ABSTRACT:
A cover structure for an air bag device comprises a cover including a first member having a plane-like portion and a second member having a vertical portion connected through a curved part with the plane-like portion at an angle, and a rupturable groove formed on a surface of the cover opposite to an air bag in the air bag device to rupture in response to inflation of the air bag and to form an opening for causing the air bag to expose.The rupturable groove is formed throughout the first and second members in such a manner that it extends to coincide substantially with a direction of shearing force applied on the cover when the rupturable groove is ruptured.
