A gas bag arrangement for a vehicle occupant restraint system is provided. The gas bag arrangement comprises a gas bag inflatable by a gas generator to protect a vehicle occupant, whose envelope defines an interior space of the gas bag that can be filled with gas, a vent opening through which gas can flow out of the gas bag, and a device for controlling the outlet cross-section of the vent opening, which comprises at least one covering part with which the vent opening can be covered, in order to at least partly close the same, and which furthermore comprises an actuating mechanism which interacts with the covering part, in order to vary the outlet cross-section of the vent opening. The actuating mechanism includes an additional gas source and an element different from the gas bag and inflatable by means of the gas source.

A buckle device for a motor vehicle is provided. The buckle device comprising a locking tongue for inserting into a buckle and a deflecting body connected to the locking tongue, which is configured to subdivide a safety belt into a shoulder portion and a lap portion and to deflect said safety belt such that the two portions extend away from the deflecting body in different directions. The deflecting body is connected to the locking tongue via at least one elongate element, which is at least partially wound around the deflecting body.

A safety belt system for a motor vehicle is provided. The safety belt system comprising a safety belt, a shoulder portion of the safety belt, a buckle element, a mobile region of the buckle element, which under the action of forces caused by a crash is mobile from an initial position in which the safety belt may slide along the buckle element into a final position, in which the safety belt is fixed to the buckle element. The safety belt cooperating with the mobile region, such that the mobile region is movable by a force acting on the shoulder portion which tensions the shoulder portion in the direction of extension of the belt, from its initial position into its final position. The fixing of the safety belt on the buckle element is carried out by the mobile region itself.

An airbag module including an airbag that is inflated to cushion a vehicle occupant in the event of a collision. The airbag includes an inner chamber enclosed by an inner covering and a plurality of outer chambers that are arranged outside the inner chamber. The inner chamber forms an inner region of the airbag when inflated and the outer chambers at least partially surround the inner chamber when inflated. The outer chambers are in fluid communication with the inner chamber. At least some of the outer chambers are each enclosed by an outer covering having a covering section opposite the inner covering that does not delimit the inner chamber. The covering sections are at least partially spaced apart from the inner covering so that at least one clearance not filled with gas when the airbag is inflated is formed between the inner covering and the opposing covering sections.
