Abstract: There is provided an occupant protection device for protecting an occupant seated on a seat, including: an airbag folded and accommodated in a bag shape made of a flexible sheet material; and a holding belt portion that is wrapped around a hip of the occupant and holds the folded airbag. The airbag is configured to, when the airbag is activated, allow an inflation gas to flow thereinto, and inflate to protrude forward and upward from the holding belt portion, and includes an upper body restraining surface capable of restraining an upper body of the occupant, on a rear surface side, when inflation is completed, and a vehicle body side member abutting surface that abuts against a vehicle body side member provided in front of the seat to be capable of ensuring a reaction force of the airbag when the occupant is restrained, on a front surface side.

Abstract: A steering wheel includes a decorative component and a surface skin on a surface of the rim. The decorative component is formed into a band and a leading-end portion of the decorative component has a tapered form in which an inner edge curves towards an outer circumference of the rim and serves as a curving edge. The surface skin includes a curved-side section adjoining the curving edge and a non-curved-side section adjoining a non-curving edge of the leading-end portion. The curved-side section includes a main body that includes a curving portion which corresponds to the curving edge of the leading-end portion in shape, and an extended portion that extends beyond an apex of the leading-end portion and extends towards the non-curving edge of the leading-end portion of the decorative component. A region of the extended portion beyond the apex is joined to a leading edge of the non-curved-side section.
