Abstract: The far side airbag system has an airbag which is deployed and inflated between adjacent vehicle seats arranged side-by-side in the width direction when an impact is detected against one of a pair of side wall portions of the vehicle. The airbag includes an upper inflation portion having a portion deployed and inflated on a lateral side of a head portion of an occupant seated in the vehicle seat on a side farther from the specific side wall portion, and a lower inflation portion in which a portion including at least a lower end of the lower inflation portion is deployed and inflated between a console box arranged between the adjacent vehicle seats and the occupant. In the upper inflation portion, the portion positioned on the lateral side of the head portion is deployed and inflated such that a dimension in the width direction increases toward a front side.

Abstract: Provided is an airbag which can be easily manufactured though it is provided with a tether inside, and has a reduced fear of gas leakage from a joint region. The airbag includes a joint region of outer circumferential edges of a pair of walls. The joint region includes, between the outer circumferential edges of the pair of walls, a sealing member which has elasticity, and has adhesiveness in an unsolidified state. The joint region is formed by such a sewing that runs a sewing thread through an application area of the sealing member. A tether connects the pair of walls. The joint region includes a region in which the sealing member has a solidified, thus non-adhesive surface, and is pressed against at least one of the walls by the non-adhesive surface, and penetrated by the sewing thread in that state.

Abstract: A far-side airbag apparatus includes: an airbag which is fixed via a fixed portion set in a rear end portion of the airbag, and protects an upper body of an occupant, who sits on a vehicle seat positioned apart from a side wall portion of a vehicle in which multiple vehicle seats are provided side by side in a width direction, by deploying and inflating the airbag diagonally forward and upward from the fixed portion between adjacent vehicle seats via inflating gas which is supplied from a gas generator according to a side impact applied to the side wall portion of the vehicle, wherein a rear lower portion of the airbag is formed as a support portion that has a high rigidity and supports an upper portion positioned higher than the rear lower portion of the airbag.
