Airbag device
An airbag device includes an airbag, an inflator and an attachment base. The airbag includes a body portion, and an inflow port portion, into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted. The attachment base includes a holding plate portion including a pressing portion and a support portion that are provided at positions displaced around an axial center of the inflator so as to surround a periphery of the inflow port portion into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted. The pressing portion is plastically deformable so as to approach a side of the support portion by being crimped, and the distal end side of the inflator inserted between the pressing portion and the support portion and the inflow port portion are sandwiched between the crimped pressing portion and the support portion, and are held by the attachment base.

2. The airbag device according to claim 1 , wherein
the holding plate portion includes the pressing portion that is provided at the distal end side of the inflator, the support portion that is provided so as to be displaced from the pressing portion in a direction along the axial center of the inflator, and a second pressing portion that is configured to be crimped so as to press against a side of the axial center of the inflator to press the inflator against the side of the support portion and that is provided at a position away from the pressing portion with the support portion therebetween in the direction along the axial center of the inflator.
3. The airbag device according to claim 1 , wherein
the airbag includes a winding portion that is configured to be wound around the inflow port portion into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted so as to press against a side of the inflator and that is provided at the inflow port portion, and
the attachment base or the inflator includes a lock portion that is configured to lock a to-be-locked portion provided at an end of the winding portion so as to maintain a winding state of the winding portion.
4. The airbag device according to claim 1 , wherein
the airbag includes, at an inner peripheral side of the inflow port portion, a flexible sheet member for a check valve that closely adheres to an outer peripheral surface of the inflator by pressure of the inflation gas to flow out so as to prevent the inflation gas discharged from the gas discharge portion of the inflator from flowing out of the inflow port portion.
5. The airbag device according to claim 1 , wherein
the support portion of the holding plate portion includes a bead that protrudes from a surrounding general portion and that is configured to be pressed against the inflow port portion into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted.
6. An airbag device including an airbag configured to inflate by allowing inflation gas to flow therein, an inflator configured to supply the inflation gas to the airbag, and an attachment base configured to hold the airbag and the inflator and configured to be mounted on a mounting part, wherein
the inflator has a substantially columnar shape, and includes, at a distal end side thereof, a gas discharge portion which is configured to discharge the inflation gas,
the airbag includes a body portion which is configured to inflate from a folded state by allowing the inflation gas to flow therein, and a cylindrical inflow port portion which is communicated with the body portion, into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted, and which is configured to allow the inflation gas from the inflator to flow into the body portion,
the attachment base includes a holding plate portion which is configured to allow the folded body portion to be provided at a front surface side thereof to hold the folded body portion, and which is configured to allow the inflow port portion and the inflator inserted into the inflow port portion to be provided at a back surface side thereof to hold the inflow port portion and the inflator, and
the holding plate portion includes a press-fit holding portion having an inner diameter dimension at which the distal end side of the inflator is capable of being press-fitted into the inflow port portion provided at an inner peripheral side of the press-fit holding portion or the inflow port portion is capable of being press-fitted in a state in which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted therein, and at which the inflow port portion into which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted is capable of being held after press-fitting.
7. The airbag device according to claim 6 , wherein
the press-fit holding portion includes, at an inner peripheral side thereof, a plurality of beads that protrude from a surrounding general portion and that are configured to be pressed against an outer peripheral surface side of the inflow port portion in the state in which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted therein.
8. The airbag device according to claim 6 , wherein
the holding plate portion is formed of sheet metal, and includes, at the back surface side thereof and adjacent to the press-fit holding portion, a concave part configured to house substantially halves of the inflow port portion in the state in which the distal end side of the inflator is inserted therein and the inflator in a direction orthogonal to an axis, and
the press-fit holding portion includes halved annular bodies that are divided into a concave part side and a side covering the concave part around an axial center of the inflator, and the two halved annular bodies are provided at positions displaced along the axial center of the inflator.
