Device for inflating an airbag

摘要

A device for inflating an airbag (9) has a gas generator (1) that produces an inflation gas. A valve control adjusts the cross-section of a flow channel (2) through which the inflation gas is supplied to the interior of the airbag by means of valve elements (3, 4). The valve elements are held in an unactivated position by holding elements (5, 6) with a holding force that is lower than the actuating force used to actuate the valve elements.
