ABSTRACT:
A method of bringing to readiness an inflatable airbag of a safety device is characterized in the interruption of the gas flow through the inlet of the airbag at a specified time instant. The interruption of the gas flow through the inlet of the airbag alternates with its resumption, generating a sequence of gas flow pulses of controllable duration and on/off time ratio.A safety device comprises the airbag (1) a gas source (3), and a valve device (8). The valve device is formed by a pneumatic distributor having two stable positions: an open position, and a closed position.
