SAFETY MODULE FOR A VEHICLE

A safety module for a vehicle includes a housing having an opening that accommodates an airbag associated with the safety module during deployment of the airbag, and at least one cover attached over the opening of the housing. The cover is connected to the housing through one or more hinges, where each hinge is formed by one or more curved portions and one or more flat portions arranged adjacent to each other along a hinge axis. The flat portions include one or more ribs protruding from an upper surface of the flat portions, which can be welded to an inner surface of a carrier of the vehicle for preventing the separation of the cover during airbag deployment.
