ABSTRACT:
A vehicle occupant restraint system comprises an inflatable air bag (12), an air bag canister (24) having walls defining an interior chamber (25) in which the air bag is stored, and a source of inflation fluid (20) for inflating the air bag. The source of inflation fluid includes (i) an inflator body (21) having opposite ends and (ii) a nozzle opening (23) disposed at one end of the inflator body. A deflector panel (50) is attached to the air bag. The deflector panel defines an opening (45) through which inflation fluid flows to inflate the air bag. The deflector panel has surfaces (71, 72) that deflect inflation fluid flow from the nozzle opening (23) and through the opening (45).
