Abstract
In a passenger airbag, a loose portion is provided on a windshield side when an airbag is accommodated into an airbag case. In addition, a tip portion of the airbag is folded or rolled up on the counter-windshield side. As a result, a gas first flows into the loose portion during the deployment of the airbag. Therefore, the airbag starts to deploy from a part on the windshield side, and a portion of the airbag, which has already been inflated with its folded portion being unfolded, comes to contact with the windshield, thereby reducing the pressure applied onto the windshield. The airbag can provide suitable deployment to securely restrain an occupant, and is improved in smooth deployment. The air bag prevents undesirable pressure on the windshield without increasing the cost.
