Occupant determining device
First Claim
1. An occupant determining device, comprising:
- a load detecting sensor provided on a seat body; and
a controller calculating a detected load value based on an output value of the load detecting sensor and performing occupant determination based on the detected load value, wherein the occupant determination state is switched to an adult determination state when a certain delaying time elapses after the detected load value exceeds a first determination threshold, wherein the controller sets the delaying time shorter when the detected load value exceeds the first determination threshold within a predetermined time after the detected load value exceeds a second determination threshold.

Abstract
An occupant determining device includes a load detecting sensor provided on a seat body and a controller. The controller calculates a detected load value based on an output value of the load detecting sensor and performs occupant determination based on the detected load value. The occupant determination state is switched to an adult determination state when a certain delaying time elapses after the detected load value exceeds a first determination threshold. The controller sets the delaying time shorter when the detected load value exceeds the first determination threshold within a predetermined time after the detected load value exceeds a second determination threshold.
