Side Airbag - Motor Sports (gambling) and haemorrhoidal plexus (medicine)


Side Airbag - Motor Sports (gambling)


An inflatable cushion that fills the space between the door and the occupant to prevent head, torso and pelvis injuries when a vehicle is hit from the side. Side airbags may be stored in the door-trim panel or the outboard side of the seat; they may protect the hip and torso only or also protect the head. A new design, called an inflatable tubular restraint, is stored in the edge of the roof headliner and attached at the base of the A-pillar at the front end and above the doors along the roofline at the Other. The device inflates into a somewhat stiff tube that prevents the occupant' s head from hitting the side pillar or the window.
