摘要： An apparatus (10) for restraining an occupant during a side impact of a vehicle with an object includes an air bag (20) mounted in a vehicle door (22) adjacent to the occupant. The door (22) includes an outside panel (26) and an inside panel (28) spaced from the outside panel (26). An accelerometer (50) for measuring sideways acceleration of the vehicle is mounted to the inside panel (28) of the door (22). The output signal of the accelerometer has a value functionally related to the acceleration of the vehicle in a direction substantially perpendicular to the side of the vehicle. A controller (54, 56, 62, 66) determines the sideways velocity from the accelerometer output signal and deploys the air bag (20) if the velocity exceeds a predetermined value within a predetermined time period. Reinforcement members (310, 312, 314) enhance communication of the sideways acceleration to the accelerometer.

摘要： An apparatus for controlling an occupant restraint system, such as an air bag (102), includes position sensors (80, 84, 86) for sensing position of an occupant and a weight sensor (70) for sensing weight of the occupant. Both the position sensors (80, 84, 86) and the weight sensor (70) are connected to a controller (24). A seat position sensor (30), a seat back incline sensor (36), and a belt payout sensor (64) are also used to determine occupant weight and position. A vent valve (120) is connected to the reaction can (103) of the air bag (102) and is controlled by the controller (24). The controller (24) establishes an occupant weight range from the weight sensors and an occupant position range from the position sensors. The controller (24) selects one of a plurality of discrete control zones dependant upon both the sensed occupant position range and the sensed occupant weight range. The controller (24) then provides a regulating signal to the vent valve (120) based on the selected one of the discrete control zones.

摘要： An apparatus tests an actuatable occupant restraint system for a vehicle. The restraint system has an actuatable occupant restraint device and a crash sensor for outputting a signal having an identifiable electrical characteristic indicative of a specific type of vehicle crash condition. The restraint system also has a processing circuit connected to the crash sensor for providing an actuation signal to the occupant restraint device when the crash sensor signal indicates an occurrence of a predetermined type of vehicle crash condition. The test apparatus comprises a memory device connected to the processing circuit for storing a plurality of simulated crash sensor signals. Each stored simulated crash sensor signal is indicative of a predetermined type of vehicle crash condition. A disabling circuit is connected to the output of the processing circuit for disabling electrical communication between the output of the processing circuit and the actuatable restraint device. A controller is connected to the memory device, the disabling circuit, and the output of the processing circuit for controlling the disabling of the output from the processing circuit, applying simulated stored signals to the processing circuit, monitoring the output of the processing circuit when a simulated stored signal is applied to the processing circuit, and determining if the output signal from the processing circuit correctly responds to such applied simulated crash signal. A warning indicator is connected to the controller. The controller actuates the warning indicator when the controller determines the processing circuit has not properly responded to an applied simulated crash signal from the memory device.

摘要： A golf swing brace which regulates elbow flexing in a manner which is responsive to the golfer's swing so that elbow flexing is prevented before and during golf ball addressment, but is freely permitted thereafter, thus truly simulating for the golfer-in-training proper swing technique. The golf swing brace consists of an upper arm brace and a forearm brace, each mutually pivotally connected together at a pivot. Arm bands attach the upper arm and forearm braces to the respective portions of the golfer's lead arm (left arm in the case of a right-handed golfer). The upper arm and forearm braces are oriented so that the pivot is axially in line with the golfer's elbow. Thus, if the pivot is locked, the golfer cannot bend his or her lead arm at the elbow, but if the pivot is not locked, the golfer is able to freely bend his or her lead arm at the elbow. The pivot is selectively lockable, with selective locking of the pivot being accomplished by movement of a stop pin with respect to an abutment, where the stop pin is connected with the forearm brace and the abutment is connected with the upper arm brace. A sensor and actuator cooperate to move the stop pin at an appropriate juncture so that the golfer may simulate a "professional" swing in which the elbow cannot bend until the ball has been addressed, and is then able to freely bend thereafter.

摘要： A method and apparatus is disclosed for controlling actuation of an air bag restraint system. The apparatus includes a sensor securable to the vehicle for providing a vibratory electric signal having various frequency components indicative of whether the vehicle is in a deployment condition. The particular frequency components indicative of an deployment condition are not present when the vehicle is in a non-deployment condition. A filter circuit is connected to the sensor for providing an electric signal having a value indicative of the value of the particular frequency components. An integrator provides a signal having a value indicative of the value of the vibratory electric signal. A summing circuit sums the value of the signal from the integrator and from the filter circuit. A signal generator provides the actuation signal when the signal from the summing circuit exceeds a predetermined value.

摘要： A method for sensing the occurrence of a vehicle crash is provided for a vehicle having an occupant restraint system operatively connected with a crash sensor having an accelerometer, which produces an accelerometer signal, and with an occupant position sensor which produces a position signal. The crash sensor includes an adjustable filter. The method includes the steps of: a) calculating an estimated occupant displacement by integrating the accelerometer signal twice; b) comparing the estimated occupant displacement to the position signal; and c) adjusting the adjustable filter based upon the comparing step to optimize control of the occupant restraint system. In this manner, actual body position of the occupant may be more accurately predicted and measured, which allows optimization of air bag deployment.
