摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an airbag device for rear-end collision of a vehicle equipped with a back door capable of exerting an impact absorbing function and an occupant restraining function by spreading and inflating an airbag cushion in a position between the head of the occupant and the back door certainly even in case the seat back moves backward with the impact in the event of rear-end collision.;SOLUTION: The airbag device to work against rear-end collision of the vehicle includes a movement restricting member 9 to restrict the backward movement of the seat back 53 in order to generate a spreading/inflating space for the airbag cushion. Concretely the movement restricting member 9 is formed from rack members 91 and 92 protruding toward the inside of the cabin (toward the center across the vehicle width) from the trim surfaces constituting cabin side walls 10 located behind the seat back 53.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
