<p>Herein disclosed is a safety device for protecting a vehicle occupant from injury during a collision of a motor vehicle. The safety device uses an inflatable protector bag which is normally stowed in a contracted condition and which is expanded and projected to a protective condition intervening between the vehicle occupant and surrounding structural parts of the vehicle cabin when an impact resulting from the collision is detected. The safety device also uses a blasting means which is adapted to destroy or release a window pane of any of the front windshield, side door windows and a rear window immediately when the inflatable protector bag is expanded. The blasting means thus protects the vehicle occupant from hurting his eardrums and/or intestines due to a sudden rise in the atmospheric pressure in the vehicle cabin. The blasting means will also facilitate the vehicle occupant to get out of the vehicle cabin through the broken windows in the event of the collision.</p> |
