Abstract
There is disclosed an airbag arrangement for a vehicle seat, in particular for the rear seat of a motor vehicle. The airbag is so arranged laterally at the end of a carrier which is fastened on the side of the seat or of the back rest, that a person seated neighboring the carrier is essentially protected towards the front by the airbag. The carrier is pivotably mounted about an axis from a rest position into a working position and vise versa, this axis lying approximately parallel to a cutting axis formed between the seat surface and the back rest surface. The carrier together with airbag located thereon, in the rest position, lies in a recess in the seat surface or back rest surface, flushly closed with this surface.
