Abstract
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.
