The invention relates to a safety belt, which is in particular intended to be installed in an aircraft seat, comprising:

Safety belt, in particular for an aircraft seat

An aircraft cabin management system includes a control unit and at least one sensor intended to be incorporated into a seat and suitable for establishing a communication with the control unit in order to transmit, to the control unit, at least one signal relating to at least one measurement performed by the sensor.

Aircraft cabin management system

Described are seat units with a seat pan () coupled to a seat back (), inflatable cushions () positioned proximate the seat pan and/or the seat back, inflatable airbags () positioned proximate the inflatable cushions (), and a pressure sensor () positioned over at least one of the seat pan () and the seat back () so that the inflatable cushions () and the inflatable airbags () are substantially covered by the pressure sensor (). The pressure sensor () is configured to generate a pressure map, and a control unit () is configured to analyze the pressure map for at least one pressure irregularity within a pressure distribution, and adjust a pressure inside at least one of the inflatable cushions () and/or the inflatable airbags () to minimize the pressure irregularity within the pressure distribution.

Self-adjusting vehicle seat

Embodiments of the present invention provide an airbag door assembly for use in a vehicle. The door assembly includes a moving door panel that deforms under pressure of an airbag as it deploys. The airbag system employing this airbag door assembly may be installed in a cavity in a structure on-board the vehicle, or it may be independently mounted to a vehicle structure.

Airbag door assembly

An airbag system assembly configured to be positioned in the interior of a vehicle that includes an aft wall configured to be positioned forward of a passenger seat and an airbag system. The aft wall includes front and aft surfaces and the aft wall includes a first flap that is formed by a plurality of weakness lines in at least the front surface thereof. The airbag system includes at least a first airbag module having a first airbag support plate with front and aft surfaces. The first airbag support plate is secured to the front surface of the aft wall, and the first airbag support plate includes a first airbag that is configured to deploy in the event of a crash condition and that is disposed on the aft surface of the first airbag support plate. The first airbag is positioned adjacent the first flap.

Aircraft airbag system

Described are airbag modules for a passenger door having a door bustle, an airbag positioned adjacent the door bustle, and an inflator positioned adjacent the door bustle. As examples, a pneumatic system is coupled to the inflator and the airbag, wherein the pneumatic system includes a slide lock that is configured to couple a girt bar of an escape slide to a passenger door sill when the inflator is activated. As additional examples, a valve is coupled to an inlet of the airbag, wherein the valve is configured to prevent the pressurized gas from flowing from the inflator to the airbag when the valve is closed and is configured to allow the pressurized gas to flow from the inflator to the airbag when the valve is open.

Airbag module on passenger door

Embodiments of the present invention provide an airbag system designed to deploy from a privacy wall in a diagonal manner.

Airbag in privacy wall

Embodiments of the invention provide airbags that are guided by the seat belt, but that are not installed or incorporated into the seat belt itself. The airbags may be installed on a seat side, seat backrest, or in the seat armrest. The airbags are associated with a guiding strip that uses the seat belt to guide the airbag into the proper position in front of the passenger.

Airbag guide by seat belt

Embodiments of the present invention provide an airbag system formed from non-traditional or asymmetric airbag shapes that deflect a vehicle occupant away from an interior vehicle structure.
