Abstract
An airbag device includes an airbag that is supplied with gas generated by an inflator during a vehicle collision and that inflates and deploys from a rear side of a vehicle seat toward a front side via an upper side. In an inflated and deployed state, the airbag includes a pair of front-rear chambers extending in a seat front-rear direction via left and right sides of a head of a passenger, an airbag body that is in communication with the pair of front-rear chambers and that is disposed at a front side of the passenger between the pair of front-rear chambers, and a pair of rear tethers including one-end portions attached to the airbag body and other-end portions attached to a seatback of the vehicle seat. At least a rear tether on a side door side is configured so as to be releasable after a collision of the vehicle.
