摘要:
There is provided a passive safety device which can prevent an occupant from moving when an acceleration that causes the occupant to move in a vehicle is working on the occupant, and which can improve the ride comfort. A passive safety device of the present invention comprises an acceleration detecting unit that detects an acceleration of a vehicle, a seat adjusting unit that expands a seat side of a seat in order to prevent an occupant sitting down the seat from moving, a safety belt adjusting unit that controls tension of a safety belt worn by the occupant, and a control unit that controls an expansion of the seat side and/or the tension of the safety belt through the seat adjusting unit and the safety belt adjusting unit, based on the detected acceleration of the vehicle.

A seatbelt device for a vehicle includes a belt reel for winding a belt for restraining a target object, a motor for driving the rotation of the reel, and a control unit. The control unit determines whether the target object to be restrained is a child seat or a vehicle occupant on the basis of a winding position of the belt while no electricity is being supplied to the motor and the winding position of the belt when electricity is being supplied to the motor.

A vehicle seatbelt apparatus includes a inhibiting section for inhibiting a belt-reel driving motor from being driven when it determines, on the basis of an output signal from a rotational position detecting unit associated with a belt reel, that variation in the rotational position of the belt reel, which is less than or equal to a predetermined value, has occurred, on condition that a door opened/closed state detecting units detects that a vehicle door has shifted from a closed state to an opened state.

A vehicle seatbelt apparatus includes a power supply voltage fluctuation detecting section incorporated in a control device for detecting fluctuations of power supply voltage occurring when an engine cranking operation is being performed. The control device changes drive mode of the motor when such fluctuations of the power supply voltage are detected by the power supply voltage fluctuation detecting section.

A vehicle seat-belt apparatus including: a forward monitoring device which conducts monitoring to the front of a vehicle; an avoidance assist device which supports a predetermined avoidance operation in order to avoid an obstacle when it is determined that there is an obstacle to be avoided based on a detection result of the forward monitoring device; a motor which conducts a rotary driving of a belt reel on which a belt is wound; and a control device which controls the motor, wherein the control device conducts a drive control of the motor according to a state of support of the avoidance operation by the avoidance assist device.
摘要:
This seatbelt apparatus includes: a belt reel around which a belt is wound; a motor which rotationally drives the belt reel; a transmitting device which transmits a driving power between the belt reel and the motor; a controller which drives the motor while controlling an electricity to be supplied to the motor; a rotation-detection device which detects a rotation status of the belt reel. The rotation-detection device outputs, in accordance with a rotation of the belt reel, a plurality of outputs including signals indicating a first state in which a current consumption by the rotation-detection device is larger than a predetermined value, and a second state in which the current consumption by the rotation-detection device is smaller than the predetermined value. The controller executes a first motor-driving process in which the motor is driven based on an output from the rotation-detection device until reaching the second state.

A seat belt apparatus includes a belt reel having a belt wound thereon, a motor for driving the reel to take up the belt; a control section for adjusting an amount of electric current supply to the motor to thereby control a belt-taking-up driving force of the motor, a current detection section for detecting the current supplied to the motor, and a rotation detection section for detecting a rotational position of the reel. The control section includes a constant current control section for executing a constant current control mode so that the current supply to the motor takes a target value, and a target current supply value change section for changing the target value when a detection signal from the rotation detection section has satisfied a predetermined condition in the constant current control mode.

A vehicle seat belt device includes an electric motor for retracting a loose portion of a seat belt during an emergency in a vehicle, and a control unit for controlling the electric motor. The control unit causes the electric motor to continuously rotate only in a belt retraction direction and repeatedly alternate between low-speed rotation and high-speed rotation when an emergency condition of the vehicle is predicted. The belt tension is varied by the repeated changing of the rotational speed between high speed and low speed, and the seat belt therefore vibrates. An occupant can be alerted to a predicted emergency by this vibration.
