Abstract:
Multi-chamber airbag systems for use in aircraft and other vehicles are described herein. In some embodiments, an occupant restraint system includes a multi-chamber airbag that deploys from an occupant restraint (e.g., a lap seat belt) in an aircraft. The multi-chamber airbag can include a first portion that inflates generally upward in front of the occupant's torso, and a second portion that inflates in front of the first portion. The first portion and/or the second portion can include multiple chambers (e.g., generally cylindrical-shaped chambers) that, when inflated, provide the airbag with a shape and/or contact surfaces which can help to maintain the position of the airbag between the occupant and a strike object or hazard. In other embodiments, multi-chamber airbags configured in accordance with the present disclosure can me mounted to a structure (e.g., a monument, console, seat back, etc.) positioned generally in front of the occupant. The structure-mounted airbag can deploy generally toward the occupant in the event of a vehicle impact or other potentially harmful event to protect the occupant from impact injury.

Claim (Index 1):
An airbag system for use with a structure positioned in the vicinity of an aircraft seat, the airbag system comprising:\n an airbag assembly configured to be mounted to the structure, wherein the airbag assembly includes a multi-chamber airbag having\u2014 a first airbag portion having at least a first chamber; and a second airbag portion having at least a second chamber separate from the first chamber but in fluid communication with the first chamber, wherein in operation, the first and second airbag portions inflate and deploy generally outward from the structure and toward the aircraft seat, wherein the first airbag portion inflates generally above the second airbag portion, and wherein the second airbag portion extends further toward the aircraft seat than the first airbag portion.
