Abstract: A gas generator includes a housing having an inner wall delimiting an igniter chamber peripherally, and at least one igniter opening into the igniter chamber. The gas generator further includes a cap arranged for displacement along the inner wall and delimiting the igniter chambe, said cap having a cylindrical peripheral wall and a radially extending cover wall. The peripheral wall has a first section extending from the cover wall in displacement direction (R) and a second section extending in a direction opposite thereto. The first and second sections lie against the inner wall and guide the cap during a displacement thereof. The cover wall is turned axially into the interior of the cap.

Abstract: An inflator (22) includes a structure (30, 32) that defines a first chamber (50) and a second chamber (80). The first chamber (50) contains a volume of fluid under pressure and the second chamber (80) is in fluid communication with an outlet passage (76). The inflator (22) also includes a closure member (90) openable to release the fluid to flow out of the first chamber (50). An initiator (100) is actuatable to open the closure member (90). The inflator (22) further includes a filter (130) disposed in the second chamber (80). The fluid is directed from the first chamber (50) into the second chamber (80) and through the filter (130) into the outlet passage (76) upon opening of the closure member (90).
