Exploding Foil Initiator For Air Bag Inflator

US Patent:
56788568, Oct 21, 1997
Filed:
Jun 28, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/495853
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2126
US Classification:
280737
Abstract:
An apparatus for protecting a vehicle occupant comprises an Air bag having a stored deflated condition and an inflated condition for protecting a vehicle occupant. The apparatus also comprises an actuatable inflator (20, 320) for, when actuated, directing inflation fluid into the air bag. An energizable initiator (28, 228, 328) actuates the inflator (20, 320) upon energization. The initiator (28, 228, 328) comprises a foil, bridge section (126) and a flyer section (142). The foil bridge section (126) heats and explodes, in response to energization of the initiator (28, 228, 328), to propel the flyer section (142) to actuate the inflator (20, 320).

Side Impact Air Bag Inflator

US Patent:
55161448, May 14, 1996
Filed:
Feb 2, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/382422
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Lindsay S. Cisney - Higley AZ
Todd R. Bailey - Higley AZ
Daniel R. Hake - Scottsdale AZ
Tom Amherdt - Gilbert AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2122
B60R 2126
US Classification:
2807302
Abstract:
An air bag inflator (14) includes a pressure vessel (40), an initiator (42) and a filter (38). The pressure vessel (40) has a sealed chamber (44) containing inflation fluid under pressure, and includes a rupturable closure wall (100) which blocks the inflation fluid from exiting the chamber (44). The initiator (42) releases the inflation fluid to exit the chamber, and includes a casing (122) centered on an axis. The casing (122) contains pyrotechnic material which, when ignited, produces combustion products for rupturing the closure wall (100). The filter (38) is a sintered metal screen which filters the inflation fluid. The sintered metal screen (38) has an elongated tubular shape extending longitudinally over the casing (122) radially outward from the casing (122).

Air Bag Inflator With Pressure Sensor

US Patent:
54875595, Jan 30, 1996
Filed:
Sep 13, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/305064
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2126
US Classification:
280735
Abstract:
An air bag inflator (20) includes gas stored at or above a predetermined pressure in a chamber (24) in a container (22). An initiator (10) connected with the container (22) is exposed to the pressure of the gas stored in the chamber (24). A closure can (120) of the initiator (10) includes an electrically conductive sensor portion (140) which is spaced apart from an electrically conductive contact can (200) when the pressure in the chamber (24) is at or above the predetermined pressure. If the pressure in the chamber (24) drops below the predetermined pressure, the sensor portion (140) moves into electrical contact with the contact can (200). The engagement of the sensor portion (140) with the contact can (200) completes an electrical circuit to provide an indication of low pressure in the inflator (20).

Consumable Closure Support For Air Bag Inflator

US Patent:
56429037, Jul 1, 1997
Filed:
Sep 15, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/529271
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2126
US Classification:
280737
Abstract:
An apparatus for inflating an air bag (22) comprises a container (40) which holds an inflation fluid under pressure. The container (40) has an opening (44) through which the inflation fluid flows to inflate the air bag (22). A rupturable closure (80) is fixed to the container (40) and extends across the opening (44) to block the flow of inflation fluid through the opening when the closure is reinforced. The closure (80), when unreinforced, ruptures in response to pressure of the inflation fluid acting on the closure. A combustible member (100) is supported by the container (40) to reinforce the closure (80) and resist rupturing of the closure. The closure (80) becomes unreinforced upon a predetermined amount of combustion of the member (100). An actuatable initiator (120), upon actuation, initiates combustion of the member (100).

Side Impact Air Bag Inflator

US Patent:
55732712, Nov 12, 1996
Filed:
Nov 18, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/342367
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2128
US Classification:
280741
Abstract:
A side impact air bag inflator (14) includes an elongated tubular member (40) having an open end (52), a closed end portion (44), and a cylindrical portion (42) with a uniform inner diameter (d1) and a plurality of outlet openings (38). A rupturable closure wall (82) is fixed to the tubular member (40) at a location axially between the outlet openings (38) and the closed end portion (44). Inflation fluid is contained under pressure within the tubular member (40) between the closure wall (82) and the closed end portion (44). An initiator (100) has a cylindrical casing (106) extending coaxially within the tubular member (40) at a location axially between the closure wall (82) and the open end (52). A circular base (102) of the initiator (100) closes the open end (52).

Fill Tube For Air Bag Inflator

US Patent:
56952155, Dec 9, 1997
Filed:
Apr 24, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/637219
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
William A. Kopp - Mesa AZ
Daniel R. Hake - Scottsdale AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2126
US Classification:
280737
Abstract:
An air bag inflator (10) contains inflation fluid in a chamber (40) in a container (20). The container (20) has a fluid outlet (28) closed by a closure means (30). An assembly (50) connected with the container (20) includes a fill tube (120) for filling the container (20) with inflation fluid (42). A glass seal (140) blocks leakage of inflation fluid from the chamber (40) around the fill tube. In a preferred embodiment, the assembly (50) is an igniter assembly that includes two electrodes (100, 110). The glass seal (140) blocks fluid leakage from the chamber (40) around the electrodes (110, 110).

Container Of Vehicle Air Bag Inflator Having Fluid With Combustible Portion

US Patent:
56831072, Nov 4, 1997
Filed:
May 2, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/640539
Inventors:
Paul S. Headley - Mesa AZ
Mitchell P. Zakula - Tempe AZ
Assignee:
TRW Inc. - Lyndhurst OH
International Classification:
B60R 2128
US Classification:
280741
Abstract:
An apparatus (20) for inflating an inflatable vehicle occupant protection device (22) comprises a container (60) which defines a chamber (62) for storing gas for inflating the protection device. Fluid is in the chamber (62) and comprises a combustible fuel gas. The container (60) includes an inner housing (64) comprising an inner member (80) extending along an axis (A). The inner member (80) has a first surface portion defining the chamber (62). A second surface portion (180) of the inner member 80 defines at least a portion of the periphery of the inner member (80) extending along the axis (A). An outer housing (66) comprises an outer member (84) with a third surface portion (182) engaging and supporting the second surface portion (180) of the inner member (40) over its axial and circumferential extent. An igniter (100) ignites the fuel gas to create heat. An opening (220) in the outer housing (66) directs gas from the chamber (62) to inflate the protection device (22).
