摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a time of activation of a restraint system (15, 15') in a vehicle (3), the vehicle comprising a seat belt (9) associated to a seat (5), the restraint system being a reversible restraint system, the method comprising the steps of a) determining a current length (L) of pulled out seat belt (9), b) detecting a collision or an imminent collision involving the vehicle (3), c) predicting a time (T 0 ) when the collision is predicted to affect a user (7) of the seat belt (9), d) activating the reversible restraint system (15, 15') a selectable time period (Δ 1 ) before the time (T 0 ) when the collision is predicted to affect the user (7) of the seat belt (9),
wherein a length of the selectable time period (Δ 1 ) is a function of the determined current length (L) of pulled out seat belt (9). The disclosure further relates to a safety arrangement (1, 1') of a vehicle (3).
摘要:
The present invention provides an airbag module (1) in particular for a front passenger (21, 23) of a vehicle, comprising an inflatable bag (3) having at least a first outer panel and a second outer panel arranged substantially symmetrically to each other with regard to a vertical middle plane (M) of the inflated bag. The airbag is characterised in that the inflatable bag (3) comprises a strap structure (5) substantially located between the first and second outer panels, wherein the strap structure (5) is designed such that the bag is extendable from a first state having a first size to a second state having a second size depending on the size of the respective passenger and/or the kind of impact.
摘要:
A safety arrangement for a vehicle, the arrangement comprising: a control unit; one or more vehicle sensors, the sensors being connected to the control unit so the control unit receives output signals from the sensors; a road detection arrangement to detect a surface or an edge of a road in the vicinity of the vehicle and determine whether the vehicle has left the road and is being driven over a surrounding non-road surface, or is likely to do so; and one or more vehicle safety systems which may be activated by the control unit, wherein: the control unit is configured to process the signals received from the sensors and to determine whether the vehicle is travelling over rough terrain, or is entering a ditch-like feature, or the vehicle is airborne; the control unit is configured to activate the one or more vehicle safety systems if it is determined from the signals received from the sensors that the vehicle is travelling over rough terrain, or is entering a ditch-like feature, or the vehicle is airborne; and signals from the sensors, or one or more quantities derived or calculated from signals from the sensors, are compared against at least one threshold to determine whether to activate the one or more vehicle safety systems, wherein the threshold is set at a first level if it is determined by the road detection arrangement that the vehicle has not left the road, and is not likely to do so, and at a second level if it is determined that the vehicle has left the road, or is likely to do so.
摘要:
A latch assembly for driving a closure panel from a closed panel position to an open panel position. The latch assembly comprises: a latch mechanism having a first latch element for retaining a mating latch component in a latched position and for moving the mating latch component from the latched position to an unlatched position when released, the movement of the first latch element biased towards the unlatched position by a latch biasing element; and an actuation system having: a mechanical energy storage system having a device for storing mechanical potential energy for assisting the latch biasing element in moving the mating latch component from the latched position to the unlatched position; a mechanical advantage system having a plurality of advantage elements for engaging the device, such that movement of the plurality of advantage elements is associated with a trigger force and cooperation of the plurality of advantage elements provides for amplification of the trigger force as an initiating force to release the stored mechanical potential energy; and a trigger system configured to provide the trigger force to release the stored mechanical potential energy.
摘要:
A vehicle is equipped with a distribution board which is provided between a plurality of electric actuators and an auxiliary power supply, said plurality of electric actuators being used for door-related accessories and including a door lock device electric actuator that is appended to a door lock device, and said auxiliary power supply being connected to a main power supply. The vehicle is such that when a shock detection sensor (11) detects a shock at the same time that the voltage applied to the auxiliary power supply (33) by the main power supply (12) drops to a level not higher than a predetermined voltage, a control means (29) for controlling the distribution board (30) brings the door lock device into the unlocked state while the power feed from the auxiliary power supply (33) to the door lock device electric actuator (18) is maintained, said door lock device electric actuator (18) being among door-related electric actuators (13, 14, 15, 17, 18); and that in spite of the above, the power feed from the auxiliary power supply (33) to the remaining door-related electric actuators (13, 14, 15, 17) is forcibly stopped. Due to the above, even if a power supply or a circuit thereof is destroyed due to a collision or the like, burglar-proofness is enhanced while keeping the door locked state releasable.
