An air-bag for a motor vehicle is formed from first and second superposed layers of fabric, each woven from a plurality of yarns. The layers of fabric are connected to each other at least partially through interweaving of the yarns of the two layers with each other. The air-bag includes at least one inflatable region, in which the two layers of fabric are substantially not connected to each other, and at least one non-inflatable region. There is a first number of crossing points of yarns that form the one layer of fabric, and there is a second number of connections between the two layers, wherein at each connection a yarn of the layer of fabric extends across to the other layer and passes over the far side of the a yarn of the other layer, and wherein the second number is no more than 0.0033 times the first number.

1. An air-bag for a motor vehicle comprising: first and second layers of fabric, the first and second layers being superimposed, each of the first and second layers being woven from a plurality of yarns, the first and second layers of fabric being connected to each other at least partially through interweaving of the yarns of the first and second layers with each other;at least one inflatable region, in which the first and second layers of fabric are substantially not connected to each other, so that gas can be introduced into a space between the first and second layers to inflate the inflatable region; andat least one non-inflatable region, the non-inflatable region including an area over which, for one of the first and second layers of fabric, there is a first number of crossing points of yarns that form the one of the first and second layers of fabric, and there is a second number of connections between the first and second layers, wherein at each connection a yarn of the one layer of fabric extends across to the other layer and passes over a far side of the a yarn of the other layer, and wherein the second number is no more than 0.0033 times the first number. 2. The air-bag according to claim 1, wherein the second number is no less than 0.00040 times the first number. 3. The air-bag according to claim 1, wherein the second number is between around 0.00055 and around 0.0015 times the first number. 4. The air-bag according to claim 3, wherein the second number is around 0.00080 times the first number. 5. An air-bag for a motor vehicle comprising: first and second layers of fabric, the first and second layers being superimposed, each of the first and second layers being woven from a first plurality of yarns and a second plurality of yarns, the yarns of the first plurality of yarns being arranged substantially perpendicular to the yarns of the second plurality of yarns, the first and second layers of fabric being connected to each other at least partially through interweaving of the yarns of the first and second layers with each other;at least one inflatable region, in which the first and second layers of fabric are substantially not connected to each other, so that gas can be introduced into a space between the first and second layers to inflate the inflatable region; andat least one non-inflatable region, the non-inflatable region having an area defined by 180 yarns of the first plurality of yarns and 152 yarns of the second plurality of yarns, and wherein within the area there are no more than 90 connections between the first and second layers, wherein at each connection a yarn of one of the first and second layers of fabric extends across to the other of the first and second layers and passes over a far side of a yarn of the other layer. 6. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein within the area there are no fewer than 11 connections between the two layers. 7. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein within the area there are between around 15 and around 40 connections between the two layers. 8. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein within the area there are around 22 connections between the two layers. 9. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein the non-inflatable region is not connected to receive compressed gas when the air-bag is inflated. 10. The air-bag according to claim 9, wherein the air-bag further comprises one or more gas inlets through which gas is delivered to an interior of the air-bag when the air-bag is inflated, and wherein there is no gas passageway connecting the non-inflatable region with any of the gas inlets. 11. The air-bag according to claim 5, further comprising one or more seam regions located between an inflatable region of the air-bag and the non-inflatable region, the first and second layers being connected together over the seam regions so that gas within the interior of the inflatable region cannot pass through the seam region to reach the interior of the non-inflatable region. 12. The air-bag according to claim 5 wherein, one of the first and second layers is formed from interwoven warp and weft yarns, wherein the warp and weft yarns are substantially perpendicular to each other. 13. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein the air-bag is a one-piece woven (OPW) air-bag. 14. The air-bag according to claim 5, in combination with an air-bag module. 15. The air-bag of claim 14, in combination with the air-bag module of claim 14 and in further combination with a vehicle. 16. The air-bag according to claim 5, wherein the air-bag is an inflatable curtain (IC) air-bag.
