The invention claimed is:

1. A webbing device comprising:
a webbing that is applied to a passenger in a state in which, at one side in a thickness direction of the webbing, the webbing is interfered with by one side portion of at least one of a seat of a vehicle or the passenger seated in the seat;
a supporting member that is disposed at a side of another side portion of the seat or the passenger seated in the seat, and that supports another side in the thickness direction of the webbing;
a supplying portion that is disposed at the other side of the webbing at a position at which the one side portion of the at least one of the seat or the passenger interferes with the webbing, and that is disposed at the one side of the webbing at a supporting position at which the webbing is supported by the supporting member, a fluid being supplied to an interior of the supplying portion; and
a bag body that is provided at the webbing, and that has an interior to which fluid, that has been supplied to the interior of the supplying portion, is supplied, and that is inflated.

2. The webbing device of claim 1 , wherein the bag body is provided at the one side and the other side of the webbing, and the supplying portion is provided at the bag body.

3. The webbing device of claim 1 , wherein the supplying portion is separate from the bag body.

4. The webbing device of claim 2 , wherein the supplying portion is separate from the bag body.

5. The webbing device of claim 1 , wherein the webbing is a lap portion of the webbing, the supplying portion is disposed on the lap portion of the webbing, and wherein the webbing is interfered with by one side portion of at least one of a lower seat cushion of a vehicle or the lap of the passenger seated in the seat.
