AIR BAG MODULE CASE FOR AUTOMOBILE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optimize the deformation of an air bag module case. SOLUTION: An air bag module case 1 for an automobile has a longitudinal case body 3 used to accommodate a gas generator and an Air bag and closed at the side with two side covers 8, and the air bag module case 1 is deformed at the time of the collision of the body part of a passenger, particularly the head. Each side cover 8 is provided with at least one slit 15 extended over the greater part of each side cover 8 almost at a right angle to the predicted colliding direction of the body part.
