Abstract
The device is an inflatable safety air cushion for use as a safety device to protect passengers in vehicles. A gas such as nitrogen or helium is maintained at moderate pressure in an elongated container. It is transferred to a similarly elongated inflatable bag through an elongated nozzle type diffuser between the container and bag. The diffuser has a throat portion in which is positioned explosive opening or valve means in the form of a relatively thin membrane for opening the passageway to rapidly transfer the gas to the bag for inflating it without damaging the bag. The device, practically and effectively makes possible inflation of the bag in a sufficiently limited number of milliseconds to be fully operative for its purpose.
