PCT No. PCT/DE98/02725 Sec. 371 Date May 6, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date May 6, 1999 PCT Filed Sep. 15, 1998 PCT Pub. No. WO99/17963 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 15, 1999To assure that the safety device is triggered at the right time in the event of a lateral collision of the vehicle with a curb, a first comparing device (1) compares a rotation rate ( omega x) measured relative to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, or a variable derived from this rotation rate, with a rotation rate threshold value. A second comparing device (2) compares an acceleration (ay), measured in the direction of the transverse axis of the vehicle, with a lateral acceleration threshold value. If both threshold comparing device (1, 2) simultaneously signal that their threshold values are being exceeded, a trigger signal (as1) for the safety device is output. |
