ABSTRACT:
An impact sensor for a vehicle crash restraint system features mounting thereof in a region behind the vehicle bumper area which first experiences the effect of a crash and the utilization of both the energy of an over-center spring and the inertial force of a decelerating mass for the generation of energy in a firing pin to initiate an explosive primer thereby to provide a faster reaction to a crash, which reaction is rapidly transmitted by a pyrotechnic transmission line to an inflator located in the vehicle passenger compartment for inflating an inflatable crash bag.
