ABSTRACT:
An occupant restraint system includes a box-like container having a base wall and side walls joined to the base wall and a folded inflatable cushion within the container. Tear lines in the form of a groove are formed on the base wall so as to define a pair of tongues forcibly separable from the container and a pair of flaps integrally hinged to the tongues and forcibly separable from the container for movement between a normally closed position and an open position upon inflation and deployment of the cushion. The tongues and flaps are located substantially entirely within the base wall and are separable from the container and movable to the open position so as to permit deployment of the cushion through the base wall.
