Unbalanced twill weave fabric and airbag device

摘要

The present invention relates to an unbalanced twill weave fabric having fill yarns at least about three times larger than the warp yarns. Such a fabric thus has increased strength provided by the fill direction. The present invention further relates to an airbag restraint device for vehicles, where the airbag is constructed of the unbalanced twill weave fabric and has the fill yarns oriented substantially parallel to the longest direction of the airbag.
