Activation control device for airbag device
First Claim
1. An activation control device for an airbag device comprising:
- at least one impact detection section disposed at a predetermined position of a vehicle, which detects a degree of shock applied to the vehicle; and
a main control section connected to the impact detection section by communication, which determines a collision state based on an output signal of the impact detection section received from the impact detection section, and controls activation of the airbag device installed in the vehicle;
wherein the impact detection section comprises;
a threshold storage section for storing threshold data relating to a detected degree of shock;
a storage control section which receives the threshold data from the main control section and stores the threshold data in the threshold storage section; and
a transmission control section which controls transmission of an output signal to the main control section based on threshold data stored in the threshold storage section; and
the main control section comprises;
a threshold storage memory section which stores predetermined threshold data corresponding to each impact detection section disposed in the vehicle; and
a setting control section which transmits the threshold data stored in the threshold storage memory section to the corresponding impact detection section.

Abstract
An activation control device for an airbag device decreases the management costs by generalization of satellite sensors. There is provided at least one impact detection section disposed at a predetermined position of a vehicle, which detects a degree of shock applied to the vehicle; and a main control section connected to the impact detection section by communication, which determines a collision state based on an output signal of the impact detection section received from the impact detection section, and controls activation of the airbag device installed in the vehicle. The impact detection section receives and stores threshold data relating to a detected degree of shock, from the main control section, and controls transmission of an output signal to the main control section based on the stored threshold data. The main control section stores predetermined threshold data corresponding to each impact detection section disposed in the vehicle; and transmits the stored threshold data to the corresponding impact detection section.
