A pyrotechnic actuator for an active bonnet is provided that includes, but is not limited to a cylinder, a piston which can be displaced in the cylinder under the influence of a propellant gas and a first gas generator for producing the propellant gas. The actuator includes, but is not limited to at least one further gas generator, which can be ignited independently of the first gas generator.

1. A pyrotechnic actuator, comprising: a cylinder having a first chamber and a second chamber that are separated by a central region;a piston that is configured to be displaced, under the influence of a propellant gas, through the central region between a first position in the first chamber and a second position in the second chamber, wherein the piston includes openings;a first gas generator that is configured to be ignited to generate propellant gas; andwherein the first chamber is configured to be charged with the propellant gas to displace the piston, and wherein the second chamber is configured to be charged with the propellant gas that passes from the first chamber through the openings. 2. A pyrotechnic actuator, comprising: a cylinder having a first chamber and a second chamber that are separated by a central region;a piston on either side of the cylinder that is configured to be displaced between a first position in the first chamber and a second position in the second chamber, wherein the piston comprises a central piece connected to a piston rod and an apron surrounding the central piece and axially displaceable thereon; anda first gas generator for producing a propellant gas, wherein both the first chamber and the second chamber are configured to be charged with the propellant gas such that the piston is configured to move through the central region between the first position and the second position. 3. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the second chamber is configured to be charged with the propellant gas after the charging the first chamber. 4. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the second chamber is configured to be charged with the propellant gas through the first chamber. 5. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein an inlet passage for propellant gas into the second chamber is blocked when the piston is in a rest position of the piston and is open when the piston is deflected from the rest position. 6. The actuator according to claim 5, wherein the inlet passage is blocked when the piston is in an end position opposite to the rest position. 7. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the inside width of the cylinder in a central region of the cylinder is greater than in at least one of its end regions. 8. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the axial displaceability of the apron against the central piece is limited in both directions by stops. 9. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the apron has the local through openings. 10. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the spacing of the through openings from one end of the apron is greater than the length of the central region. 11. The actuator according to claim 2, wherein the second chamber communicates with the surroundings by means of a throttle point. 12. A pyrotechnic actuator, comprising: a cylinder having a first chamber and a second chamber that are separated by a central region and that are both configured to be charged by a propellant gas;a piston on either side of the cylinder that is configured to be displaced between a first position in the first chamber and a second position in the second chamber, wherein the piston includes openings; anda first gas generator for producing a propellant gas, wherein both the first chamber and the second chamber are configured to be charged with the propellant gas such that the piston is configured to move through the central region between the first position and the second position, and wherein the second chamber is configured to be charged with the propellant gas that passes from the first chamber through the openings. 13. A pyrotechnic actuator, comprising: a cylinder having a first chamber and a second chamber;a piston on either side of the cylinder that is configured to be displaced in the cylinder under the influence of the propellant gas, wherein the piston comprises a central piece connected to a piston rod and an apron surrounding the central piece and axially displaceable thereon; anda first gas generator for producing a propellant gas, wherein both the first chamber and the second chamber are configured to be charged with the propellant gas. 14. The actuator according to claim 1, further comprising: a second gas generator that is configured to be ignited independently of the first gas generator to generate propellant gas after the first gas generator has generated propellant gas. 15. The actuator according to claim 14, wherein the cylinder further comprises a flange with an inlet opening, and further comprising: a carrier that is fastened to the flange of cylinder and that comprises chambers for holding the first and second gas generators, and wherein each of the first and second gas generators is coupled to the inlet opening to provide propellant gas to the cylinder. 16. The actuator according to claim 14, further comprising: an electronic ignition circuit that is configured to ignite the first and second gas generators individually and sequentially in response to external ignition commands.
