Gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system

摘要

A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a mounting ( 10 ) which has an outlet opening ( 18 ) closed by a cover ( 16 ). The gas bag module further comprises a gas bag ( 14 ) accommodated in the mounting ( 10 ), which unfolds from a folded state out of the outlet opening ( 18 ) when the gas bag module ( 12 ) is activated. In the folded state the gas bag ( 14 ) is folded in a mushroom-like manner. A non-folded section ( 20 ) of the gas bag ( 14 ) is delimited by a constriction ( 22 ) and lies directly opposite the cover ( 16 ).
