Abstract In the air bag according to the present invention, pouches 1g are furnished at least along a part of an opening 1d to introduce reaction gas from an inflator, and band-like ring member 1e' mounted on car body and having the plane in the direction approximately perpendicular to the cross-section of the opening 1d is inserted into the pouches 1g. Therefore, the plane of the band-like ring member 1e' runs approximately in parallel to the direction of the introduced reaction gas, and the band-like ring member 1e' is not enlarged in the direction perpendicular to the direction of the introduced reaction gas. As the result, the module can be designed in smaller size. Also, by furnishing the pouches 1g on the periphery of the opening and by inserting the band-like ring member 1e' into the pouches 1g, the number of the base cloths of the air bag can be reduced by one cloth.
An air bag in air bag equipment, having an opening to introduce reaction gas from an inflator in an emergency and inflated by said reaction gas from said inflator, said air bag comprising: pouches formed at least along a part of said opening; and band-like ring member having an elongated surface extending in a direction approximately perpendicular to a cross-section of said opening and mounted on a car body, said band-like ring member is inserted into said pouches.
