ABSTRACT:
An airbag module includes an airbag with two sections that can be inflated to restrain a vehicle occupant. The inflated airbag defines a gap separating the two sections from each other on a front side of the airbag facing the vehicle occupant. A maximum distance between the airbag sections is dependent on a degree the airbag is filled with the distance decreasing as the airbag is filled. The airbag module also includes a strap at least partially fastened to an outer skin of the airbag. The strap includes at least a first and a second section of variable length. The length of the first section increases or decreases to the extent the length of the second section decreases or increases. The length of the second section defines the maximum distance between the airbag sections.
