What is the English abbreviation for airbags?

The English abbreviation for airbags is SRS. The function and working principle of automotive airbags are as follows: Function of automotive airbags: During a traffic accident, automotive airbags help reduce the severity of injuries to the chest, head, and face during a collision. Before a collision occurs, the car first comes to a stop, while the passengers inside continue moving forward at their original speed due to inertia. Working principle of automotive airbags: While the car is in motion, the sensor system continuously sends speed change information to the control unit. If the measured acceleration, speed change, or other indicators exceed predetermined values, the control unit sends an ignition command to the gas generator, or the sensor directly controls the ignition.
The English abbreviation for airbag is SRS, and its full name is Supplemental Restraint System. I often encounter car owners asking about this when working in the repair shop. The SRS system actually includes airbags and pre-tensioned seat belts. When the vehicle experiences a severe collision, the sensors immediately trigger the inflator. The airbag can fully deploy within 0.03 seconds, protecting your head and chest like an inflatable cushion. But remember, airbags must be used in conjunction with seat belts to be effective. I've seen cases where people not wearing seat belts were injured by the airbag hitting their ribs. Additionally, airbags have a service life; for cars older than eight years, it's best to check the condition of the gas generator.
