A vehicle includes an air bag device for an occupant seated in a rearmost
seat. The air bag device includes an air bag, which is accommodated at
the rear end portion of the roof of the vehicle in a folded state, and an
inflator, which supplies gas to the air bag. The air bag is unfolded
downward to be inflated between the rearmost seat and a rear window
glass. The air bag device has several functions to effectively protect an
occupant seated in the rearmost seat, such as a function to apply a
predetermined tension to the inflated air bag, a function to properly
restrict the thickness of the air bag, and a function to properly control
the unfolding direction of the air bag.
