Abstract
A gas generator for a vehicle occupant restraining system is provided with an ignitor with a propelling charge container containing two charges with different speeds of combustion. The container has a bottom with an aperture, which is normally closed by a blow-out diaphragm. The propelling charge with the lower speed of combustion is arranged in a first chamber exposed to the ignitor. A second chamber containing the propelling charge with the higher speed of combustion is partitioned off by an internal tubular blow-out wall, adapted to be consumed as combustion of the first charge progresses.
