Abstract:
1. A vehicle anti-rollover system adapted to exclude a direct contact in an activated condition between its members and a road surface on the side where said vehicle is rolling over in a rollover crash, comprising: at least one gas generator attached to a vehicle, adapted to produce flow of gas; at least one double guide device or double nozzle with hingedly attached covers to discharge a flow of said gas into an atmosphere, said covers and hinges adapted to swing open and direct said gas flow in a sideways direction of said vehicle and toward said road surface, where said vehicle is rolling over under a rollover force of said vehicle, when a vehicle's degree of tilt exceeds a predetermined angle and activates said at least one gas generator; said gas flow being adapted to generate a force of reaction, applied to said vehicle and directed sideways in an opposite direction to said rollover force of said vehicle, thereby reducing said rollover force of said vehicle, said force of reaction being adapted to return said vehicle to a former conditions which was prior to a rollover situation, whereby said reduced roller force minimizes the risk of a rollover crash and serious vehicle occupant's injuries.
