Abstract

Un accelerometro per un sistema di sicurezza a ritenuta per passeggeri in un autoveicolo, comprende un involucro con un percorso per un elemento inerziale, e una molla a spirale per sollecitare l'elemento inerziale verso una posizione prestabilita. Quando il veicolo decelera ad una velocità superiore ad una velocità prestabilita, la sfera si allontana dalla posizione prescelta e chiude un contatto elettrico.
