<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently utilize a gas generating agent by providing a housing with an inflator which generates pressure gas to expand an air bag, and starting the inflator, in response to the collision of a vehicle, and keeping the air bag capably of opening at the housing. SOLUTION: An air bag module 110 attached to the ceiling of the cabin 195 of an automobile includes an inflator module 120 and an air bag 110. The air bag 110 is coupled with the inflator module 120, and is attached to the ceiling. In the case that the unfolding of the air bag 110 is judged to be necessary, a sensor/diagnosing module sends a signal to the inflator module 120, and starts combustion of the gas generating agent. The inflator module 120 consists of a gas generator composed of a housing which lets produced gas flow out. The gas generating agent 127 is attached to a tube 121. By the above, the consumption of the generated energy can be made small.</p> |
