Understanding the Airbag
Overview
Airbags have become a crucial component in automotive safety, significantly reducing injuries during car accidents by providing a protective cushion for vehicle occupants.
Functionality
An airbag, also known as the Air Cushion Restraint System (ACRS), is a flexible, inflatable device filled with air or gas. It absorbs the impact of a collision, minimizing injury. The system consists of three key parts: the airbag module, the crash sensor, and the diagnostic unit.
Components
1. Airbag Module: This contains the fabric that inflates during a collision. In vehicles like the Lincoln Town Car, there are generally two modules: the driver's airbag located in the steering wheel, and the passenger's airbag in the dashboard.
2. Crash Sensor: Positioned near the vehicle's bumper or within the passenger area, this sensor detects deceleration?"or the car’s change in speed. It triggers the airbag during a crash when significant force is detected.
3. Diagnostic Unit: This monitors the airbag's readiness. It activates when the engine starts, ensuring the system is functioning properly. If there’s an issue, a warning light alerts the driver to address the malfunction.
Evolution of Airbags
Originally, airbags were designed to address only frontal impacts, which limited their effectiveness in rollovers and side crashes. However, advancements in technology have led to the inclusion of rear, side, and curtain airbags, offering broader protection.
Airbags have come a long way in enhancing vehicle safety, and future innovations are expected to further improve their functionality.
