摘要： A new air bag restrictor for restricting the inflation of a driver's side air bag that has not inflated after a crash to permit safe extraction of an injured person within the vehicle. The inventive device includes an elongate bar having a longitudinal axis, a first end portion, a central portion, and a second end portion. The central portion is designed for positioning over the central hub of a steering wheel housing an air bag device. The second end portion is designed for abutting against the backside of a portion of the peripheral rim of a steering wheel. The first end portion forms a hook having an arcuate region and an arm region. The arm region of the hook is spaced apart from the central region to define a hooking space for receiving another portion of the perimeter rim of a steering wheel therein. The arm region also has a first bore extending therethrough while the central portion has a second bore extending therethrough coaxial with the first bore. One end of a securing pin is insertable through the first and second bores to secure a portion of the peripheral rim of a steering wheel within the hook space.
