Abstract

L'invention concerne un rideau gonflable latéral sur une automobile. Le rideau gonflable comprend un panneau intérieur faisant face à l'intérieur de l'automobile et un panneau extérieur opposé au panneau intérieur et faisant face à un côté intérieur de l'automobile. Une pluralité de chambres sont définies entre les panneaux intérieur et extérieur au moyen d'une pluralité de parois de chambre intermédiaires formées sur les panneaux intérieur et extérieur, et un dispositif de définition d'évidement pour former une zone d'évidement présentant une épaisseur de gonflage plus petite que les épaisseurs de gonflage, dans la direction de la largeur de l'automobile, de la pluralité de chambres, est prévu à l'avant des panneaux intérieur et extérieur. Lors d'un accident de voiture, une telle configuration peut empêcher la tête d'un passager de se déplacer vers l'avant ou l'extérieur de l'automobile à travers l'espace entre le rideau gonflable et le coussin de sécurité gonflable dans le siège du conducteur qui ont été gonflés et empêcher la tête du passager de tourner, réduisant ainsi les blessures au niveau de la tête et du cou du passager.
