Abstract
A retention device for an airbag arrangement can include a first retaining element, which can be connected via a first end section to an airbag flap and via a second end section to a firing channel or via a first end section to at least one airbag flap and via a second end section to a carrier which encloses the airbag flap and has at least one section disposed between the first and the second end sections. The first end section and/or the second end section have at least two overlapping end subsections, which are connected to one another and which are connected opposite to one another and spaced apart from one another to the first plate and second plate, respectively.
Claims18
An apparatus comprising:
- a retaining device means for an airbag arrangement, the retaining device comprising:
- a first retaining element configured to be connected via a first end portion to at least one airbag flap and, via a second end portion, to a firing channel or, via the first end portion, to at least one airbag flap and, via the second end portion, to a support surrounding the airbag flap;
- and
- wherein the first retaining element has at least one portion disposed between the first and the second end portion, and, on the first end portion, a first plate, which is configured to be connected to an airbag flap and/or on the second end portion, a second plate, which is configured to be connected to a support or a firing channel is mounted and
- wherein the first end portion has at least two overlapping end partial portions which are connected to each other and are connected to the first plate, situated opposite each other and at a spacing from each other, and/or the second end portion has at least two overlapping end partial portions which are connected to each other and are connected to the second plate, situated opposite each other and at a spacing from each other.
An apparatus comprising:
- a retaining device for an airbag arrangement, the retaining device comprising:
- a first retaining element configured to be connected via a first end portion to at least one airbag flap and, via a second end portion, to a firing channel or, via the first end portion, to at least one airbag flap and, via the second end portion, to a support surrounding the airbag flap;
- and
- wherein the first retaining element includes a woven material and has at least one portion disposed between the first and the second end portion, and, on the first end portion, a first plate, which is configured to be connected to an airbag flap and/or on the second end portion, a second plate, which is configured to be connected to a support or a firing channel is mounted;
- and
- wherein the first end portion has at least two overlapping end partial portions which are connected to each other and are connected to the first plate, situated opposite each other and at a spacing from each other, and/or the second end portion has at least two overlapping end partial portions which are connected to each other and are connected to the second plate, situated opposite each other and at a spacing from each other;
- wherein the end partial portions of the first end portion are at least partially integrally connected and at least partially recessed into to the first plate and/or the end partial portions of the second end portion are at least partially integrally connected and at least partially recessed into to the second plate;
- wherein the end partial portions of the first and/or of the second end portion respectively have a length between 0.5 cm to 15 cm;
- and
- a second retaining element, which produces at least one of a glued, welded, or sewn connection between the at least two partial portions, wherein the second retaining element has a lower tensile strength than the first retaining element.
