Abstract

A transport assembly comprises a gas generator having an outer housing which has at least one outflow opening arranged such that a thrust force is exerted onto the outer housing during an outflow of generated gas. The transport assembly further comprises a removable transport cover which is detachably fastened to the outer housing and extends around the outflow opening of the outer housing. Further outflow openings are arranged in the transport cover such that the transport assembly as a whole remains neutral with respect to thrust on activation of the gas generator. A plug connection is provided between the transport cover and the outer housing.
