RETENTION STRUCTURE FOR A FLANGE BASED INFLATOR OF AN AIRBAG RESTRAINT ASSEMBLY ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An inflator, which is shorter than a reaction can of an airbag restraint assembly and which has a flanged base at one end thereof, is mounted in the reaction can. The mounting structure for the flange based inflator has a generally circular open cylindrical shape, with its sidewall terminated on one end in a mounting flange and terminating in an inwardly tapered conical flange at the other end. The mounting structure is located in an access opening in an end wall of the reaction can, with the inwardly tapered conical flange frictionally engaging and holding the flanged base of the inflator in the reaction can by biased radially compressive force, thereby providing essentially rattle- and squeak-free retention of the flange based inflator in the reaction can in an appropriately positioned and centered manner.
