An airbag device configured to be disposed in front of an occupant in a vehicle includes: an inflator configured to generate gas; an airbag that is folded and housed, the airbag being configured to be inflated and deployed by the gas generated by the inflator; and a holding member including an attachment portion to which the inflator is attached, and holding the folded airbag capable of being inflated and deployed from an occupant side opposite the attachment portion. The holding member includes an inhibiting portion that covers a part of the folded airbag from the occupant side and that is configured to partially inhibit initial inflation and deployment of the airbag. The inhibiting portion has a first region and a second region where inhibiting forces that inhibit the initial inflation and deployment are different from each other.

Airbag device

An airbag device includes: an inflator generating gas; a bag-shaped airbag configured to be inflated and deployed, the airbag having a vent hole through which the gas is discharged; and a gas flow adjustment member including: a gas receiving part covering the vent hole; an opening edge portion formed at a portion of an outer peripheral edge of the gas receiving part; and an attachment edge portion for attaching the outer peripheral edge except the opening edge portion to the airbag, the attachment edge portion having an opposite portion which is opposite to the opening edge portion, in which the gas flow adjustment member is provided with at least one pleat portion formed such that a fold extends from the opening edge portion toward the opposite portion, and the at least one pleat portion is configured such that the fold is kept folded at the attachment edge portion.

Provided is an airbag device that is to be mounted in a vehicle, and includes: an inflator configured to generate a gas; an airbag configured to be inflated with the gas generated by the inflator; a holding member housing the airbag in a folded state and being provided with an opening which allows inflation and deployment of the airbag therethrough; and a flap configured to restrict inflation and deployment of the airbag through the opening, the airbag including a roll folded portion being roll-folded and disposed on an occupant side, and two flip folded portions each being accordion-folded or tucked inside and disposed on a vehicle front side, the flap including a first restricting portion covering the roll folded portion and being held between the roll folded portion and the holding member, and a second restricting portion being secured to the airbag between the two flip folded portions.
