Occupant protection device
An occupant protection device includes a seatbelt, an inflator, an airbag and a tether. The seatbelt has a lap belt portion that restrains a waist portion of an occupant. The inflator discharges an inflating gas. The airbag is provided in the lap belt portion, and includes a bag main body portion, which receives the occupant by inflating owing to the inflating gas being supplied, and a conduit portion, which is connected to the inflator, guides the inflating gas discharged from the inflator to the bag main body portion, and causes the inflating gas to flow into the bag main body The tether links the conduit portion and a side wall portion, of a left side wall portion and a right side wall portion of the bag main body portion when inflation is completed, on a side separated from the inflator in a left-right direction.
