Abstract
An airbag assembly for a vehicle according to various implementations includes an inflator and an airbag cushion. In some implementations, the airbag assembly also includes a housing. The inflator and the airbag cushion are stored in the housing when the airbag is in a non-deployed state. During a vehicle accident, the airbag cushion extends out of the housing to cushion movement of a vehicle occupant. The airbag cushion includes a main panel having a first edge and a second edge, a first side panel coupled to the first edge, and a second side panel coupled to the second edge. The first side panel and the second side panel comprise protrusions and a channel is defined by a portion of the main panel between the protrusions. In some implementations, the airbag assembly includes a second inflator.
