  • Patent number: 9889814
    Abstract: An airbag, especially for a vehicle occupant restraint system, in the inflated condition includes a front side (112) forming the occupant impact surface and an opposite rear side (114), wherein the cover portions (102a, 102b, 102c) forming the front side (112) and the rear side (114) are interconnected at their longitudinal edges (110). Along a center line (M) of the respective side extending in the longitudinal direction of the airbag (100) the front side (112) is longer than the rear side (114) so that in the inflated condition the airbag (100) takes a curved shape. The front side (112) and, resp., the rear side (114) includes at least one connecting line (108) substantially extending transversely to the center line (M) at which two cover portions (102a, 102c) are interconnected, wherein at least one of the cover portions (102a) in the cut includes a boundary contour (104) concavely or convexly extending transversely to the center line (M).
