An apparatus for assisting in protecting an occupant of a vehicle includes an airbag (100) configured to be mounted on a steering wheel of the vehicle. The airbag includes an inflatable main chamber configured to cover a steering wheel, and an inflatable lateral chamber (120) configured to cover a vehicle A-pillar. The apparatus also includes a tether actuation unit (130) and a tether (124) connected to the tether actuation unit and a portion of the bladder that assists in defining the lateral chamber. The tether actuation unit has an unactuated state in which a connection with the tether is maintained, the connection limiting deployment of the lateral chamber. The tether actuation unit also has an actuated state in which the tether actuation unit is released from the tether and the lateral chamber is fully deployed.

    一种用于帮助保护车辆的乘员的设备包括被配置成安装在车辆方向盘上的气囊(100)。气囊包括被配置成覆盖方向盘的充气式主腔室、以及被配置成覆盖车辆A柱的充气式侧向腔室(120)。该设备还包括系绳致动单元(130)和系绳(124),该系绳连接至系绳致动单元以及气囊的帮助限定侧向腔室的部分。系绳致动单元具有未致动状态,在该未致动状态下保持与系绳的连接,该连接限制侧向腔室的展开。系绳致动单元还具有致动状态,在该致动状态下解除系绳致动单元与系绳的连接并且使得侧向腔室完全展开。
