Meanwhile, the airbag is provided with a safety valve, when the airbag is overinflated or the pressure inside the airbag is greater than a certain value, some gas will be discharged automatically, thereby avoiding the damage to a person inside the vehicle due to crushing.

From the people-oriented view, accidental falling may cause damage to old people due to the weak body function, low physical quality and hip muscle atrophy. In severe cases, evenly it may be life-threatening. For the elderly people capable of disposing, if the electric induction device can determine the falling accidents within a few milliseconds at the moment of falling to the ground, the sensor commands the airbag to be opened by the electronic control device, and the inflated airbag can provide buffer protection for the worker's body, especially for loose bones and joints, thereby reducing the impact of falling on the elderly.

Generally the automobile airbag must be used with the safety belt; otherwise, the detonation of airbag will cause secondary damage to the driver and passenger. The automobile airbag is currently a passive device for safety protection on the cars, and can only be opened when an impact occurs.

The airbag device for human protection in prior art also has an airbag helmet. Compared with the ordinary helmet, the airbag is softer than the lining of the helmet and can absorb more impact force, but in use, it only can provide protection for the neck and head, and the other parts of the person are not protected. Thus, the protection area is small. When the user falls down, the other parts of the body such as the waist, the legs and the hips are subject to injury. Therefore, it is needed to develop an airbag protection device that is simple in structure, convenient for folding, and meet the theory of ergonomics.
