AIRBAG DEVICE
Abstract:
PROBLEM
To provide an airbag device capable of efficiently retaining an airbag cushion in stowed form.
RESOLUTION MEANS
An airbag device 100 is provided with a bag-shaped airbag cushion 112 in a prescribed rolled or folded stowed form, and a cover member 114 for covering an outer periphery of the airbag cushion 112 in stowed form formed of a ductile fabric material containing a plurality of polymer fibers. The cover member 114 has a hard portion 124 in a state in which at least a portion of the plurality of polymer fibers are melted together, and a soft portion 126 that bends more readily than the hard portion 124 in which the percentage of the plurality of polymer fibers that are melted is at least lower than that of the hard portion 124. The airbag device 100 is characterized by a state in which the cover member 114 is bent along the soft portion 126, covering at least a portion of the outer periphery of the airbag cushion 112 in stowed form.
