Claim 21:
22. An airbag inflator comprising:
a lower pressure vessel supporting a hermetically sealed initiator assembly;
an upper pressure vessel engaging the lower pressure vessel, the upper pressure vessel including an exit orifice sealed with a rupturable membrane;
an inert stored gas mixture at pressures at least fifty times greater than atmospheric pressure contained within the upper and lower pressure vessels;
a booster can with directional vents that confines outwards flow to an angular quadrant, the booster can centrally mounted in the lower pressure vessel and secured to the initiator assembly;
a main energetics canister secured over the booster can such that the main energetics canister is positioned radially between the lower pressure vessel and the booster can;
an internal energetics canister located inside the main energetics canister and positioned between the main energetics canister and the booster can, the internal energetics canister enclosing an angular region inside the main energetics canister;
an energetics cover enclosing a circumferential space between the booster can and the main energetics canister;
a flow diverter closing the booster can and including inlet vent openings downstream of the energetics cover; and
a manifold secured over the upper pressure vessel.
