1. An airbag comprising:
a base panel defining an inflator opening with which an inflator for delivering inflation gas into the airbag can be coupled, the base panel comprising a top end and a bottom end, wherein the base panel is configured to be mounted to a vehicle such that the top end of the base panel is at an upper position and the bottom end of the base panel is at a lower position, relative to the vehicle, when the airbag is in a deployed state; a cushioning panel attached to the base panel and cooperating therewith to define an inflatable chamber; a deflector attached to the base panel and positioned between the base panel and the cushioning panel, wherein the deflector covers the inflator opening of the base panel and cooperates with the base panel to define a lower inflation aperture that is closer to the bottom end of the base panel than is the inflator opening, and wherein the deflector is configured to direct inflation gas downwardly through the lower inflation aperture toward the bottom end of the base panel during deployment of the airbag; and a tether attached to the base panel and the cushioning panel, wherein the tether extends through the lower inflation aperture defined by the deflector and the base panel. |
