ABSTRACT:
A clamping device for clamping an automotive air bag to an air bag inflator. The clamping device includes an annular ring and a module housing wherein walls are attached perpendicular to the bodies of the clamping members at their inflator-side boundaries. When the periphery of the gas inlet opening is placed between the walls and the bodies of the clamping members the air bag is held in place by both radial and axial clamping thus securing the air bag during deployment. Undersized fastener openings in the module housing in conjunction with radial clamping provide clamping of the air bag during assembly of the air bag module without installation and securing of the inflator.
