Abstract
Vorrichtung zur Sitzbelegungserkennung in einem Kraftfahrzeug, umfassend mindestens einen zu einem Fahrzeugsitz justierten Sensor, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Sensor (5) in einen Dachhaltegriff (1) integriert ist.contraption for seat occupancy detection in a motor vehicle, comprising at least a sensor adjusted to a vehicle seat, characterized that the Sensor (5) in a roof grab handle (1) is integrated.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Sitzbelegungserkennung in einem Kraftfahrzeug.The The invention relates to a device for seat occupancy recognition in a motor vehicle.
Aus vielerlei Gründen ist die Kenntnis, ob ein Fahrzeugsitz belegt ist, von Interesse. Ist z. B. ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einem Beifahrer-Airbag ausgerüstet, so soll dieser auch nur ausgelöst werden, wenn der Beifahrersitz wirklich belegt ist, da eine Instandsetzung des ausgelösten Airbags sehr kostspielig ist. Des weiteren kann eine Klimaanlage bzw. ein Gebläse entsprechend anders ausgerichtet werden, je nachdem ob der Beifahrersitz belegt ist oder nicht. Da weiter in Abhängigkeit von der Art der Sitzbelegung die Ansteuerung des Airbags erfolgen sollte, um Verletzungen bei der Auslösung auszuschließen, ist man dazu übergegangen, die ungenauen mechanischen Detektoren durch geeignetere zu ersetzen.Out many reasons is the knowledge of whether a vehicle seat is occupied, of interest. Is z. B. a motor vehicle equipped with a passenger airbag, so this should only be triggered if the passenger seat is really occupied, as a repair of the triggered Airbags is very expensive. Furthermore, an air conditioner or a blower be aligned accordingly, depending on whether the passenger seat is occupied or not. As further depending on the type of seat occupancy The activation of the airbag should be done to avoid injury the trigger to exclude is you went over to it, replace the inaccurate mechanical detectors with more appropriate ones.

Der Erfindung liegt daher das technische Problem zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zur Sitzbelegungserkennung mit mindestens einem Sensor im Dachhimmelbereich zu schalten, bei der keine Nachbearbeitung des Dachhimmels notwendig und die Justierung vereinfacht ist.Of the The invention is therefore based on the technical problem of a device for seat occupancy recognition with at least one sensor in the headliner area to switch, in which no post-processing of the headliner necessary and the adjustment is simplified.
Die Lösung des technischen Problems ergibt sich durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1. Durch die Integration des Sensors im Dachhaltegriff muß der Sensor nicht separat eingebaut und justiert werden, so daß die Justierung automatisch mit der Befestigung des Dachhaltegriffes erfolgt. Dadurch erübrigt sich auch eine mechanische Nachbearbeitung des Dachhimmels. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, daß eine gegebenenfalls notwendige Verkabelung für Betriebsspannungen und/oder Signalleitungen durch die für den Dachhaltegriff vorgesehenen Öffnungen geführt werden kann. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.The solution The technical problem results from the features of the claim 1. Due to the integration of the sensor in the roof grab handle the sensor not separately installed and adjusted, so that the adjustment automatically with the attachment of the roof grab handle. Thereby Needless also a mechanical post-processing of the headliner. One Another advantage is that an optionally necessary wiring for Operating voltages and / or signal lines through the for the roof grab handle provided openings are guided can. Further advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the dependent claims.
