ABSTRACT:
A gas bag (5) for a vehicle occupant protection system, which when inflated is three-dimensional in shape, is folded from a deflated, flattened and spread-out condition. The gas bag (5) has a rear wall with a securing section (SS) featuring an inflation port (20), a front wall section (OS) opposite thereto and a junction section (JS) between the two wall sections. The gas bag (5) is folded into a shape adapted to the interior space of a receiving compartment (RC). The folding of the gas bag (5) is done substantially by rotating the junction section (JS) relative to the securing section (SS).
