Side Air Bag: Description and Operation
Driver And Passenger Air Bag Module Inflator
The driver, passenger and side air bag modules consist of the following components which cannot be disassembled:
^
inflator
^
airbag
^
container
^
cover
The inflator is screwed into a metal cup-shaped container. The air bag is then folded on top of the inflator and the whole subassembly is enclosed by the
cover.
The driver air bag module is fitted to the steering wheel, the cover forming the outer surface of the steering wheel boss. The cover has invisible "split
lines" moulded in its surfaces following the airbag to easily exit through the cover when the system deploys.
