Airbag body Structure: The "Metamorphoses" from Film to three-dimensional support

1. Protective Layer: The Environmental Shield

Positioned as the outermost layer, it utilizes 0.2–0.5 mm thick thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film or nylon composites, enhanced with dual protective coatings:

Physical Protection

  • Abrasion Resistance: Polyurethane or silicone coatings prevent wear from seat friction.
  • Puncture Resistance: Shields against sharp objects (e.g., keys, belt buckles).

Chemical Protection

  • Anti-Aging Agents: Resist UV radiation, ozone exposure, and thermal aging (-40°C to 85°C).
  • Anti-Static Properties: Minimize dust adhesion for cleaner surfaces.


2. Support Layer: The Inflatable Framework

Built from multi-layer TPU films fused via high-frequency welding or heat-sealing processes, this layer defines airbag geometry and performance:

Zoned Inflation Control

  • 3–5 Independent Air Chambers (e.g., left, right, center) linked to separate valves and gas generators.
  • Adaptive Support: Sensors detect pressure imbalances (e.g., left lumbar strain), triggering targeted inflation for precision ergonomic support.

Curvature Shaping Technology

  • Pre-Embossed Patterns or 3D Woven Meshes guide inflation paths, forming anatomically optimized shapes like "saddle profiles" (lower center, raised sides) to align with natural lumbar curvature.

3. Contact Layer: The Comfort Interface

The innermost layer uses 3D spacer fabric or slow-recovery memory foam to optimize tactile interaction:

3D Spacer Fabric (5–10 mm thickness)

  • Composition: Interwoven polyester and spandex fibers.
  • Key Benefits:
    • Ventilation: Open-grid structure prevents heat buildup.
    • Pressure Redistribution: Elastic deformation evens out body pressure.
    • Instant Rebound: Rapid shape recovery post-deflation.

Slow-Recovery Memory Foam

  • Zero-Pressure Comfort: Micro-open-cell structure conforms to body contours under load, then gradually rebounds via molecular entanglement.
  • Premium Application: Used in luxury models for silky-smooth massage sensations.
