Tensioning device for a gas bag

摘要

A tensioning device for a head protection restraining system in vehicles comprises an inflatable gas bag with two ends extending between an A-column and a C-column of the vehicle, one of said ends of said gas bag being fastened to the A-column and the other to the C-column. To provide a tensioning device for the gas bag which ensures that the gas bag remains tensioned between the A and C columns even in its vented state, a tensioned spring is arranged between at least one of said ends of the gas bag and its adjacent column.
