An ejection device (100) for a
gas generator, the ejection device (100) for ejecting a
combustion product, comprising: a
detonator (101) with an ignition charge and an ignition area (102) designed to burn the ignition charge; a pyrotechnic device (121) arranged to be burned by burning the ignition charge; a cup (104) made of
metal, wherein the cup (104) has a base (107) and a
peripheral wall (105), wherein the bottom surface (107) is arranged opposite the ignition area (102), the
peripheral wall (105) adjoins a
peripheral edge of the bottom surface (107) and is arranged to surround the ignition area (102), wherein the cup (104) further comprises a receiving space (120) which is defined by the peripheral wall (105) and the floor area (107) is formed and receives the pyrotechnic agent (121), wherein the bottom surface (107) of the cup (104) contains a through-hole (108) through which the receiving chamber (120) and an exterior area of the cup (104) are connected, wherein the through-hole (108) is formed by several peripheral through-hole edges (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d), and the adjacent peripheral through-hole edges (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d) are connected to each other at a predetermined connection point, the through-bore (108) contains a narrow part (115) in which the width of the through-bore (108), formed by each of parts of the two peripheral through-bore edges (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d) of the several peripheral through-bore edges (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d), gradually decreases with increasing distance from a center of the bottom surface (107) to the peripheral edge of the bottom surface (107), and the narrow part (115) is closer to the peripheral edge of the bottom surface (107) than a non-narrow part (125) formed by each of the other parts of the two peripheral through-bore edges (108a, 108b, 108c, 108d), and the narrow part (115) is a predetermined part in which stress due to the emission of the
combustion product is concentrated, and the bottom surface (107) is designed to be split starting from the narrow part (115), and the peripheral wall (105) is designed to be split.
