First Claim
Patent Images
1. An impact sensor comprising a main part having a cavity formed therein, a fracture part made up of at least one side surface of said cavity;
- an impact force transfer member provided at said cavity;
a weight confined in said cavity; and
a seal member closing the cavity with the weight confined therein, characterized in that said fracture part is apt to be broken up when an impact has been encountered.

Abstract
To attain an impact sensor designed compact and to be readily assembled.
The impact sensor comprises main part 100 of sensor involving cavity 110, of which bottom surface serves as the fracture part 120; impact force transfer member 130 provided on said fracture part 120; weight 200 being confined in said cavity 110; and seal member 300 to close the cavity 110 with the weight 200 left confined therein, whereby the fracture part 120 is apt to be broken up by the weight 200, when an impact exceeding the predetermined value has been encountered.

4. An impact-pressure sensor comprising a main part defining a hollow which is isolated from the outside environment, a fracture part made up of at least one side surface of said hollow;
- an impact force transfer member provided at said fracture part;
a seal member secured to said main part of the sensor;
said main part having a predetermined space in a location apart from said fracture part, and a weight confined within said space, said seal member being equipped with a passage that links up said space and the outside environment, whereby the fracture part is apt to be broken up when an impact exceeding a predetermined level has been encountered or when a pressure difference between inside of said hollow and the outside environment has exceeded a predetermined value. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)
