US Classification:

29417

Abstract:

A method of manufacturing an airbag inflator assembly comprising placing a container, burst disc member, and housing for the ignitor assembly in a chamber; pressurizing the chamber to an appropriate pressure based upon a desired pressure to be contained within the container; applying force i) to urge a surface portion on one side of the burst disc member and the peripheral surface surrounding the opening in the container into forcible engagement with one another, and ii) to urge a surface portion on an opposite side of the burst disc member and an associated surface portion of the ignitor assembly housing into forcible engagement with one another; applying pulses of electrical discharge energy i) in the vicinity of the forcible engagement between the surface portion on one side of the burst disc member and the peripheral surface surrounding the opening in the container so that the surface portion on one side of the burst disc member and the peripheral surface surrounding the opening in the container are sealingly welded to one another, and 2) in the vicinity of the forcible engagement between the surface portion on the opposite side of the burst disc member and the associated surface portion of the ignitor assembly housing so that the surface portion on the opposite side of the burst disc member and the associated surface portion of the ignitor assembly housing are welded to one another.

US Classification:

280741

Abstract:

A device (20) comprising a planar metal sheet (21;21') having formed thereon at least a first set of opposing shaped slots (60a,b) such that upon forming the planar sheet as an open ended (122) generally cylindrical member or cylinder (28) first portions of the sheet, defined by the slots, extend away from the surface of the formed cylindrical member and form in conjunction with other surfaces of the sheet a plurality of first apertures (62a,b), and the extending first portions serving to define a heat sheet for shielding a portion of an air bag (100), adapted to be secured thereabout, from hot gas generated by a gas generator (50), the device including securement means, interacting with a rearward portion of the cylinderical member and adapted for urging a gas generator (50) into forward facing portions of the cylindrical member, for securing same in place.

International Classification:

B60R 2122
B60R 2128
B67D 500

US Classification:

280737

Abstract:

An airbag inflator assembly is disclosed that includes a container containing a charge of pressurized gas and having a peripheral surface surrounding an opening in the container. A burst disc member has one side capacitive discharge welded to the peripheral surface of the container to seal the opening and thus confine the pressurized gas within the container. An ignitor assembly includes an ignitor assembly housing and ignition elements constructed and arranged to generate sufficient force to break the seal formed by the burst disc member and release the pressurized gas from the container. The ignitor elements are disposed substantially within the ignitor assembly housing. The ignitor assembly housing is an integrally formed unitary construction capacitive discharge welded to a side of the burst disc member opposite to the one side. In a preferred embodiment, the welds are formed by (1) applying a force to urge i) the first side of the burst disc member into engagement with the peripheral surface of the container and ii) the peripheral surface of the ignitor assembly housing into engagement with the second side of the burst disc member. Also, pulses of electrical discharge are applied i) in a vicinity of the forceable engagement between the first side of the burst disc member and the peripheral surface of the container until welded to one another, and ii) in a vicinity of the forceable engagement between the peripheral surface of the ignitor assembly housing and the second side of the burst disc member until welded to one another.
