Abstract
An air bag device includes a folded air bag, an inflator for supplying air to the air bag to inflate the bag, and a bag holder for holding the air bag and the inflator. Protrusions are formed on the outer surface of the inflator. The bag holder has a bottom wall with an insertion hole. The inflator is inserted into the insertion hole from the lower side of the bag holder. Pawls are upwardly extended from the circumferential edges of the insertion hole in the inward direction. The inflator is held by the bag holder in a state that the pawls retain the lower surface of the protrusions.
