Abstract: It is provided a method for manufacturing a gas bag module of a vehicle occupant restraint system. The method comprising the steps: providing a gas bag; prefolding the gas bag; pressing at least a portion of the prefolded gas bag under the influence of heat; and folding the pressed gas bag to a final dimension.

Abstract: It is provided a vehicle occupant restraint system comprising an airbag module and a vehicle seat, wherein the airbag module comprises an inflatable gas bag and the vehicle seat comprises a backrest with a front side, a rear side, a left side, a right side and an upper side. The gas bag is arranged at the backrest of the vehicle seat in such a way that in the inflated state the gas bag extends over a portion of the rear side of the backrest, over a portion of the left or the right side of the backrest and over a portion of the upper side of the backrest and is supported on the portion of the rear side of the backrest, on the portion of the left or the right side of the backrest and on the portion of the upper side of the backrest.

Abstract: An airbag system for a motor vehicle including a gas bag having first and second chambers. The system includes an inflator and a arranged in the connecting portion so that gas is guided into both the first and second chambers. The system includes at least one protective layer extending from the mass flow divider into the first chamber. Upon inflation of the gasbag, an inner pressure in the first chamber is significantly higher than an inner pressure in the second chamber, and wherein the protective layer comprises a flexible material deformed by the inner pressure in the first chamber to prevent gas from flowing from the first chamber through the connecting portion into the second chamber.
