Abstract

The gas generator includes an igniter, a container including a container body and a lid formed relative to the container body and configured to contain a transfer charge and a housing configured to contain the igniter and the container, a predetermined region in the housing adjacent to the lid of the container being filled with a gas generating agent to be burned by a combustion product of the transfer charge burned by actuation of the igniter. The lid includes a frangible section configured to be capable of being ruptured by pressure applied by a combustion product generated by combustion of the transfer charge and a strong connection section configured to be capable of maintaining a connected state with the container body even in a case that pressure is applied by the combustion product.
