ABSTRACT:
An occupant restraint system includes a folded cushion having an upper wall portion and a reaction member which is pocketed or sealed against the upper wall portion by a sheet of flexible material having an inner portion covering the reaction member and an outer peripheral portion which is secured to the upper wall portion. The reaction member is mounted to the support of the system by a flexible strap and has a sharpened edge. During a subsequent stage of deployment of the cushion, the sharpened edge of the reaction member severs the peripheral portion of the sheet of flexible material from the inner portion thereof so that the peripheral portion and the upper wall of the cushion can move normal to or toward the occupant.
