摘要:
For the acquisition and evaluation of safety-critical measured quantities, for example, of yaw rates (GR) as an input quantity of an automotive vehicle control system, the measured quantities are produced by way of two measuring channels (M1, M2) which are independent of each other. One measuring channel (M1) covers the entire measuring range, and the other measuring channel (M2) is set to a partial measuring range. To identify errors, the output quantities of the measuring channels (M1, M2) are checked for correlation with the measured quantities acquired by the measuring channels and/or for plausibility of the measurement results.

The present invention relates to a system for detecting safety-critical measured quantities, in particular yaw rates or acceleration data in automotive vehicles, comprising at least two independent measuring channels with sensors that are independent of one another and elements for verifying a malfunction or a failure of the measuring channels. The first measuring channel and the additional measuring channel(s) are operated in hot redundancy employing sensors of the similar type but not exactly identical in such a manner that the sensors are operated in parallel and without restriction. This invention also relates to a device consisting of a sealed housing with a plug, and the aforementioned system is accommodated in the sealed housing.

Disclosed is a pressure sensor, especially for measuring pressures exceeding 100 bar, with a diaphragm (1, 1′) that can be deflected and/or deformed as a result of pressurization. It has an enclosed hollow volume (6) that is disposed below the diaphragm and in particular is at least partly filled with a gas or a mixture of gas. A supporting frame (2) for the diaphragm sealingly closes the periphery of the diaphragm relative to a base member (3), and at least one pressure transducer converts the deflection and/or deformation of the diaphragm into at least one electric quantity. It uses a capacitive, piezoresistive or any other principle or at least one strain measuring strip, in which case the pressure sensor is sealingly encapsulated on all sides and has no electric contacts or lines leading to the outside.

In order to be able to perform redundant measurements of rotation rates particularly economically, disclosed herein is a sensor device which includes a dual-axis, first rotation rate sensor element with which rotation rates of rotating motions of the sensor device about a first and a second rotation rate measurement axis can be detected, wherein the first and the second rotation rate measurement axes are oriented orthogonally in relation to one another. The sensor device is defined by the fact that the sensor device includes at least one other rotation rate sensor element with which a rotation rate of a rotating motion of the sensor device about a rotation rate measurement axis, which lies in a plane together with the first and the second rotation rate measurement axes, can be deselected.

摘要:
Micromachined vibratory gyroscope having two or more coplanar movable masses suspended over a planar substrate. Two perpendicular axes (x and y) are defined within the substrate plane, while a third, the z-axis or input axis, is defined to be perpendicular to the substrate plane. The movements of the two masses along the x-axis are coupled through an electrostatic coupling means so that the natural resonant frequency of the in-phase mode and that of the anti-phase mode are separated from each other for the resonances along the x-axis. When the two masses are driven to vibrate along the x-axis in the anti-phase mode and the device experiences rotation about the z-axis, Coriolis forces act differentially on the masses in the Y-direction, causing the two masses to dither in an anti-phase motion along the y-axis. The anti-phase dithering along the y-axis can be sensed directly by a rate sensor to measure the rate of rotation about the z-axis. Alternatively, the anti-phase dithering of the first and second bodies along the y-axis can be transferred to other movable bodies (i.e., rate-sensing masses) whose movement is then sensed to measure the rate of rotation about the z-axis. The sensing bodies are preferably suspended in such manner that, in the absence of Coriolis forces, the x-axis motion of the vibrating masses does not affect the sensing bodies. That inhibits motion of the sensing bodies in response to linear acceleration within the plane of the substrate, but permits those bodies to respond readily to the Coriolis-induced motion about an axis perpendicular to the substrate plane.
