ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic bumper system for the protection of moving vehicles and passengers therein is used with a passenger safety device such as an inflatable air bag. A pressurized gas container has a flexible portion with an impact surface. The pressure of the compressible gas in this container increases upon impact with an object and causes a valve to open, directing the passage of compressed gas to inflate the air bag.
