  "textContent": "A glove box door generates a reaction force corresponding to the body build of an occupant. A knee airbag (46) is provided to the lower part (20B) of a glove box door (20), and an airbag door (30) provided to the glove box door (20) opens in both upward and downward directions when the knee airbag (46) expands. As the knee airbag (46) expands, the rigidity of the lower part (20B) of the glove box door (20) decreases, and this causes a relatively small reaction force, which corresponds to a relatively small load generated when the knees of (72) of an occupant having a relatively small body build make contact with the lower part (20B), to be generated on the lower part (20B) of the glove box door (20). On the other hand, because the knee airbag (46) is not provided to the upper part (20A) of the glove box door (20), the upper part (20A) can generate a relatively large reaction force which corresponds to a relatively large load generated when the knees (70) of an occupant having a relatively large body build make contact with the upper part (20A) via the knee airbag (46).",
