US Patent:

61262145, Oct 3, 2000

Filed:

Jul 26, 1999

Appl. No.:

9/360280

Inventors:

Sun Young Kim - Garland TX

International Classification:

B60R 1920

US Classification:

293107

Abstract:

A bumper has a bumper frame and an inflatable bladder, which is mounted to the bumper frame to extend exteriorly of the bumper frame. Fluid flow ports extend from the inflatable bladder, in fluid communication with the interior of the inflatable bladder. Inlet valves and pressure relief valves are mounted in the flow ports for sealing air within the inflatable bladder. Two impact members are mounted to the bumper frame, extending outwardly from the bumper frame and interiorly within the inflatable bladder. The impact members are connected to respective ones of the pressure relief valves, such that inward movement of the impact members will open the pressure relief valves to allow fluid flow from within the inflatable bladder. Latch members are located adjacent to the pressure relief valves for securing the valves in open positions after impact. An activator stem is secured adjacent to an inward end of a stem of one of the pressure relief valves, and is moved inward of the bumper frame by contact with the stem of the pressure relief valve during an impact.
