Hollow-weave airbag
View Patent ↗A hollow-weave airbag is constituted of a bag portion ( 11 ) with a 1/1 bag structure, and a closed portion ( 12 ) that has two or more weave structures and adjoins the bag portion 11 . In addition, the closed portion ( 12 ) is constituted of, in sequence from the bag portion side, a first weave structure 12 A with a 2/2 structure, a second weave structure 12 B with a 1/1 structure, and a third weave structure with a 3/3 structure. Furthermore, the 2/2 structure is constituted of 3 to 5 weft yarns, and the 1/1 structure is constituted of 2 to 5 weft yarns.
1. A hollow-weave airbag comprising:
a bag portion; and
a closed portion that has two or more weave structures and adjoins the bag portion; and
wherein the closed portion includes, in sequence from a bag portion side, a first weave structure and a second weave structure, which adjoins a side of the first weave structure opposite the bag portion side, and the first weave structure includes one or more portions with a looser weave structure than the second weave structure;
wherein the closed portion is formed of a single layered weave;
wherein an interface density of the second weave structure is 4/3 or more; and
wherein at least one portion of an outer surface of the bag portion and the closed portion, which includes at least a boundary of the bag portion and of the closed portion, is coated.
2. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein the first weave structure adjoins the bag portion.
3. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein the first weave structure is a 2/2 structure.
4. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 3 , wherein the 2/2 structure is constituted of 3 to 5 warp yarns and 3 to 5 weft yams.
5. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein the second weave structure has a 1/1 structure.
6. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 5 , wherein the 1/1 structure is constituted of 2 to 5 warp yarns and 2 to 5 weft yams.
7. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein an interlace density of the bag portion, the first weave structure and the second weave structure satisfies at least one of the conditions shown in (1) to (3) below, excluding, however, a case where the interlace density of the first weave structure and the interlace density of the second weave structure are both 4/3,
(1) the interlace density of the bag portion is 1/2 or less,
(2) the interlace density of the first weave structure is from 2/3 or more to 4/3 or less, and
(3) the interlace density of the second weave structure is 4/3 or more.
8. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein a third weave structure adjoins a side of the second weave structure opposite the bag portion side.
9. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 8 , wherein the third weave structure has a looser weave structure than the second weave structure.
10. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 8 , wherein the value of the interlace density of the first weave structure is a value between the value for the interlace density of the second weave structure and the value for an interlace density of the third weave structure.
11. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 8 , wherein the third weave structure has an n/m structure (where n and m are both integers of 1 or more, excluding, however, a 1/1 structure).
12. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 8 , wherein the interlace density of the third weave structure is 1 or less.
13. A hollow-weave airbag that includes a bag portion and a closed portion that has 2 or more weave structures and adjoins the bag portion, wherein:
at least one of the weave structures that constitute the closed portion, and that adjoins the bag portion, has a reversed bag structure; the reversed bag structure having a lower cloth and an upper cloth, where the lower cloth of the reversed bag structure is formed of warp yarns and weft yarns that constitute an upper cloth of the bag portion, and the upper cloth of the reversed bag structure is formed of warp yarns and weft yarns that constitutes a lower cloth of the bag portion.
14. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 13 , wherein the reversed bag structure is formed of warp yarns and 3 to 7 and weft yarns that constitute the weave structure of the bag portion.
15. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein at least one portion of an outer surface of the bag portion and/or the closed portion is coated.
16. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 1 , wherein the weave structure that constitutes the boundary of the bag portion and the closed portion has a curved line structure.
17. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 13 , wherein at least one portion of an outer surface of the bag portion and/or the closed portion is coated.
18. The hollow-weave airbag according to claim 13 , wherein the weave structure that constitutes the boundary of the bag portion and the closed portion has a curved line structure.
