Abstract
An airbag structure allowing less amount of air to be entered into the front part of the airbag when the airbag inflates. The airbag structure has a membrane which reduces the inflow of air expanded rapidly by high pressure gas in the airbag when the airbag inflates by an impact due to a collision or other sudden accident during driving. Thus, the airbag structure provides an effect of preventing the passengers from being suffocated or being injured by expanding air pressure of the airbag.
