ABSTRACT:
A gas damped deceleration sensor for a vehicle includes a flat spring which is coaxially connected to a mass and which resists movement of the mass in response to deceleration. A preload ring is axially movable against symmetrically located surface areas of the spring to adjust the force of the spring evenly. A second flat spring is connected to the mass at a position axially spaced from the first flat spring to stabilize the mass against deceleration forces acting in directions transverse to the axis.
