Abstract: A side airbag device is provided in a seat back of a vehicle seat. The side airbag device includes: a primary airbag configured to be inflated and deployed forward and in an up-and-down direction from an outer portion of the seat back in a vehicle width direction; and a secondary airbag connected to an inner portion of the primary airbag in the vehicle width direction, communicating with the primary airbag through a first communication hole, and configured to be inflated and deployed inward in the vehicle width direction from the primary airbag. The first communication hole is at least partially arranged more forward than a front surface of the outer portion of the seat back in an inflated and deployed state of the primary airbag. The secondary airbag comes in contact with a front surface of the seat back in an inflated and deployed state of the secondary airbag.

Abstract: A side airbag device is provided in a seat back of a vehicle seat. The side airbag device includes: a primary airbag configured to be deployed forward and in an up-and-down direction from an outer portion of the seat back in a vehicle width direction; and a secondary airbag connected to the primary airbag via a connecting portion, communicating with the primary airbag through a communication hole provided in the connecting portion, and configured to be deployed in the vehicle width direction from the primary airbag. The secondary airbag is folded to a side opposite to the primary airbag along a first fold passing above the connecting portion and extending in a front-and-rear direction. In a state where the secondary airbag is folded along the first fold, the primary airbag and the secondary airbag are wound or folded around an axis extending in the up-and-down direction.

Abstract: A head protection airbag apparatus includes an airbag which is stored on an upper edge side of a vehicle window and is deployed and inflated to cover the window, and a protector which stores a folded body of the airbag. An upper edge side portion of the window includes a vehicle body side member which partially protrudes toward a vehicle inner side around an upper side of a storage region of the folded body. The protector includes a cover part which is disposed in a disposition region of the vehicle body side member. The cover part includes a door part which can be opened such that a tip end side is rotated upward while covering a region extending from a vehicle inner side lower corner part to a vehicle inner side surface of the vehicle body side member when the airbag is being deployed and inflated.

Abstract: A side curtain airbag system 10 includes: an airbag body 21 mounted on a vehicle interior side of a roof side part of a body and deploying upon supply of gas; and a protector 22 designed to hold the airbag body 21 and guide deployment of the airbag body 21. The protector 22 includes: a main body part 41 extending along the roof side part and covers the airbag body 21; multiple first ribs extending toward a vehicle exterior from the main body part 41, capable of making contact with the body at the time of deployment of the airbag body 21, and arranged in a direction in which the main body part 41 extends; and a second rib 43 connecting an adjacent pair, of the first ribs 42 to each other, and extending toward the vehicle exterior and obliquely downward from the main body part 41.
