Gas flow distributor for an airbag module

A gas flow distributor for an airbag module for the specific distribution of gas released from a gas generator into an airbag upon inflation of the airbag, said gas flow distributor comprising a flexible sleeve through which the released gas flows upon inflation of the airbag and which comprises at least two sleeve parts out of a flexible material connected to each other by means of a seam, wherein the seam takes up forces which are exerted on the sleeve by the gas flowing through the sleeve, wherein

• an additional releasable connection of the two sleeve parts is provided at least in sections for taking up the forces exerted by the gas on the sleeve,
• the additional connection cooperates with the sleeve for limiting the forces to be taken up by the seam in a way, that said connection is released when gas flows through the sleeve,
• the sleeve comprises a first section and a second section connected thereto in a gas conducting manner,
• the first section of the sleeve runs under an acute angle into the second section of the sleeve, and
• the additional releasable connection connects the two sleeve parts to each other in a transition region of the sleeve at which the first section of the sleeve runs into the second section of the sleeve.
