Airbag device for front passenger's seat

摘要

An airbag device for a front passenger's seat includes an airbag module and an instrument panel. The airbag module is provided in front of a front passenger's seat of a vehicle, and inflates and expands an airbag with gas jetted out by an inflator. The instrument panel includes an upper wall portion that covers the airbag module from the upper side. An aperture is formed in the upper wall portion by opening of an airbag door by inflation pressure of the airbag, and the airbag inflates toward an upward side and a vehicle rearward side from the aperture. A forward support surface is provided at the upper wall portion. The forward support surface supports the airbag inflating from the aperture from the vehicle forward side thereof, and is inclined such that a normal line of the forward support surface turns to the downward side further toward the vehicle rearward side.
