Sensor arrangement for detecting impact on e.g. passenger car, has acceleration units measuring accelerations with respect to respective axes of vehicle, where acceleration and pressure units are integrated within vehicle door

摘要

The arrangement has a pressure unit (7), and two acceleration units (8, 9) for measuring accelerations with respect to respective axes of a vehicle. One of the axes of the vehicle is variably aligned with the other axis of the vehicle. The pressure unit and the two acceleration units are integrated within a vehicle door. The two axes of the vehicle are aligned and offset to each other about 90 degrees, where one of the axes runs parallel to a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis of the vehicle and/or diagonal to the longitudinal axis and the transverse axis. An independent claim is also included for a method for actuating a supporting device of a vehicle in case of an impact.
