Airbag and airbag device
View Patent ↗In one form, an airbag is provided with a first bag as a bag formed by joining base fabrics which includes a gas inlet for supplying pressure fluid fed from an inflator inward and a discharge passage for discharging the pressure fluid supplied inward to an outside, a second bag as a bag formed by joining base fabrics which includes an intake passage for introducing the pressure fluid discharged from the discharge passage of the first bag inward, and a passage joint member for joining the discharge passage of the first bag and the intake passage of the second bag while maintaining each cross section shape of the passages.
1. An airbag comprising
a first bag formed as a bag by joining first base fabrics, which includes a supply passage for supplying a pressure fluid fed from an inflator inward, and a discharge passage for discharging the pressure fluid supplied inward to an outside; and
a second bag formed as a bag by joining second base fabrics, which includes an intake passage for introducing the pressure fluid discharged from the discharge passage of the first bag inward, wherein the discharge passage of the first bag and the intake passage of the second bag are joined while maintaining each cross section shape of the discharge passage and the intake passage,
wherein the passage joint member includes a hollow communication pipe inserted into the discharge passage and the intake passage, and an outer tightening member for tightening the discharge passage and the intake passage from an outer circumference to be secured to the hollow communication pipe, and the discharge passage is joined at a position to be inserted between an outer circumference of the hollow communication pipe and an inner circumference of the intake passage.
2. An airbag device comprising:
the airbag according to claim 1 ; and
an inflator for supplying a pressure fluid for inflating and deploying the airbag.
3. The airbag according to claim 1 , wherein:
the first bag includes a pressure deployment portion which inflates and deploys by the pressure fluid fed from the inflator, and the pressure deployment portion includes a deployment discharge portion for discharging the second bag upward; and
the second bag includes an upper deployment portion which is inflated and deployed by the pressure fluid fed from the inflator.
4. The airbag according to claim 3 , wherein the discharge passage of the first bag is positioned apart from a line extending in an inflow direction of the pressure fluid from the supply passage.
5. The airbag according to claim 3 , wherein:
the second bag includes a lower deployment portion which is positioned to inflate and deploy so as to be overlapped with the pressure deployment portion.
6. The airbag according to claim 5 , wherein a sewn joint portion formed in the pressure deployment portion and a sewn joint portion formed in the lower deployment portion are formed not to be aligned with each other.
