ABSTRACT:
An inflation system and method of operation are provided which utilize or employ the magnetic characteristics of certain gases to selectively alter or change one or more inflation characteristic of the inflation output provided thereby or resulting therefrom. An inflation system for providing a supply of inflation medium to an inflatable restraint element includes an inflator device having a first chamber having contents including a quantity of at least one gaseous material having magnetic characteristics. The inflation system also includes a magnetic field inductor in magnetic field change inducing communication with at least a portion of the first chamber contents quantity of the at least one gaseous material having magnetic characteristics, wherein activation of the magnetic field inductor effects a change in at least one inflation characteristic of the inflator device, e.g., rise rate, gas mass flow rate and pressure output, produced or generated by the inflator.
