摘要:
In a method for triggering a passenger protection arrangement for a vehicle, a crash type is detected with the aid of at least one structure-borne noise signal, and the triggering takes place as a function of the crash type. For the crash type recognition, the structure-borne noise signal is evaluated in a predefined time period with regard to a change in amplitude.

A method to determine at least one triggering parameter of personal protection device of a vehicle using pattern signal curves of a possible signal of a sensor for a physical variable. The pattern signal curves replicating a curve over time of the physical variable upon impact of an object on the vehicle at a different location on the vehicle and/or upon impact of the object on the vehicle at a different angle. A sensor signal is read which represents the physical variable measured by a sensor. Values of a curve over time of the sensor signal are compared to values of the at least two pattern signal curves, that pattern signal curve being selected which, in at least one time segment of the pattern signal curve or one scaled form of the pattern signal curve has a lower deviation from the curve over time of the sensor signal.

A method for checking a sensor signal suitable for actuating a passenger protection arrangement of a vehicle. The method includes a step of carrying out a comparison between the sensor signal and at least one reference signal, repeatedly within a predetermined time interval, in order to obtain a plurality of comparison results, and a step of evaluating the sensor signal based on the plurality of comparison results, in order to detect a fault in the sensor signal.

In occupant protection systems having a large number of sensors and control modules for triggering occupant protection devices, the amount of wiring is significantly increased if they are to be communicatively connected to a central unit. For this reason, bus systems have already been suggested for the control modules for triggering occupant protection devices. In order to further reduce in the wiring, sensors are at least partially integrated into a bus system with additional control modules that are allocated to these sensors. Within the context of a diagnosis process of interrogation and response, which triggers a function test of the control modules for triggering the occupant protection devices, an actual sensor value is sent to the bus system from the control modules of the sensors as a diagnosis response. This response is processed by the central unit and/or the other control modules.

A bus system with a master station and a plurality of slave stations is described. The slave stations have a connecting switch, with the downstream slave stations having no electric contact with the master station when the connecting switch of a first slave station is opened. In this phase, the first slave station is initialized. Before closing the connecting switch, a test switch is closed, with the current flow being limited by a current limiter. It is thus possible to check on whether the downstream slave station has a short circuit.

In a method for controlling the release of a passenger restraint system in a vehicle, an acceleration signal is measured and integrated with respect to time to obtain a velocity signal. A release threshold value for the velocity signal is determined. If the velocity signal then falls below the release threshold value, thus indicating a vehicle collision, the passenger restraint system is released. The release threshold value is controlled depending on the type of accident situation and upon the operating parameters of the vehicle to increase the release sensitivity of the passenger restraint system. For example, the release threshold value is adjusted based on the value of the velocity signal. If the velocity signal decreases in value, then the release threshold is lowered to a more sensitive value.

A device for the protection of occupants of a vehicle comprises at least one acceleration sensor (10), an electronic device (20) for evaluating the output signal of the sensor (10), and a protective device (30) for protecting the occupants of the vehicle. The device makes it possible to activate in due time the protective device (30) by the electronic device (20) in the manner that estimated values for the future displacement of the occupant of the vehicle and/or the occupant's relative speed with respect to the passenger compartment are estimated in advance and compared with presettable limit values.

In an electronic safety device for vehicle occupants including an acceleration-sensitive sensor, a control unit, and a plurality of inertial restraining devices with associated output stages, a reliable operating mode is guaranteed for the safety device by storing characteristic fault conditions, together with control strategies compensating for these fault conditions. In the event of a fault, the safety device applies the respective, assigned control strategy to activate the restraining devices.
摘要:
A safety device for vehicle occupants has an operational voltage source, typically the vehicle's battery, and a storage device for electrical energy, typically a capacitor. Several tripping devices, typically ignition tablets, are coupled to the storage device and/or the operational voltage source, for actuating inertial restraining devices, such as airbags, belt tighteners or the like. If the storage device fails, each tripping device is connected for a specified period of time to the operational voltage source by a respective switch. Each switch is triggered by an evaluating device. Therefore, if the storage device fails, as long as the operational voltage source is connected to the safety device, each tripping device and, therefore, inertial restraining device can be actuated.

In a safety device for vehicle occupants with acceleration-sensitive sensors and with processing circuits for the sensors summing and integrating devices as well as a comparator device for comparing the summation and integration values are provided. The comparator device controls a warning device as soon as the comparison value exceeds a presettable limit value.
