A collision accident response system for a vehicle includes: a transparent glass attached to a front surface of the vehicle; a transparent pressure sensor film attached to a rear surface of the transparent glass; and a control unit embedded in the vehicle. The control unit is configured to determine a height and a collision strength of a collision object by a collision pressure detected by the transparent pressure sensor film. As a result, the collision accident response system for a vehicle enables a rapid and accurate response to collision accidents in vehicles equipped with the front glass.

Collision accident response system and method for a vehicle

An apparatus for preventing a sub-frame of an electric vehicle with a wireless charging pad from being pushed back includes: a push bracket member having one side portion coupled to a front end module provided in front of a sub-frame of the electric vehicle and extending to be disposed between the sub-frame and a wireless charging pad mounted below the sub-frame. Upon a forward vehicle collision, the apparatus can induce deformation of the sub-frame equipped with the wireless charging pad to prevent the sub-frame from being pushed backward.

A panoramic window safety system applied to a vehicle moves a piston in a piston movement space of a piston carriage by a gas pressure of an inflator located on the bottom portion of a panoramic window space, and switches a wire that forms a side bending arrangement in the panoramic window space into an intermediate linear arrangement by a forward movement of the piston to be stood perpendicular to the panoramic window space to support an airbag covering the panoramic window space, preventing the risk of a passenger leaving when a panoramic window having the size at which the upper body of a passenger is exposed is damaged to meet the North American regulations that prescribe preventing the passenger from leaving.

An embodiment occupant restraining apparatus includes a base to be fastened to a body of a vehicle, a support having a first end hinge-connected to the base and a second end configured to support a deployed airbag, and a bellows configured to be expanded by gas to pivot the support. During deployment of the airbag, the bellows is configured to receive the gas in concert with the deployment of the airbag.

Occupant restraining apparatus, and control system and method thereof

A variable back beam and a method of allowing an inflator to vary the variable back beam in case of collision. The variable back beam includes a main beam connected to a front end module carrier, an inner beam inserted into each of both sides of the main beam, and an operation member operable to move the inner beam in a vehicle-width direction at the time of left front or right front collision of the vehicle. Since the back beam is extended in length at the time of collision, the impact area or shock absorption area of the back beam can be increased, the impact on the back beam, a crush box, and a collision object can be reduced, and particularly, it is possible to reduce the crush length of the left or right end of the back beam.
