Abstract: Element of a clamp/flange connection, which includes at least one surface structured to bear against a mating surface. The surface includes a lubricating layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a gas generator for an airbag module having a gas generator housing, in which a first chamber for receiving a propellant for igniting a main gas set in a second chamber, and an ignition device for the ignition of the propellant are provided. In order to simplify the production of the gas generator, the invention provides that the first chamber for receiving the propellant is limited by a pipe, on the first end of which the ignition device is disposed, and the second end of which reaches the gas generator housing at least approximately. The first and the second chamber are separated from each other such that no parts of the propellant may reach the second chamber via the second end of the pipe before the ignition of the propellant.

Abstract: A gas generator assembly for a motor vehicle is provided. The gas generator assembly having a gas generator which is designed to provide gas to inflate in airbag after the gas generator is activated, a filter for filtering gases provided by the gas generator and a device which is designed to release a fluid so that said fluid comes into contact with the filter. The device is designed to release the fluid at a point in time which can be pre-defined and which is independent of the point in time of the activation of the gas generator.

Abstract: A filter device for filtering a gas flow is provided. The filter device having a wound or folded filter material web. It is provided that at least one end of the filter material web has or is connected to a section which is formed by a closed sheet metal section, wherein the closed sheet metal section has at least one recess for the inflow or outflow of gas into or out of the filter device.
