Abstract
A multi-stage ignition type gas generator has a first combustion chamber and a second combustion chamber defined independently from each other, and a third combustion chamber through which a gas generated in the first combustion chamber and the second combustion chamber passes before reaching a gas discharge port. In a partition wall defining the first combustion chamber and the third combustion chamber and a partition wall defining the second combustion chamber and the third combustion chamber, a restriction means, which opens a communicating port communicating a combustion chamber and the third combustion chamber only by gas pressure generated in the combustion chamber defined inside the partition wall, is arranged, and a gas generating agent disposed in the first combustion chamber and a gas generating agent disposed in the second combustion chamber are different in at least one of all gas output and gas output per unit time.
