Abstract
An occupant restraining device (S) comprises a shielding member (F) and an airbag (F). The shielding member (F) in action is deployed from the peripheral edge (DW) of a window (WF) of a vehicle to shield the window. The airbag (F) in action is expanded and inflated from the peripheral edge (UW) of the window that it can be interposed between the shielding member (F) and an occupant (M). The airbag (F) allows the side of the lower end () at the time of completion of the expansion and inflation to move in the direction generally perpendicular to the window (WF). Even if the occupant (M) is close to the window (WF), the expanded and inflated airbag (F) is smoothly interposed between the occupant (M) and the window (WF).
