GAS GENERATOR, AIRBAG MODULE, VEHICLE SAFETY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PURIFYING A PYROTECHNICALLY PRODUCED GAS

The invention relates to a gas generator (), particularly a pyrotechnical tube gas generator, with an axial longitudinal direction (L), comprising an ignition unit (), a combustion chamber () axially mounted downstream from the ignition unit () and comprising a combustion chamber bottom () forming a combustion chamber outlet (), and a filter chamber () that is axially mounted downstream of the combustion chamber (). According to the invention, at least one guiding sleeve () and a front-side baffle plate () are formed in the filter chamber, a first end () of the guiding sleeve (), on the side of the combustion chamber, being axially mounted downstream from the combustion chamber bottom (), and a second end () of the guiding sleeve () being associated with the baffle plate (), a first deflection section being formed on the baffle plate () and the guiding sleeve () which allows a gas flow to an outer side of the guiding sleeve () into an annular first discharge chamber ().
