ABSTRACT:
An occupant restraining inflatable cushion apparatus includes a gas generator which generates a hot gas to inflate an inflatable fabric cushion of nylon-like material which is packaged about the gas generator in a deflated condition. The improvement comprises at least a portion of the inflatable cushion closest to the gas generator being a fabric having high temperature resistive properties whereby the the high temperature generated by the gas generator is prevented from pyrolizing the inflatable cushion. The high temperature resistive fabric may be fashioned as a liner which wraps around a metallic heat shield and is interposed between the heat shield and the nylon-like fabric. Alternatively the inflatable cushion may be fabricated of two different types of materials with the high temperature resistive material being used in those areas closest to the gas generator and the conventional nylon-like fabric used for the remainder of the bag more distant from the gas generator.
