Auslösevorrichtung für eine Sicherheitsvorrichtung

摘要

A triggering device for a safety apparatus includes first and second deceleration detecting sensors located within first and second doors of a vehicle respectively or located at positions near the first and second doors respectively. Each of the first and second deceleration detecting sensors is operative for detecting a deceleration. A first signal processing section includes first and second signal processors for processing a detection signal of the first deceleration detecting sensor, and for implementing signal processing with two different processing levels respectively. A second signal processing section includes third and fourth signal processors for processing a detection signal of the second deceleration detecting sensor, and for implementing signal processing with two different processing levels respectively. A first safety device located at the first door is operative for protecting an occupant in the vehicle. A second safety device located at the second door is operative for protecting an occupant in the vehicle. First and second trigger components are operative for triggering the first and second safety devices respectively. One of the first and second trigger components is controlled to trigger one of the first and second safety devices on the basis of results of the signal processing by the first signal processor and the fourth signal processor. The other of the first and second trigger components is controlled to trigger the other of the first and second safety devices on the basis of results of the signal processing by the second signal processor and the third signal processor.
