摘要： An air bag module is provided for inflating an air bag cushion at variable rates in response to rapid deceleration of a motor vehicle. The air bag module includes an inflator for generating inflator gas to inflate an air bag cushion upon the sensing rapid deceleration of a vehicle. An annular cushion retainer is disposed about the inflator for directing gases from the inflator to the air bag cushion. The cushion retainer includes an annular cavity in fluid communication with the air bag cushion by a vent opening to selectively direct gas away from the air bag cushion during a reduced level of deployment. A controller generates an ignition signal to the inflator in response to velocity responsive sensors. In response to the ignition signals, the inflator releases an appropriate predetermined volume of gas into the air bag cushion. The level of deployment or inflation of the air bag cushion is dependent on the actuation of a slide actuator assembly arranged to selectively block the vent opening of the cushion retainer to restrict or block gas flow directed away from the air bag cushion to the exterior of the air bag module.

摘要： Variable deployment performance by controlling the quantity and fluid flow path of the inflator gas into or out of an air bag module according to the present invention. The air bag module includes a vent opening and a cushion retainer diffuser including a plurality of diffuser openings which permits fluid communication between an annular cavity and an air bag cushion. The vent opening provides a fluid path for the inflator gas to flow from the annular cavity to outside of the air bag module. For full level deployment, the vent opening is closed and therefore the inflator gas is not permitted to flow away from the air bag module but instead flows into the air bag cushion. For low level deployment, the volume of inflator gas which flows into the air bag cushion is controlled by selecting the ratio between the cross-sectional area of the diffuser openings and the cross-sectional area of the vent opening. For example, for reduced low level deployment, the cross-sectional area of the vent opening is increased in relation to the cross-sectional area of the diffuser openings. Conversely, for increased low level deployment, the cross-sectional area of the vent opening is decreased in relation to the cross-sectional area of the diffuser openings. Accordingly, the selective control of the ratio acts as a tuning mechanism by which different low level inflator outputs can be achieved. Deployment module levels between low level and high level can be achieved by controlling the timing of when the vent opening is closed.
摘要翻译：根据本发明，通过控制充气机气体进出气囊模块的量和流体流动路径可变部署性能。气囊模块包括通气口和缓冲保持器扩散器，其包括允许环形腔和气囊垫之间的流体连通的多个扩散器开口。排气口提供用于充气机气体从环形空腔流到气囊模块外部的流体路径。为了全面部署，通风口关闭，因此充气机气体不允许从气囊模块流出，而是流入气囊垫。对于低水平部署，通过选择扩散器开口的横截面积和通气口的横截面积之间的比例来控制流入气囊衬垫的充气机气体的体积。例如，为了减少低水平部署，通气孔的横截面积相对于扩散器开口的横截面面积增加。相反，为了增加低水平部署，通气孔的横截面积相对于扩散器开口的横截面面积减小。因此，该比例的选择性控制用作可以实现不同的低水平充气机输出的调谐机构。通过控制通气口关闭的时间可以实现低电平和高电平之间的部署模块电平。

摘要： The present invention provides variable deployment performance by controlling the heat content of the inflator gas which exits an air bag sub-module, disposed in a module, into an air bag cushion. The air bag sub-module includes a sub-module housing which receives an inflator in a central cavity formed therein. The module housing includes low output module ports formed in the module housing and high output module ports. Heat sinking material is disposed within the sub-module housing between an outer wall of the sub-module housing and the inflator such that the heat sinking material surrounds the low output module ports. The air bag sub-module provides a first fluid flow path for the heated inflator gas to flow under high level deployment conditions and a second fluid flow path for the inflator gas to flow under reduced level deployment conditions. The first fluid flow path comprises a low resistance fluid flow path in which the heated inflator gas exits the inflator through the high output module ports. Little or no heated inflator gas will flow through the second fluid flow path, which comprises a high resistance fluid flow path, because in order for the inflator gas to flow according to the second fluid flow path, the inflator gas must pass through the high resistance heat sink material and the low output module ports. The heat content of the inflator gas is reduced by forcing the inflator gas to flow according to the second fluid flow path.

摘要： A variable output air bag inflator is presented wherein in one embodiment the inflator offers variable output and may be implemented with either pyrotechnic or hybrid inflators. The inflator offers full level deployment at a first end of the inflator unit and reduced level deployment at a second end. This is accomplished by providing two discrete paths for the inflator gas to flow during deployment of the air bag cushion. One path communicates with a first filter material or permits the hot inflation gas to directly exit the inflator without passing through a filter material. The other path communicates with a second filter material which absorbs heat from the inflator gas as it passes through the second filter material before exiting the inflator, wherein the second filter material has a heat sink capacity greater than the first filter material. The energy content and pressure of the inflator gas is therefore regulated by directing the inflator gas through the second filter material.
