Abstract
A vehicle occupant restraint system, particularly for vehicle occupant side restraint, includes an inflatable gas bag which, in a restraint situation, is fully inflated and is arranged in a final, desired position to restrain a vehicle occupant, a gas generator and a means engaging the gas bag. The means pulls the gas bag in a restraint situation into the desired position and maintains it in this position when the vehicle occupant impacts the gas bag.
