<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an occupant restraining device avoiding the operation of an overheat protecting function by stopping sensible warning when a motor is in an overheat state, and certainly restraining an occupant at a critical moment of restraining the occupant. <P>SOLUTION: The occupant restraining device includes a warning means 3 outputting first and second warning signals on the basis of a collision risk with an obstruction in front of a vehicle, a seat belt motor controlling means 4 outputting a control signal so as to wind up a seat belt by first and second motor torque according to the warning signal, a motor 7 winding up the seat belt having an overheat protecting means 8 intercepting the supply of power source when exceeding predetermined temperature, a motor temperature detecting means 9 detecting motor temperature, and a motor overheat determining means 10 making the operation temperature of the overheat protecting means 8 reference, and determining a motor overheat state when the motor temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold value. The seat belt motor controlling means 4 stops the sensible warning by the first motor torque to avoid the operation of the overheat protecting function in the motor overheat state, and certainly restrain the ooccupant at the time of restraining the occupant. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
