ABSTRACT:
A mounting arrangement for a vehicle air bag comprises a mounting bracket affixed to a component of the vehicle, a base plate having a mounting portion on which an air bag and an inflator are mounted, and a plurality of fasteners connecting the base plate to the bracket. Plastically deformable structures associated with the fasteners and the base plate are arranged such that the mounting portion of the base plate is displaceable in a direction away from the mounting bracket in response to the forces imposed on the base plate at the end of the development of the air bag.
