ABSTRACT:
A deployment door assembly (28) covers an inflatable air bag (12) contained in a reaction canister (24) in a vehicle (16). The deployment door assembly (28) is a part which has a panel portion (30), wall portions (180-188), and mounting portions (54). The panel portion (30) closes an opening (49) in the vehicle (16). The panel portion (30) has a peripheral edge surface (80), and includes a deployment door (32) which is spaced fully from the peripheral edge surface (80). The wall portions (180-188) direct the inflating air bag (12) to move outward from the reaction canister (24) toward the deployment door (32). The wall portions (180-188) surround the deployment door (32) and project inward from the panel portion (30). The mounting portions (54) mount the deployment door assembly (28) on the vehicle (16) at locations spaced from the reaction canister (24). The mounting portions (54) project inward from the panel portion (30) at locations between the wall portions (180-188) and the peripheral edge surface (80).
