Thereby, the first, second and third airbags 22, 23, 24 are inflated. When the first solenoid valve 72 is demagnetized, the air inside the first, second and third airbags 22, 23, 24 is discharged outside through the solenoid valve. As a result, the first, second and third airbags 22, 23, 24 are deflated.

Similarly, when the second solenoid valve 73 is energized, air is delivered from the air pump 71 to the fourth, fifth and sixth airbags 32, 33, 34 through the air tube 74, the second solenoid valve 73 and the air tube 76. Air is supplied. As a result, the fourth, fifth and sixth airbags 32, 33, 34 are inflated. When the second solenoid valve 73 is demagnetized, the air inside the fourth, fifth and sixth airbags 32, 33, 34 is discharged to the outside through the solenoid valve. As a result, the fourth, fifth and sixth airbags 32, 33, 34 are deflated.
