ABSTRACT:
An acceleration sensing device comprises a case, an inertial body supported on a base portion of the case, and an actuating pawl pivotably mounted on an upstanding wall portion of the case and having a first arm on one side of its pivot mounting engageable by the inertial body such that the inertial body can move by its inertia in any direction generally horizontally upon an acceleration of the case and upon so moving pivot the pawl to an active position. A blocking member is movably supported by the wall portion of the case at a location below the pivot mounting of the pawl. The blocking member has a hole, the edge of which is engageable by the inertial body upon its movement horizontally in any direction from the stable position so as to move the blocking member horizontally. The pawl has a second arm on the opposite side of the pivot mounting from the first arm, and the second arm of the pawl and the blocking member have protrusions that are engageable with each other when the blocking member is in a blocking position and upon engaging prevent the pawl from pivoting from its inactive position. The blocking member and the case have mutually engaging surfaces to move the blocking member to its blocking position and acting in conjunction with movement of the blocking member by the inertial body when the inertial body moves to its stable position from any other position on the base member.
