Abstract
A side airbag device for a vehicle, comprising: an airbag cushion that is built into a backrest of a seat and inflated and deployed so as to correspond to the entire side surface of an occupant's upper body in the event of a side impact crash of the vehicle; and an inflator that generates gas according to an impact detection signal in the event of the side impact crash of the vehicle to supply the gas to the airbag cushion, wherein the airbag cushion is configured such that the height of upward inflation and deployment is expanded by contact with the occupant's arm, thereby avoiding interference with a curtain airbag at the initial stage of deployment of the airbag cushion and safely protecting the head of the occupant by expanding an upper chamber thereof upward by contact with the occupant's arm.
