Gas generator
First Claim
1. A gas generator, comprisinga housing having an inner wall (14) delimiting an igniter chamber (12) peripherally,at least one igniter (16) opening into said igniter chamber (12), anda cap (22) arranged for displacement along said inner wall (14) and delimiting said igniter chamber (12), said cap having a cylindrical peripheral wall (24) and a radially extending cover wall (30),characterized in that said peripheral wall (24) has a first section (26) extending from said cover wall (30) in a displacement direction (R) and a second section (28) extending from said cover wall (30) in a direction opposite thereto,said first and second sections (26, 28) lying against said inner wall (14) and guiding said cap (22) during a displacement thereof.

Abstract
A gas generator includes a housing having an inner wall delimiting an igniter chamber peripherally, and at least one igniter opening into the igniter chamber. The gas generator further includes a cap arranged for displacement along the inner wall and delimiting the igniter chambe, said cap having a cylindrical peripheral wall and a radially extending cover wall. The peripheral wall has a first section extending from the cover wall in displacement direction (R) and a second section extending in a direction opposite thereto. The first and second sections lie against the inner wall and guide the cap during a displacement thereof. The cover wall is turned axially into the interior of the cap.

15. A gas generator, comprising
a housing having an inner wall (14) delimiting an igniter chamber (12) peripherally, at least one igniter (16) opening into said igniter chamber (12), and a cap (22) arranged for displacement along said inner wall (14) and delimiting said igniter chamber (12), said cap having a cylindrical peripheral wall (24) and a radially extending cover wall (30), wherein said peripheral wall (24) has a first section (26) extending from said cover wall (30) in a displacement direction (R) and a second section (28) extending in a direction opposite thereto, said first and second sections (26, 28) lying against said inner wall (14) and guiding said cap (22) during a displacement thereof, wherein said peripheral wall (24) is partially turned into an interior of said cap (22) by plastic axial drawing of said cover wall (30), and is constructed so as to be double-walled in said turned-in region.
- 17. A gas generator comprising a housing having an inner wall (14) delimiting an igniter chamber (12) peripherally, at least one igniter (16) opening into said igniter chamber (12), and a cap (22) arranged for displacement along said inner wall (14) and delimiting said igniter chamber (12), said cap (22) having a cylindrical peripheral wall (24) and a radially extending cover wall (30), wherein said cover wall (30) is turned axially into an interior of said cap (22) so that the cover wall (30) extends for at least half of a height (h) of the cap (22) into the interior of the cap (22), the degree of turning in of the cap (22) defining the volume of the igniter chamber (22).

22. A gas generator comprising:
-
a housing having an inner wall (14) delimiting an igniter chamber (12) peripherally; at least one igniter (16) opening into said igniter chamber (12); and a cap (22) arranged for displacement along said inner wall (14) and delimiting said igniter chamber (12), said cap having a cylindrical peripheral wall (24) and a cover wall (30) connected with one end of the peripheral wall, wherein said cover wall (30) is turned axially into an interior of said cap (22) and the cap (22) is inserted into the igniter chamber (12) so that the cover wall (30) is at least partially positioned between a free end of the peripheral wall (24) and the igniter (16).
