Vehicle safety device has pulse-triggering element feeding signal to controller interacting with transmission element in event of hazard; amplified signal is transmitted to receiver element

摘要

The device has transmission and reception elements (7,8) mounted near the steering column (3) so as to be movable with respect to each other. The pulse-triggering element (2) feeds a signal to a controller (13) that interacts with the transmission element (7) in the event of a hazard. The amplified signal is transmitted without contact to the receiver element (8) and finally to the ignition device (4).
