A cold gas generator has a pressure chamber filled with a compressed gas, closed by a membrane fastened to a carrier wall by a mounting edge. An external ignition unit generates a hot gas to destroy the membrane, and thus release the compressed gas. When t...

The hybrid gas generator has an elongated cylindrical outer housing and a pressure chamber (12) filled with pressure gas, closed by a face-side membrane (14). A pyrotechnic drive charge (38) for opening the membrane is located in a housing (28) outside the...

The hybrid gas generator has a chamber (10) with a frangible membrane (22) to close it. A pyrotechnic charge (12) destroys the membrane when fired. A nozzle between the charge and membrane has a through opening (40,40') to direct the charge combustion prod...

The gas generator is designed so that the molded body (5) is reinforced by supporting braiding or mesh (21) surrounded by fuel. The braiding is stable against tension, also against pressure.
