Abstract

A seatbelt airbag for a vehicle is provided. The airbag is inflated in a seatbelt to restrain an occupant to reduce an injury to the occupant caused by the seatbelt. Particularly, since the airbag is locally inflated at occupant's shoulder and hip which are susceptible to injury by the seatbelt, an inflation speed is controlled, an impact is minimized, and the occupant may be restrained in the seat more rapidly and stably.
