B60R 2122
US Classification:
2807282, 2807302
Abstract:
Apparatus ( ) for helping to protect an occupant of a vehicle ( ) that has a side structure ( ) and a roof ( ) comprises an inflatable vehicle occupant protection device ( ). The inflatable vehicle occupant protection device ( ) is inflatable away from the vehicle roof ( ) into a position between the side structure ( ) of the vehicle ( ) and a vehicle occupant. The apparatus ( ) also includes a plastic housing ( ) for storing the inflatable vehicle occupant protection device ( ) in a stored position. An inflation fluid source ( ) provides inflation fluid for inflating the inflatable vehicle occupant protection device ( ). A fill tube ( ) directs the inflation fluid into the inflatable vehicle occupant protection device ( ) to inflate the inflatable vehicle occupant protection device. The fill tube ( ) is connected to the housing ( ) by plastic connection portions ( ) of the housing that have a surface ( ) in continuous engagement with portions of an outer surface ( ) of the fill tube. The connection portions ( ) and the remaining portions of the housing ( ) are constructed of a single piece of homogeneous plastic material.

B60R 2132
US Classification:
280735, 280806
Abstract:
An apparatus ( ) for use with a removable child seat ( ) in a vehicle ( ) comprises a vehicle seat ( ) on which a removable child seat may or may not be present, and a seat belt webbing pretensioner ( ) for retracting seat belt webbing ( ) associated with the vehicle seat. A first sensor ( ) provides a first output signal in response to a vehicle collision of a magnitude above a predetermined threshold. A second sensor ( ) provides a second output signal in response to the presence of a child seat ( ) on the vehicle seat ( ). A controller ( ) receives the first and second output signals and, in response to the first output signal, actuates the seat belt webbing pretensioner ( ) when a child seat ( ) is not present on the vehicle seat ( ) and inhibits actuation of the seat belt webbing pretensioner when a child seat is present on the vehicle seat.
