Abstract

The gas-generator with radial discharge ports inflates a cushion protecting car passengers. The inner edge of the cushion immediately adjacent to the generator has a thickened bead portion, while a holding ring round the generator at the ports is fixed to the generator bracket and secures the cushion, and also deflects the outflowing gas. At its inner end, the ring is bent back onto the top of the bracket, completely covering the cushion bead. A portion of the ring above this slopes outwards, forming a deflecting ramp for the outflowing gas. ADVANTAGE - Allows use of cushion with thick bead.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Gasgenerator mit radialen Ab­ strömöffnungen für aufblasbare, dem Schutz der Insassen von Kraftwagen dienende Gaskissen, die in ihrem dem Gasgenerator direkt benachbarten inneren Randbereich in eine wulstartige Verdickung auslaufen, mit einem den Gasgenerator im Bereich der Abströmöffnungen umgebenden, an einem Generatorträger zu befe­ stigenden Haltering für das Gaskissen, wobei der Haltering so ausgebildet ist, daß er eine Ablenkfunktion für das ausströ­ mende Gas ausübt.The invention relates to a gas generator with radial Ab inflatable openings for inflatable, protecting the occupants of Automotive gas cushions in their the gas generator directly adjacent inner edge area in a bead-like Leak with a gas generator in the area of the Outflow openings surrounding, on a generator support rising retaining ring for the gas cushion, the retaining ring so is designed to discharge a deflecting function gas.

Ein derartiger Gasgenerator ist bereits der DE 36 04 843 A1 als bekannt zu entnehmen. Dieser bekannte Generator weist den Nachteil auf, daß besonders die Oberseite des innersten Gas­ kissenbereiches stärker als erwünscht von ausströmenden heißen Gasen beaufschlagt werden kann.Such a gas generator is already known from DE 36 04 843 A1 known to take. This known generator has the Disadvantage on that especially the top of the innermost gas pillow area stronger than desired from escaping hot Gases can be applied.

Eine ähnliche Anordnung ist auch der DE 39 00 931 A1 als be­ kannt zu entnehmen. Dort ist zwischen Haltering und Gasaus­ trittsöffnungen des Generators nur ein relativ schmaler Spalt vorgesehen, so daß ein gewisser Schutz für den inneren Randbe­ reich des Gaskissens gegeben ist. Für ein Gaskissen, dessen innerer Randbereich von einem relativ dicken Wulst gebildet wird, ist diese Anordnung aber kaum brauchbar.A similar arrangement is also DE 39 00 931 A1 known to take. There is between the retaining ring and Gasaus outlet openings of the generator only a relatively narrow gap provided so that some protection for the inner randbe gas cushion is given. For a gas pillow whose inner edge area formed by a relatively thick bead this arrangement is hardly usable.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ohne baulichen Mehraufwand hier Abhilfe zu schaffen. The present invention is therefore based on the object To remedy this without additional construction work.  

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen Gasgenerator er­ findungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Haltering an seinem in­ neren Endbereich bis auf die Oberseite des Generatorträgers zurückgebogen ist und so eine völlige Abdeckung für die wulstartige Verdickung des Gaskissens bildet, und daß ein dar­ über liegender Bereich des Halteringes schräg nach außen ver­ läuft und eine Ablenkschräge für das ausströmende Gas bildet.This task is done with a generic gas generator solved according to the invention in that the retaining ring on its in end area up to the top of the generator carrier is bent back and so a complete cover for the bead-like thickening of the gas cushion forms, and that a Ver over the area of the retaining ring diagonally outwards runs and forms a deflection slope for the escaping gas.

Der Gegenstand der Erfindung soll im folgenden anhand eines in der Zeichnung, die einen Vertikalschnitt durch einen äußeren Teilbereich eines Gasgenerators zeigt, dargestellten Ausfüh­ rungsbeispiels näher erläutert werden.The subject matter of the invention is to be described in the following with the of the drawing, which is a vertical section through an outer Part of a gas generator shows, shown embodiment tion example are explained in more detail.

Ein rotationssymmetrischer Gasgenerator 1 mit radialen Ab­ strömöffnungen 2 ist über eine nur angedeutete Verschraubung 3 an einem Generatorträger 4 befestigt. Zum Halten eines Gaskis­ sens 5 dient ein Haltering 6.A rotationally symmetrical gas generator 1 with radial flow openings 2 is fastened to a generator support 4 via a screw connection 3, which is only indicated. A holding ring 6 is used to hold a gas sensor 5 .

An seinem inneren Endbereich 7 ist der Haltering 6 bis auf die Oberseite des Generatorträgers 4 zurückgebogen und bildet so eine völlige Abdeckung für eine wulstartige Verdickung 9, die den inneren Randbereich des Gaskissens 5 bildet, und zu dessen fester Halterung beiträgt. Oberhalb dieses Endbereiches 7 bil­ det der Haltering 6 eine Ablenkschräge 8 für das aus den Ab­ strömöffnungen 2 austretende Gas.At its inner end region 7 , the retaining ring 6 is bent back to the top of the generator carrier 4 and thus forms a complete cover for a bead-like thickening 9 , which forms the inner edge region of the gas cushion 5 , and contributes to its firm mounting. Above this end region 7 bil det the retaining ring 6 has a deflection slope 8 for the gas emerging from the flow openings 2 .
