Abstract
An airbag is formed of first and second main panels joined together at a joining portion to form a chamber, a first inner panel bonded to the first main panel, and a second inner panel bonded to the second main panel. The first and second inner panels are interposed between the first and second main panels, and are joined to each other at a position away from the joining portion of the first and second main panels. The airbag can securely prevent gas leakage at the joining portion of the first and second panels.
