ABSTRACT:
An air bag mounting structure for a passenger-side air bag is formed of a retainer, an air bag, and a mounting frame for fixing the air bag to the retainer. The retainer includes an inflator housing for receiving an inflator therein, a neck portion formed at one side of the inflator housing, and an air bag housing for retaining the air bag. The air bag housing has a collar portion extending laterally outwardly from the neck portion above the inflator housing. The mounting frame is situated inside the air bag housing, and has a flange disposed on the collar portion above the neck portion. When the air bag is attached to the retainer, the mouth of the air bag is sandwiched between the collar portion and the flange in the air bag housing. Thus, gas leakage between the air bag and the retainer can be prevented.
