摘要

The element (11) is of a cylindrical shape with a narrow central area and extensions (14) protruding from each of its outer ends. The extensions (14) are divided into two segments (15) by a v-shaped central gap, each of the segments (15) provided with hooks (16) at their outer ends. The extensions (14) are inserted into matching openings (18) in the housing (10) of the gas generator and the housing of the airbag, kept in place by the hooks (16) and supported by two projections (17) located at the upper and the lower surface (12, 13) of the vibration absorbing element (11).
