1. An assembly group comprising a cap configured to cover a diffusor of a tubular gas generator and a deflector element, wherein the cap is configured to create a space between an inner face of a wall of the cap and the diffusor, wherein the cap comprises an outflow opening for gas generated by the tubular gas generator and the deflector element comprises a discharge portion having at least one discharge opening through which the gas leaves the cap, wherein the deflector element is inserted into the outflow opening such that the discharge portion protrudes laterally outwardly through the outflow opening, projects from the cap, and an edge portion of the deflector element abuts at an edge of the outflow opening on the inner face of the wall of the cap, wherein a rattle protection is provided at the deflector element, the rattle protection being formed by a radial projection on the edge portion which is provided for abutting on an outer circumference of the tubular gas generator and/or is biased to press against the tubular gas generator.
