Title:
AIR BELT AND AIR BELT DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/091486
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A predetermined tension is produced in an air belt even if a narrow inflatable
section of the air belt is inflated in a tight space. The air belt (30) has a first
normal belt (31), a second normal belt (32), and the inflatable section (33) between
the first and second normal belts. Opposite portions of the inflatable section
(33) are connected to each other by a connection section (34) formed of a sewing
thread. The inflatable section (33) has a bag-like belt (33a) and a knit cover
(33b) not extending in the longitudinal direction of the air belt (30). When an
inflator is activated, the inflatable section (33) inflates to fit the air belt
(30) to the occupant. When this occurs, since the knit cover of the inflatable
section (33) does not extend in the longitudinal direction of the air belt (30),
the length of the inflatable section (33) is reduced with the inflation of the
inflatable section (33), producing tension in the air belt (30).
