A pendulum-type accelerometer for electrically actuated braking systems has a pendulum (10) which comprises a sandwich of two outer metal leaves (10a, 10c) and a central elastomeric layer (10b) bonded between them. Only one of the metal leaves is secured, by adhesive 70, to a supporting structure so that damped flexure of the sandwich can occur freely. The accelerator comprises a unitarily moulded base (26), living hinge (32) and support arms (14,16) and a cross-beam to which the pendulum is secured. Means are provided for adjusting and retaining the attitude of pendulum relative to the base by movement of the support arms about the hinge. |
