Safety system for a motor vehicle door, comprising at least two sensors
First Claim
1. Safety system (10) for a motor vehicle door (2) of a motor vehicle (1), with an electronic unit (15), which comprises at least one first (11) and one second sensor (12), wherein each sensor (11, 12) comprises an own monitoring zone (13, 14) at the motor vehicle door (2), a lock (3) assembled at the motor vehicle door (2), that can be brought between a locking position and an unlocking position, and a user-held identifier (5), which can be brought in data communication with a vehicle-related transceiver unit (18) for authentication purpose (8), wherein the electronic unit (15) is shaped in a way that via at least a defined movement pattern (9) of the user (4) within each of the monitoring zones (13, 14) a trigger signal (6) can be generated by the electronic unit (15), wherein a change of positions of the lock (3) is possible, wherein based on a positive authentication, both sensors (11, 12) are switched on in order to effectively sense the movement pattern (9), wherein the electronic unit (15) comprises an evaluation unit (17) which in dependence of the movement pattern, which sensed by the first (11) and the second sensor (12), generates different trigger signals (6) for vehicle-related actions (7), and wherein at least one sensor (11, 12) can be switched ineffective by the evaluation unit (17).

Abstract
The invention relates to a safety system for a door in a motor vehicle, comprising an electronic unit that includes at least one first and a second sensor. Each sensor has its own monitoring zone on the motor vehicle door. The safety system further comprises a lock which is arranged on the motor vehicle door and can be switched between a locked position and an unlocked position, as well as a user-held identifier which can be brought into data communication with a transceiver unit in the motor vehicle for authentication purposes. The electronic unit is designed in such a way as to be able to generate a trigger signal by having the user execute at least one defined movement pattern within the monitoring zones, thus allowing the position of the lock to be switched.
