TLDR
In this paper, an airbag module for motor vehicles comprising a housing for an inflatable airbag and a gas generator which is connected to a base element fixed to the module in the assembled state is described.Abstract:
The invention relates to an airbag module for motor vehicles comprising a housing for an inflatable airbag and a gas generator which is connected to a base element fixed to the module in the assembled state, with the gas generator and the base element being combined to form an assembly serving as a vibration absorber and being unreleasably connected to one another by at least one elastic and/or vibration damping coupling element via which the gas generator is supported over its area at the base element.read more
