ABSTRACT:
To protect a vehicle occupant from injury by a safety airbag activated in the event of a collision when the occupant's actual position is different from a normal occupant restraint position, an occupant-moving arrangement is provided to move the occupant into the normal restraint position prior to full activation of an airbag. The occupant-moving arrangement is effected by inflation of the airbag with an initially limited pressure or by a movable cushion or a pivoted flap driven by a gas generator.
