An interior panel assembly and an airbag device are provided that are equipped with means for preventing an interior panel and a backing plate from becoming detached from each other. When an inflator 14 discharges gas, movable door-frame members 32 are moved (lifted) upward by being pushed upward by an inflating airbag 12. An instrument panel 20 ruptures along a peripheral tear line 24, causing a door portion 25 to be cut and separated from the surrounding instrument panel 20. Grooves 43 serving as rupturable sections extend along joint sections between backing plates 32a and leg plates 32b of the movable door-frame members 32. When the backing plates 32a of the movable door-frame members 32 open outward together with the door portion 25, the grooves 43 rupture to cause the backing plates 32a to become partially separated from the leg plates 32b. At the sections of the backing plates 32a partially separated from the leg plates 32b, the backing plates 32a become substantially flat as a result of the partial separation from the leg plates 32b (Fig. 2). |
