What is the principle of automotive airbags?
1 Answers
Automotive airbags work on the principle that the sensor system continuously sends speed change information to the control unit, which analyzes and evaluates this data. The airbag system consists of an inflation sensor and an inflation mechanism, designed to: protect occupants by reducing impact with interior components, evenly distributing the collision force across the head and chest, absorbing the occupant's kinetic energy, thereby complementing the seatbelt's effectiveness. Important precautions for airbag use include: 1. Airbags must be used in conjunction with seatbelts; 2. Maintain an appropriate distance from the airbag while seated; 3. Do not place objects in front of, above, or near the airbag; 4. Maintain good driving habits to ensure sufficient distance between the chest and steering wheel.
