AIR BAG LID REINFORCING MEMBER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

An airbag lid reinforcing member includes a door part, a flange part, a leg part and a hinge member. The flange part surrounds an outer periphery of the door part. The leg part is arranged on the flange part. An inside surface of the leg part defines support ribs supporting the hinge member. The support ribs are arranged with a gap in a width direction of the leg part. A portion of the hinge member is buried in the flange part. In a region of the hinge member between a tip of each of the support ribs and an end surface of the flange part, at least an upper part in a thickness direction of the hinge member is exposed from the support ribs. A portion of the hinge member positioned between adjacent ones of the support ribs is exposed from the support ribs and the flange part.
