See full text

The invention relates to an airbag arrangement in vehicles, which is preferably secured at the steering wheel (11) of the vehicle and which comprises a gas generator (12) which is secured to a generator carrier (14) and which can be ignited in the event of an accident, an inflatable gas bag (13) which is at least largely tightly connected to the latter via an opening (17), which is folded together and which can be inflated by the gas from the gas generator (12), and securing means (15, 16) for the edge (18) of the gas generator (12) surrounding the opening (17) which are attached to the vehicle, in particular at the steering wheel (11). The invention consists in that the gas generator (12) is attached in a resiliently yielding manner at least in one direction, preferably in all directions at least substantially perpendicular to the central axis (19) of the gas generator (12) or the generator carrier (14) or, respectively, of the steering column independently of the securing means (15, 16) for the gas bag (13).
