US Patent:
6799777, Oct 5, 2004
Filed:
Nov 15, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/295534
Inventors:
Laura A. Hawthorn - Tipp City OH
Stephanie Dunkle - Springboro OH
Mark T. Winters - Troy OH
Shawn G. Ryan - Dayton OH
Ann L. Kneisly - Dayton OH
John P. Sparkman - Dayton OH
Patrick W. Schatz - Lebanon OH
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
B60R 2126
US Classification:
280742, 280738, 280739
Abstract:
An airbag module is provided. The module includes a housing, an inflator, an inflatable cushion, a vent aperture defined in the housing, and a gas deflecting member. The vent aperture places the interior of the housing in fluid communication with the exterior of the housing. The vent aperture is offset from exhaust ports of the inflator. The gas deflecting member is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, a first portion of the deflecting member deflects a first amount of the inflation gas to the exterior of the housing. In the second position, a second portion of the deflecting member deflects the inflation gas towards the inflatable cushion. A second amount of the inflation gas is ventable from the housing through the vent aperture when the deflecting member is in the second position.

US Patent:
6808205, Oct 26, 2004
Filed:
Jan 29, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/353661
Inventors:
Laura A. Hawthorn - Tipp City OH
Stephanie L. Dunkle - Springboro OH
Ann L. Kneisly - Dayton OH
Mark T. Winters - Vandalia OH
Ryan T. Pinsenschaum - Vandalia OH
Patrick Schatz - Lebanon OH
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
B60R 2116
US Classification:
2807432
Abstract:
A variable tether system adapted for use in an inflatable cushion of an airbag module having a first pair of tether elements each having a first end and a second end, the first ends each being secured to inner portions of the inflatable cushion and the second ends each being secured to inner portions of the inflatable cushion, the first ends each being secured to the inflatable cushion at positions remote from the second ends and the second ends being secured to the inflatable cushion at a location closer to an inflation opening of the inflatable cushion than the first ends, wherein each of the first pair of tether elements has a portion between each of the first and second ends which is not secured to the inflatable cushion; and a second pair of tether elements each having a first side and a second side, the first side of one of said second pair of tether elements being secured to a portion of one of the first pair of tether elements and the first side of the other one of the second pair of tether elements being secured to the portion of the other one of the first pair of tether elements and the second sides are configured for being releasably secured to an actuation mechanism.

System And Method For Controlling An Inflatable Cushion

US Patent:
6918611, Jul 19, 2005
Filed:
Aug 20, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/223886
Inventors:
Mark T. Winters - Troy OH, US
Laura A. Hawthorn - Tipp City OH, US
Stephanie Dunkle - Springboro OH, US
Ryan T. Pinsenschaum - Vandalia OH, US
Ann L. Kneisly - Dayton OH, US
Patrick Schatz - Lebanon OH, US
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
B62D021/32
US Classification:
280735, 280739, 2807432
Abstract:
An air bag pressure control system for use in a vehicle is provided. The system comprises a housing, an inflatable cushion, and a dual stage inflator. The inflator generates a quantity of inflation gas to deploy the inflatable cushion from the housing. A vent opening is formed in the housing to selectively direct a portion of the inflation gas towards or away from the inflatable cushion. A sensing and diagnostic module detects an activation event level. A control algorithm tailors an inflation level of the inflatable cushion during deployment according to the activation event level.

Air Bag Including Variable Tethers

US Patent:
7021657, Apr 4, 2006
Filed:
Nov 8, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/291127
Inventors:
Mark E. Kassman - Miamisburg OH, US
Mark Thomas Winters - Troy OH, US
Ann L. Kneisly - Dayton OH, US
Patrick W. Schatz - Tipp City OH, US
Ryan Todd Pinsenschaum - Vandalia OH, US
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
B60R 21/16
US Classification:
2807432
Abstract:
An air bag assembly adapted for use in opposing relation to a vehicle occupant. The assembly includes one or more tethering elements which may be selectively released from a first restrained condition to a second restrained condition in a predefined manner so as to control the inflated profile of the air bag cushion based upon vehicle and/or occupant conditions while nonetheless maintaining tension within the tethering elements in both the first and second restrained conditions.

Air Bag Tether Release Assembly

US Patent:
20020117840, Aug 29, 2002
Filed:
Feb 12, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/074421
Inventors:
Stephanie Dunkle - Springboro OH, US
Mark Winters - Troy OH, US
Laura Hawthorn - Tipp City OH, US
Ryan Pinsenschaum - Vandalia OH, US
Patrick Schatz - Lebanon OH, US
Ann Kneisly - Dayton OH, US
Shawn Ryan - Dayton OH, US
International Classification:
B60R021/16
US Classification:
280/743200, 280/728200
Abstract:
A release mechanism of efficient construction and operation is provided to hold profile restraining air bag tethers in a shortened operative condition under a first set of predetermined conditions and to extend such tethers under a second set of predetermined conditions. The extension of the restraining tethers may be carried out in conjunction with the delivery of an increased volume of inflating gas to the air bag cushion utilizing a gas emitting inflator in conjunction with a dynamic variable inflation device to effect delivery of a proper volume of inflation gas while releasing the tethers from a restrained length condition.

Ann Kneisly - Dayton OH, US
International Classification:
B60R021/16
US Classification:
280/743100
Abstract:
An air bag module for an automotive vehicle. The module includes a housing having a bottom wall and side walls extending upwardly from the bottom wall to define a depressed profile storage bin between the side walls. A gas emitting inflator is stored at a location within the housing between the side walls. An inflatable air bag cushion in fluid communication with the inflator is stored in folded relation at least partially within the housing such that a first portion of the air bag cushion is positioned at least partially across the housing between the side walls in elevated relation to the inflator and a second portion of the air bag cushion is stored in folded relation within the depressed profile storage bin in substantially side by side adjacent relation to the inflator. A method for assembly of the air bag module is also provided.
