ACCELERATION SENSOR AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

An acceleration sensor for measuring an acceleration (b) in more than one coordinate directions (x, y) comprises a mass (12) which is fixed at one end and which is provided with a first electric contact element at a free end. The mass (12) is surrounded by a plurality of second electric contact elements (13 to 20) such that the first electric contact element is deflected into contact with one or two of the second electric contact elements (13-20), when a predetermined acceleration threshold value is exceeded in a given direction (b).
