- an internal tether 144 is also provided inside the cushion 106.
- the internal tether 144 is also formed using the same type of base fabric as the main panels 106a and 106b, and is connected to the main panels 106a and 106b in the vehicle width direction so that the width of the cushion 106 in the vehicle width direction is increased. It is regulated.
- a predetermined outer vent (not shown) for discharging gas to the outside is also provided at a predetermined position of the cushion 106.
- the front end 122 of the first tether 112 can be connected to the main panel 106a by sewing in the same manner, for example, along the sewing location of the baffle 138 to the main panel 106a.
- the first tether 112 has a shape that is longer in the vertical direction than the front-rear direction.
- the front end 122 is formed to have a length equal to or greater than the distance D1 between the two stud bolts 110a and 110b.
- the first tether 112 is short in the front and rear of the vehicle and the front end 122 is also long in the vertical direction, so that a strong tension that pulls the rear of the vehicle in a wide range above and below the rear chamber 116 can be applied, and the swing of the rear chamber 116 can be suppressed.
- the front end 122 of the first tether 112 is connected to a range including at least the lower end 146 in the front edge portion 124 of the rear chamber 116.
- the inflator 108 since the inflator 108 is included in the rear lower part, the inflation and expansion of the entire cushion 106 occurs forward and obliquely upward.
- the front end 122 of the first tether 112 supports the lower end 146 of the rear chamber 116, so that the swing of the entire cushion 106 can also be efficiently suppressed.
- FIG. 4 is an enlarged view illustrating the vicinity of the rear chamber 116 of FIG.

- the first tether 112 having this configuration, it is possible to efficiently tension between the stud bolts 110a and 110b and the front edge portion 124 of the rear chamber 116, and to efficiently apply tension to the rear chamber 116 to suppress peristalsis. ing.
- the second tether 114 is configured to be longer in the front-rear direction than in the vertical direction. With this configuration, the second tether 114 extends from the stud bolt 110 a to the front edge portion 132 of the front chamber 118, and can prevent the front chamber 118 from swinging.
- the range in which the front end 130 of the second tether 114 and the front edge portion 132 of the front chamber 118 are connected is such that the rear end 134 of the second tether 114 is connected to the rear portion of the rear chamber 116.
- the sewing is performed in a much longer range.
- the second tether 114 can efficiently pull the front edge portion 132 of the front chamber 118 toward the stud bolt 110a when the cushion 106 is inflated and deployed. Can be prevented efficiently.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram exemplifying a state when the airbag cushion 106 in FIG. 1A is inflated and deployed.
- FIG. 5A is a view of the cushion 106 as viewed from the outside of the vehicle, and illustrates the movement of the cushion 10 in the vehicle front-rear direction by a virtual line.
- the conventional cushion 10 may be tilted forward or tilted backward due to reaction due to the pressure of the gas supplied from the inflator.
- the rear chamber 116 is supported by the tension of the first tether 112.
- the rear chamber 116 is a portion located at the root of the entire cushion 106 that contains the inflator 108 (see FIG. 3 and the like).
- the rear chamber 116 has a small capacity and quickly becomes a high pressure state immediately after the inflator 108 is operated. For this reason, the first tether 112 is quickly and strongly strained. Therefore, according to this embodiment, the first tether 112 supports the rear chamber 116 at the base of the cushion 106 with a strong tension, thereby preventing the entire cushion 106 from swinging in the front-rear direction and improving the restraining performance of the cushion 106. Can do.
- FIG. 5B is a schematic view of the cushion 106 as viewed from above, and illustrates the movement of the conventional cushion 10 in the vehicle width direction by a virtual line.
- the conventional cushion 10 sometimes swings in the vehicle width direction due to gas pressure.
- the second tether 114 in addition to the first tether 112 described above, the second tether 114 is tensioned and tension is applied to the front chamber 118 to pull the vehicle rearward. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the cushion 106 from swinging in the vehicle width direction, in particular, swinging in the vehicle width direction starting from the boundary between the front chamber 118 and the rear chamber 116.
- the side airbag device 100 of the present embodiment can efficiently suppress the swing of the cushion 106 and improve the restraining performance of the cushion 106 by the first tether 112 and the second tether 114. ing.
- the first tether 112 and the second tether 114 are both provided on the occupant side of the cushion 106 in this embodiment, but can be provided on the side opposite to the occupant, and separated from the occupant side and the opposite side. It can also be provided.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a modified example (second tether 200) of the second tether 114 of FIG.
- the second tether 114 has a belt-like shape in which the upper and lower sides are substantially parallel.
- the second tether 200 has a front end 202 whose vertical width is wider than the vertical width of the rear end 204 and the upper side 206 and the lower side 208 are rear ends. The shape spreads from 204 to the front end 202 in a non-parallel manner.
- the second tether 200 having this configuration is also sewn to the front edge portion 132 of the front chamber 118 so that the front end 202 is longer than the rear end 204, and the front edge portion 132 is efficiently pulled toward the rear end 204. It is possible to prevent the cushion 106 from swinging.
- the second tether 114 in FIG. 2 and the second tether 200 in FIG. 6 are both illustrated as polygons in the drawing, but the shape is not limited, and for example, a round shape such as an ellipse with no corners in the outline. Even if the shape is tinged, the function of pulling the front chamber 118 rearward can be achieved. Even in the second tether having such a shape, the front chamber 118 is connected to the front edge portion 132 of the front chamber 118 in a range longer than the width of the rear end, so that the front chamber 118 is efficiently pulled rearward and cushioned. The swing of 106 can be suppressed.
