Abstract: A vehicle occupant restraint systems including an airbag which has a first airbag chamber and a second airbag chamber or, more generally, a first partial region and a second partial region. The first and the second airbag chambers are connected to each other so that, as a function of the internal pressures present, gas from the first airbag chamber can flow into the second airbag chamber and gas from the second airbag chamber can flow into the first airbag chamber. The second airbag chamber may include an elastic wall, so that, upon a loading of the first airbag chamber, gas flows into the second airbag chamber and, in the process, elastically expands the second airbag chamber.

Abstract: An airbag for a vehicle passenger restraint system includes at least one airbag chamber that can be filled with gas and has at least one outflow device through which gas can escape from the airbag chamber. The outflow device includes a tubular extension defined on a wall of the at least one airbag chamber that provides an outflow opening of the at least one airbag chamber.

Abstract: A gas bag in which an orifice is opened or closed with the aid of a control band as soon as the gas bag has reached a predetermined state of deployment. One end of the control band is fastened to a gas bag envelope in the region of the orifice. The control band is connected at its other end to the gas bag envelope so that, when the predetermined state of deployment is reached, the control band slips into the gas bag envelope so that the orifice is closed by the slipped-in region of the gas bag envelope by the internal pressure of the gas bag, or the control band slips out of the gas bag envelope so that the previously closed orifice is opened.

Abstract: A safety device for a motor vehicle, having an inflatable airbag which, to protect a vehicle occupant on a vehicle seat—in particular when an accident or a hazardous situation occurs—is inflated and deployed laterally next to the vehicle occupant, and having a supporting device which interacts with the airbag and prevents or at least reduces a lateral movement of the airbag when the vehicle occupant plunges into the airbag.
