GAS GENERATOR FOR A VEHICLE PASSENGER PROTECTION DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR THE ELIMINATION OF SOLID MATTER AND LIQUID BURNT RESIDUES IN A GAS FLOW

摘要

The invention relates to a gas generator (1) for a vehicle passenger protection device, comprising a combustion chamber (2) in which a gas-generating charge (3) is arranged. A conical deposition chamber (5) is provided that has a first wall (50), within which a plurality of gas through-holes (51) are formed, and at least one second wall (110) which extends at an angle from the first wall (50) and within which at least one blow-off hole (6) is formed. Gas generated inside the combustion chamber (2) enters the deposition chamber (5) through the gas through-holes (51) and leaves the deposition chamber (5) through the at least one blow-off hole (6).
