Abstract
A radiant heater apparatus includes an interior panel, a heater main body, and a cover layer. The interior panel includes a deployment portion to be deployed into a cabin space due to a deployment of an airbag apparatus. The deployment portion has a breaking edge where a panel tear portion breaks when the airbag apparatus is deployed. The panel tear portion includes a centerline portion and a pair of sideline portions. The deployment portion includes the breaking edge that is formed along the centerline portion or the sideline portions. The deployment portion has a stress concentration portion that locally applies stress to the cover layer while at least a part of the breaking edge formed along the centerline portion is not in contact with the cover layer, when the deployment portion is deployed and comes into contact with the cover layer.
