Abstract

A vehicle seat includes a backrest, a seat pan, and an airbag having two components placed on sides of the seat. Each component includes an airbag cushion and a strap sewn to the airbag cushion. The strap is fixed to an upper area of the backrest and an anti-submarining hump of the seat pan. The backrest includes a seat cushion and a rigid shell surrounding the seat cushion. Each strap passes between the seat cushion and the shell. The seat includes a seat belt provided with a retractor fixed to the backrest and placed inside a receiving portion delimited by a front casing located in a backrest upper area, the shell covers the front casing, thereby forming a space between them to pass the strap of one of the two components in the backrest upper area, and the shell delimiting the receiving portion to the rear.
