The airbag system includes an airbag constituted by a bag formed of a first panel and a second panel stitched together, and is disposed in a car seat so as to inflate above the head of an occupant at inflation. The airbag system also includes an inflator disposed on a seat frame of the seat and supplying gas for inflating the airbag. The airbag system is stable and has a flexible layout.
1. An airbag system, comprising:
an airbag including joined base fabrics and disposed in a vehicle seat so as to deploy above an occupant's head at inflation;
an inflator disposed on a frame of the seat and supplying pressure fluid for inflating the airbag; and
a retainer to hold the airbag, the retainer being disposed on the frame of the seat,
wherein the retainer for the airbag is mounted to a cross member bridging two side plates in the vehicle seat and the inflator is mounted to only one side plate below the retainer.
2. An airbag system comprising:
an airbag including joined base fabrics and disposed in a vehicle seat so as to deploy above an occupant's head at inflation;
an inflator disposed on a frame of the seat and supplying pressure fluid for inflating the airbag; and
a retainer to hold the airbag, the retainer being disposed on the frame of the seat,
wherein the airbag and the inflator are joined together with a pipe; and
wherein the pipe includes at least one bent portion.
3. An airbag system, comprising:
an airbag configured to deploy above an occupant's head while sitting in a vehicle seat; and
an inflator for supplying inflation fluid to the airbag,
wherein the inflator is connected to a frame portion of the vehicle seat below and separate from the airbag thereby lowering the center of gravity for the airbag system and reducing the thickness of an upper portion of the vehicle seat,
wherein a retainer for the airbag is mounted to a cross member bridging two side plates in the vehicle seat and the inflator is mounted to only one side plate below the retainer.
4. An occupant restraint device comprising:
an airbag disposed in a vehicle seat and configured to inflate above an occupant's head; and
an inflator to inflate the airbag and disposed in the vehicle seat below the airbag,
wherein the inflator is mounted to a frame of the vehicle seat; and wherein the inflator is mounted to one side plate by an inflator mounting member, the mounting member clamps the inflator from both sides in the front to back direction with two mounting plates.
5. An occupant restraint device comprising:
an airbag disposed in a vehicle seat and configured to inflate above an occupant's head; and
an inflator to inflate the airbag and disposed in the vehicle seat below the airbag,
wherein the inflator is mounted to a frame of the vehicle seat, and
wherein the inflator is mounted to one side plate by a mounting member, the mounting member clamps the inflator from both sides in a vehicle width direction.
6. An occupant restraint device, comprising:
an airbag disposed in a vehicle seat and configured to inflate above an occupant's head;
an inflator to inflate the airbag and disposed in the vehicle seat below the airbag; and
a retainer for holding the airbag, the retainer being disposed on a frame,
wherein the inflator is mounted to the frame of the vehicle seat, wherein the inflator is disposed on the frame of the seat below the airbag, and
wherein the retainer for the airbag is mounted to a cross member bridging two side plates in the vehicle seat and the inflator is mounted to only one side plate below the retainer.
