ABSTRACT:
The gas generator for air bags of the present invention includes a housing made up of first and second shells, each shell having a circular part and an outer wall formed along the periphery of the circular part. Installed in the housing is a gas generating device. Openings are formed in the first shell for establishing communication between a filter chamber in the hosing and an air bag. A partition member defines an annular space in the housing extending from a center tube installed at the center of the housing. A filter chamber is formed between the cylindrical wall portion of the partition member and the outer wall of the first shell in such a way that the filter chamber overlaps the combustion chamber in the axial direction along the outer circumference of the combustion chamber, whereby gases produced by the gas generating device on receiving impacts are introduced axially from the combustion chamber, through the filter chamber and into an air bag to protect a passenger from impacts.
