First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An occupant protection device comprising: a table that is provided at a position that faces a seat back; an air bag that is provided to the table; and a support mechanism configured to support the table in a state where a part of or all of the table is rotatable about a rotation axis that is approximately parallel to a width direction, wherein the part of or all of the table is configured to rotate due to force generated when the air bag is deployed, and turn a reaction force surface of the table with respect to the air bag toward an occupant who is seated on a front side of the seat back, wherein the reaction force surface is a back side of the table that faces downward when the air bag is not deployed, wherein the air bag is configured to be deployed from a part of the back side of the table that is located more toward the seat back side than a center of the back side of the table in a front-rear direction, and wherein the support mechanism includes the rotation axis of the entire table at a front end of the table. 2. The occupant protection device according to claim 1 , wherein: a second table is provided on a back side of the table and supports the table using the rotation axis; the reaction force surface is the back side of the table that faces a front side of the second table when the air bag is not deployed; and the air bag is configured to be deployed from between the table and the second table.
