<p>A system for controlling, coordinating and optimizing the operation of primary and supplemental restraints in vehicle occupant safety systems is described. This system includes an improved programmable locking retractor (108), a variety of sensors (204, 205, 206, 207), a control module (201) and a high 'g' override capability (603). The improved programmable locking retractor employs a sensor in communication with control module (201), which in turn is in communication with supplemental restraints, such as air bags (604), pretensioners (605) and curtains (607). The control module (201) is adapted to make deployment decisions based on sensor inputs and to provide such restraint features as emergency locking, automatic locking, lock dwell, sensor tuning, and built-in diagnostics.</p> |
