ABSTRACT:
An air bag with an adjustable gas outlet port is disclosed. The cross-section of the gas outlet port is limited to a maximum value. The size of the gas outlet port determines a flow cross-section and thus a maximum possible gas outlet rate, which is thus limited to a predeterminable value. The value of the gas outlet cross-section is not altered during the restraint action. The value of the gas outlet cross-section is adjusted optimally to a respective occupant already before the air bag is inflated.
