 or those can be dropped and fitted in the grooves 46 by inserting those components in the openings 48 of the C-letter shape grooves 46.

Abstract: A load distribution panel retention apparatus which effectively secures a knee bolster airbag to a load distribution panel. The apparatus includes a flat, rectangular piece of textile material attached to a knee bolster airbag to form a panel retainer which is open on both ends. A load distribution panel, also called a knee bolster panel, is secured to the airbag by positioning the load distribution panel between the panel retainer and the airbag. The apparatus includes a housing secured to the instrument panel or to a firewall of a vehicle. The conventional inflatable knee airbag is stored within the housing and in communication with an inflator. The inflator is stored within the housing and inflates the knee airbag in an accident situation. A trim cover panel is attached to the load distribution panel to provide a decorative covering of the airbag module.

Abstract: Enhanced airbag modules and associated methods are provided. An airbag module according to the invention may have a cushion with a venting portion. During normal vehicle operation, the venting portion may be closed so that inflation gas is not permitted to flow through the venting portion. A pyrotechnic may be ignited to open the venting portion when venting is desired. The pyrotechnic may be directly attached to the venting portion to burn through or mechanically rupture the venting portion, thereby forming an exit port. Alternatively, the venting portion may have a flap that can be detached from the housing by ignition of a pyrotechnic to permit venting through an exit port of the housing. The pyrotechnic may then be disposed within a fastener designed to fracture upon ignition of the pyrotechnic to release the flap from attachment to the housing. The pyrotechnic may, for example, be an initiator or rapid deflagration cord (RDC). The cushion may thus be more stiffly inflated for a high velocity collision, or less stiffly inflated in the case of a lower impact velocity or an out-of-position occupant.

Abstract: An overhead airbag system is disclosed for use in protecting a vehicle occupant during a collision. The overhead airbag system is configured to be mounted in the roof of a vehicle and subsequently, to deploy from the roof into a space between the vehicle occupant and an interior surface or structure of the vehicle. The overhead airbag system includes an external tether to guide the airbag during deployment. The external tether stabilizes the airbag, reducing danger to a vehicle occupant posed by rotation or skew of the airbag cushion.
