Ermittlung der Spitzenlasterfassung zum Auslösen von lastbegrenzenden Rückhaltevorrichtungen

摘要

A method of operating a load limiting restraint system including the steps of receiving an acceleration value and also receiving a signal indicative of an occupant size. The signal received of occupant size is combined with the acceleration value to predict a load on the occupant and the restraint system. If the predicted load exceeds a predicted load value then the load limiting device is actuated to gradually reduce and selectively release the seatbelt.
