ABSTRACT:
A control device actuates at least one fuel flow control device in the event of a vehicle crash or roll over. The control device has a sensor stage to sense a plurality of parameters including acceleration, pitch angle and roll angle of a vehicle. A corresponding plurality of signals are generated representing each such parameter. The control device has a control stage including circuitry to receive the plurality of signals and to generate a control signal corresponding to each such parameter when the corresponding signal exceeds a predetermined value. A safety device actuator has circuitry to receive the control signals and to generate a corresponding actuator signal to actuate a fuel flow control device.
