Device for operating vehicle, has part mass which is accelerated in detected collision or in collision by acceleration unit counter to action direction of force transmission resulting from collision

摘要

The device has a part mass (2) which is accelerated in a detected collision or in a collision by an acceleration unit (5) counter to an action direction of a force transmission resulting from the collision. The acceleration unit has a deployable element (5.1) which is pyrotechnically deployable and is formed from a plastic or elastically deformable material. An independent claim is included for a method for operating a vehicle.
