Isiphethu sewashi sisetshenziswa ukuxhuma i-airbag eyinhloko (lena esesondo lokuqondisa) kanye nehhanisi lezintambo ze-airbag, empeleni okuyihhanisi lezintambo. Ngenxa yokuthi i-airbag enkulu kufanele ijikeleze nesiteringi, (singacatshangwa njengehhanisi lezintambo ezinobude obuthile, eligoqwe kushafti lesiteringi, futhi lingaxegiswa noma liqiniswe ngesikhathi esifanele lapho isondo lokuqondisa lijikeleziswa, kodwa futhi linomkhawulo, ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izintambo zocingo azikwazi ukuxhunywa kwesokunxele noma isondo lokufa) kufanele ishiywe ne-margin, futhi isondo lokuqondisa kufanele lijikiswe endaweni elinganiselwe ohlangothini olulodwa ngaphandle kokudonswa. Leli phuzu lidinga ukunakwa okukhethekile lapho ufaka, zama ukuligcina lisendaweni ephakathi
Umsebenzi Uma kwenzeka kushayisana imoto, uhlelo lwe-airbag lusebenza kahle kakhulu ekuvikeleni ukuphepha kwabashayeli nabagibeli.
Njengamanje, isistimu ye-airbag ngokuvamile iyisistimu ye-airbag yesiteringi eyodwa, noma isistimu yama-airbag amabili. Uma imoto enama-airbag amabili kanye namasistimu e-pretensioner ebhande lesihlalo ishayisana, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ijubane lingakanani, ama-airbag nama-pretensioners amabhande asebenza ngesikhathi esisodwa, okuholela ekumoshweni kwama-airbag ngesikhathi kushayisana isivinini esiphansi kanye nokwenyuka okukhulu kwezindleko zokuyilungisa.
I-double-action dual airbag system ingakhetha ngokuzenzakalela ukusebenzisa ipretensioner yebhande lesihlalo kuphela, noma ipretensioner yebhande lesihlalo kanye nama-airbag amabili ukuze isebenze ngesikhathi esisodwa ngokwejubane nokusheshisa kwemoto uma imoto ishayisana. Ngale ndlela, uma kwenzeka kushayisana ngesivinini esiphansi, uhlelo lungakwazi ukuvikela ngokwanele abagibeli ngokusebenzisa amabhande ezihlalo kuphela, ngaphandle kokumosha ama-airbag. Uma ukushayisana kwenzeka ngesivinini esingaphezu kuka-30km/h, amabhande ezihlalo nama-airbag asebenza ngesikhathi esifanayo ukuvikela ukuphepha kwabashayeli nabagibeli.
Ukuphepha kwemoto kuhlukaniswe ukuphepha okusebenzayo nokuphepha okungenzi lutho. Ukuphepha okusebenzayo kuchaza ikhono lemoto lokuvikela izingozi, kanti ukuphepha kwezimoto kubhekisela emandleni emoto ukuvikela abagibeli uma kwenzeka ingozi. Uma imoto ibandakanyeka engozini, ukulimala kwabangaphakathi kwenzeka ngokuphazima kweso. Isibonelo, engozini yemoto engu-50 km/h, kuthatha kuphela ingxenye yeshumi yomzuzwana. Ukuze kuvinjwe ukulimala kwabangaphakathi ngesikhathi esifushane kangako, kufanele kuhlinzekwe ngezinto zokuphepha. Njengamanje, kunamabhande ezihlalo ikakhulukazi, i-anti-collision body kanye nohlelo lokuvikela ama-airbag (I-Supplemental Inflatable Restraint System, ebizwa nge-SRS) njalonjalo.
Njengoba izingozi eziningi zingenakugwenywa, ukuphepha kokungenzi lutho nakho kubaluleke kakhulu. Njengomphumela wocwaningo wokuphepha kokungenzi lutho, ama-airbag athuthukiswe ngokushesha futhi aduma ngenxa yokusebenzisa kwawo kahle, imiphumela emangalisayo kanye nezindleko eziphansi.
ukuzijwayeza
Ukuhlola nokwenza kufakazele ukuthi ngemva kokuba imoto ifakwe i-airbag system, izinga lokulimala komshayeli kanye nabangaphakathi engozini yokushayisana kwemoto liyancipha kakhulu. Ezinye izimoto azifakelwe ama-airbag ngaphambili kuphela, kodwa nama-airbag asemaceleni, nawo akwazi ukufutha ama-airbag asemaceleni uma imoto ishayisana, ukuze kwehle ukulimala uma ishayisana. Isiteringi semoto esinomshini we-airbag ngokuvamile asihlukani nesiteringi esijwayelekile, kodwa uma kushayisana kakhulu ngaphambili kwemoto, i-airbag "izophuma" esiteringini ngokuphazima kweso bese iyibeka phakathi kwesiteringi nomshayeli. Ukuvimbela ikhanda nesifuba somshayeli ekushayeni izinto eziqinile njengesondo lokushayela noma ideshibhodi, le divayisi emangalisayo isisindise izimpilo eziningi kusukela yethulwa. Isikhungo socwaningo eMelika sihlaziye izingozi zezimoto ezingaphezu kuka-7 000 e-United States kusukela ngo-1985 kuya ku-1993 sathola ukuthi izinga lokufa kwemoto enomshini we-airbag lehle ngo-30% phambi kwemoto, izinga lokufa komshayeli lehla ngo-30%. AmaSedan ehle ngamaphesenti ayi-14.
