All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. An airbag module for a motor vehicle, comprising:
a gas sack that can be inflated with gas to protect an occupant,
a gas generator for generating the gas provided for inflating the gas sack,
an additional cooling device comprising an openable reservoir for storing a coolant, with the reservoir being designed to be opened, so that the coolant for cooling the gas in the gas sack can come into contact with said gas,
wherein the cooling device is integrated into the gas generator, and wherein the temperature of the gas in the gas sack can be influenced by the cooling device irrespective of the time of activation of the gas generator.
2. The airbag module as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gas sack surrounds an interior space of the gas sack.
3. The airbag module as claimed in claim 2, wherein an upper side of the gas generator faces towards the interior space of the gas sack.
4. The airbag module as claimed in claim 3, wherein the cooling device is embedded centrally into an upper side of the gas generator, such that the reservoir of the cooling device is surrounded at least in sections by the gas generator.
5. The airbag module as claimed in claim 3, wherein a recess is provided in the upper side of the gas generator, into which recess the cooling device is completely integrated, so that the reservoir of the cooling device except for the head of the cooling device is surrounded by the gas generator in cross section.
6. The airbag module as claimed in claim 5, wherein the head of the cooling device rests on a boundary region of the upper side of the gas generator delimiting the recess.
7. The airbag module as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cooling device and the gas generator form a unit that is designed rotation symmetric with respect to a main unfolding direction of the gas sack.
8. The airbag module as claimed in claim 1, wherein the coolant is set free through an outflow opening of the reservoir.
9. The airbag module as claimed in claim 8, wherein the outflow opening is arranged in an interior space of the gas sack.
10. The airbag module as claimed in claim 9, wherein the outflow opening of the reservoir faces the interior space of the gas sack along a main unfolding direction of the gas sack.
11. The airbag module as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cooling device comprises a movement generating device that opens the reservoir to release the coolant.
12. The airbag module as claimed in claim 11, wherein the movement generating device opens the reservoir at a predefinable time to release the coolant.
13. The airbag module as claimed in claim 12, wherein the time is calculated by an electronic control unit as a function of at least one parameter that can be sensed by a sensor unit.
14. The airbag module as claimed in claim 11, wherein the movement generating device releases the coolant, to open a closure of an outflow opening of the reservoir, through which the coolant can be released.
15. The airbag module as claimed in claim 14, wherein the movement generating device opens the closure of the outflow opening, to act on the closure with a pressure.
16. The airbag module as claimed in claim 15, wherein the movement generating device generates the pressure pyrotechnically.
