Air bag impact protection arrangement and process for folding an air bag

摘要

An air bag impact protection arrangement for vehicle occupants includes a trough-shaped housing in which an inflating device and the folded-together air bag are housed. The inflating device is formed by an elongated tube generator. The air bag is placed into a narrow elongated storage shape by bringing the air bag into its folded-together position by combined turning and rolling foldings. In its folded-together position, the air bag is held by a surrounding protective cover envelope.
