Abstract

In an occupant restraint system C, an airbagis inflated by using gas, which is generated by an inflatorupon a vehicle collision, to be deployed into a shape of curtain along the inner surface of a side of a vehicle compartment. The occupant restraint system C includes pluralities of cellsand, which are inflated along the inner surfaces of a B-pillarand a C-pillar. By inclining axes Sto Sof the cellsandwith respect to an axis Pof the B-pillaror an axis Pof the C-pillar, the lower ends of these cellsandare hardly trapped by the B-pillaror the C-pillar. Thus, the cells of the airbag are prevented from being trapped by the pillars to thereby enable the smooth deployment of the airbag.
