Abstract: An airbag module reduces abrupt sideward and forward movement of an occupant in the case of an impact. The airbag module has an airbag which can be inflated by a gas generator in the case of the onset of an accident situation. The airbag includes a main restraining chamber and an additional restraining chamber which are connected to one another by a passage opening. The main restraining chamber, in an inflated state, restrains sideward movement of an occupant. The additional restraining chamber, in the inflated state, unfurls, starting from the main restraining chamber, at least with a section in front of the occupant and to restrain at least a forward movement of the occupant. The additional restraining chamber and the main restraining chamber are arranged to overlap one another at least partially in the sense that they are configured at least partially behind one another in side view.

Abstract: The invention relates to a restraint device, in particular for a motor vehicle, for reducing an abrupt sideward movement of an occupant in the case of an impact with an airbag which is inflatable by means of a gas generator when an accident situation occurs. It is provided that the airbag has at least one side chamber and one shoulder chamber which are connected together, wherein in the inflated state of the airbag the side chamber and the shoulder chamber form different main extension planes which run at an angle to one another. An anchoring strap is fastened at one end to the shoulder chamber and at the other end to the vehicle seat. The shoulder chamber comprises two regions which transition into one another and which together form a reverse U-shape, the base thereof in the inflated state of the shoulder chamber forming the upper end thereof.
