Airbag
First Claim
1. An airbag to be inflated between two seats arranged in a vehicle width direction, the airbag comprising:
- an upper surface; and
a bottom surface,wherein in an inflated state, the upper surface is wider than the bottom surface, the upper surface reaches a ceiling, and the bottom surface reaches a console provided between two seat cushions of the seats, andwherein the upper surface and the bottom surface have a high surface friction coefficient so as to suppress a horizontal movement of the airbag in the inflated state.

Abstract
At the inflation thereof, an airbag (10) has a three-dimensional shape composed of a front face (11), a back face (12), left and right side faces (13L, 13R), a ceiling face (14), and a bottom face (15). The front face (11) and the back face (12) have a trapezoidal shape in which the upper bottom is wider than the lower bottom. The upper edge of the front face (11) is formed to be wider than the upper edge of the back face (12). At a side collision, the airbag (10) inflates between seats (20L, 20R) so that the airbag face opposed to an occupant (P) falls to the occupant side. This can allow, when the occupant (P) moves to the collision side, the shoulder of the occupant to strike the airbag while simultaneously or substantially simultaneously allowing the head to strike the airbag. An airbag can be provided that blocks, at a side collision, the move due to the impact of the side collision of the occupant in the lateral direction.
