ABSTRACT:
An airbag and an airbag device are provided that include a left airbag section and a right airbag section which sufficiently absorbs shock when they receive an occupant. In one form, an airbag includes a left airbag section which is inflated at the left front side of an occupant, a right airbag section which is inflated at the right front side of the occupant, and a base-end chamber connecting one end of the left airbag section and one end of the right airbag section to each other. When the inflation of the airbag is completed, a connecting member connecting the left airbag section and the right airbag section is disposed at a height P, which is below a mid-point M of the left airbag section and the right airbag section in a vertical direction. When the airbag is in an inflated state, a vertical peripheral length of a left side of the left airbag section is shorter than a vertical peripheral length of a left outside panel adjacent the center of a vehicle body.
