ABSTRACT:
An insert plate is embedded in an air bag cover, and is provided with an insert supporting portion, a pair of insert expanding portions and a coupling portion for coupling the insert expanding portions. Notches are provided in the insert supporting portion on both sides of the coupling portion. Terminals of a H-shaped rupture portion are positioned on inclined surfaces of the insert supporting portion. Accordingly, when the air bag cover expands due to a vehicle decelerating rapidly, a rupture is generated along the inclined surfaces, and an expansion occurs with a position offset by the notches as an expansion center line. Therefore, the air bag cover can be ruptured along a predetermined rupture line, and expand to the maximum.
