Abstract: An airbag includes a bag body and an inlet port section of inflation gas. As a gas receivable region, the bag body includes a front main inflatable region, a rear main inflatable region, a feed path that feeds the inflation gas from the inlet port section to the front and rear main inflatable regions, and a sub inflatable region that absorbs the gas from the front main inflatable region when a pressure of the front main inflatable region soars. A front partitioning region partitions the front main inflatable region from the sub inflatable region. The front partitioning region is disposed in front of a front end of an upper partitioning region in an island-like fashion remote from other uninflatable region so as to provide, at the rear of and there beneath, one each communication passage that provides gas communication between the front main inflatable region and the sub inflatable region.

Abstract: A head-protecting airbag device includes: an airbag loaded in a vehicle as a completely folded body folded to be storable in the storage portion; and a regulation member, to be arranged near a bent portion in the completely folded body at a time of conveyance. The regulation member is formed of a belt-shaped body having flexibility, and capable of regulating a twist of the completely folded body at the bent portion when the completely folded body is assembled into the vehicle. In a state where a protrusion part is engaged with a periphery of an assembly hole, both front and rear sides of the protrusion part are wrapped together with the completely folded body by a wrapping material. A length dimension of a portion between the assembly holes is set to be a length dimension which disenables one turn of twist in a circumferential direction of the completely folded body.

Abstract: A head-protecting airbag device includes a case which houses an airbag in a folded-up configuration and a mounting bracket which is used to mount an inflator on a vehicle body structure. The case is mounted on a region of the airbag extending from one end of the inflator. The mounting bracket includes an insert region which fits in an assembling opening of the case. The assembling opening includes a receiving region which receives the insert region along an axial direction of the inflator and a limiting plane that is located in a periphery of the receiving region and holds the insert region from rotating in both directions in a circumferential direction of the inflator. The fitting of the insert region and assembling opening suppresses the airbag stored in the case in the folded-up configuration from rotating in a circumferential direction.
