Igniter and gas generator having the same

Abstract

Provided is a squib for attaining a normal ignition of gas generants even when an adhesion state of the plug with enhancers is released by vibration or impact and a gas generator having the squib. A squib including a plug 13, two or more electrode pins 14 which pass through the plug 13 and respectively provided with a head 25, a bridge wire 16 connecting spaces between the respective heads 25 on at least two electrode pins 14 among the electrode pins 14, and ignition charge 10 which are ignited by the bridge wire 16 electrified via the electrode pins 14, wherein the plug 13 is a cured composition of thermosetting resins, the electrode pin 14 in which the bridge wire 16 is connected to the head 25 passes through the plug 13, with a predetermined distance A kept between the head 25 and the plug 13, and at least the head 25 and the bridge wire 16 are enclosed by the ignition charge 10, which is a solid, and fixed to the plug 13.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
