Title:
SENSOR ARRANGEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001055729
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A sensor arrangement (1; 20; 30; 40) is disclosed, for detection of forces, which might lead to a deformation of components, for example chassis components (10), in particular, on a motor vehicle, as a result of an accident. The sensor arrangement (1; 20; 30; 40) comprises a number of contact elements (2, 3, 4; 21, 22, 23; 31, 32, 33), which are staggered behind each other on the component (1), in a possible direction of deformation, with compressible insulation layers (5, 6, 7; 24, 25; 35, 36) lying between the contact elements (2, 3, 4; 21, 22, 23; 31, 32, 33). The contact elements (2, 3, 4; 21, 22, 23; 31, 32, 33) are connected in an electrically conducting manner to an electronic analytical unit, by means of which a breaking or a coming into contact of neighbouring contact elements (2, 3, 4; 21, 22, 23; 31, 32, 33) as a result of a deformation may be recorded, but may not be converted to a control and/or regulatory signal.
