The lid 14' covering the open face of the airbag container 12 turns on hinge pins 60 hinging one side of the lid to one side of the front edge of the container, so that when the inflater operates to deploy the air bag the lid opens on the hinge in the direction indicated at 100. In addition, the back up plate 22' of the lid is provided with a weakened portion, eg perforated or split, at 400, so that when the edge 14'a of the lid contacts the instrument panel 68 the lid deforms to continue opening. <IMAGE> |
