Definitions
- the present invention relates to an acceleration sensor, and more particularly, to an acceleration sensor, for example, which is attached to an inclined member such as a seatback of a vehicle, and is influenced by the inclination of the inclined member.
- the present invention relates to an acceleration sensor that detects the acceleration of a vehicle without receiving it. 2. Description of the Related Art
- a sensor pole having a fixed mass is mounted on a support surface of a support such as a bracket, and the sensor pole (moving body) is accelerated at a predetermined acceleration or more.
- the sensor pole drives the output member due to inertial movement, and detects acceleration.
- the bracket is rotatably supported around an axis parallel to the center of rotation of the seat knock, and a weight is mounted below this axis to reduce the weight of the weight.
- a so-called weight-following type acceleration sensor has been proposed that always maintains the bracket support surface at a predetermined angle regardless of the lining angle.
- the seatback is tilted. When the vehicle inclines, the operation is the same as when the entire vehicle inclines. For this reason, if the acceleration sensor does not operate even when the seat back tilts greatly, the acceleration sensor does not operate even when the entire vehicle tilts greatly. (The so-called static lock angle increases).
- a part of the vehicle seat and the bracket are connected by a connecting member such as a wire, and when the seat back is inclined, the connecting member causes the seat back to incline.
- a so-called interlocking tracking type acceleration sensor has been proposed in which a bracket is forcibly rotated to maintain a support surface of the bracket at a predetermined angle.
- this interlocking tracking type acceleration sensor slight deformation of the connecting member (for example, twisting of the wire when a wire is used as the connecting member) or connecting member Due to slight attachment of the bracket to the seat, the bracket's forced rotation angle will fluctuate, and the bracket's support surface cannot be maintained at the specified angle. It will be.
- the present invention can always maintain the support at a predetermined angle even when the inclined member inclines, and furthermore, has an acceleration with a small static lock angle.
- the task is to obtain a sensor.
- DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION According to the invention described in claim 1, the support is attached to the tiltable tilt member and is rotatable at least around an axis parallel to the tilt center of the tilt member.
- a movable body that is supported by the support body and moves by inertia at an acceleration of a predetermined value or more acting on the support body to drive the output member; and a predetermined weight of the support body with respect to a horizontal plane due to its own weight.
- the support When the inclined member is inclined, the support receives the rotation moment from the mass body and tries to rotate in a direction at a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal plane. Since the rotating member rotates in response to the inclination, the support body has a predetermined angle. In this state, when an acceleration greater than or equal to a predetermined value acts on the support, the moving body moves by inertia to drive the output member, and the acceleration is detected. Since the rotation of the support independent of the rotating member is set within a certain range by the rotating member, when the acceleration exceeding a predetermined value occurs or the entire vehicle leans. Only when the acceleration sensor acts and only the inclined member is inclined, the acceleration sensor does not act and the so-called static lock angle can be reduced.
- the rotating member allows the support to rotate within a certain range independently of the rotating member by receiving a rotating moment from the mass body. For this reason, for example, even if the amount of follow-up movement of the rotating member with respect to the inclined member is varied due to the attachment of the support to the inclined member, deformation of the rotating member, etc. Is rotated in a direction at a predetermined angle by a rotation moment received from the mass body. As a result, the variation in the follow-up movement amount of the rotating member is corrected, and the support becomes a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal plane.
- the rotating member is rotatable coaxially with the support member, and rotates by a predetermined angle corresponding to an inclination angle of the inclined member.
- a wheel, a first contact member protruding from the wheel toward the support, and a first contact member protruding from the support toward the wheel. Configure a predetermined clearance between the connector and the connector, and within this clearance And a second abutting member for enabling the support member to rotate independently of the rotating member.
- the wheel rotates by a predetermined angle in accordance with the inclination angle.
- the first abutment of the wheel follows the second abutment of the support that is about to rotate at the moment of rotation from the mass body. Therefore, the rotation of the support is allowed, and the support is at a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal plane.
- the follow-up angle of the first abutment when the inclined member is inclined is determined. Even if there is a variation, the support rotates in response to the rotational moment of the mass body within the clearance, and becomes a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal plane.

- the sensor ball 48 which has inertially moved on the support surface 46 reaches the upper portion of the support surface 46, and the plate plate 62 is moved. Press upward.
- the sensor lever 56 rotates, and the operation protrusion 64 pushes the receiving surface 78 of the pawl 66 upward.
- the pawl 66 rotates in the counterclockwise direction (arrow B direction) in FIG.
- the locking claw 80 engages with the ratchet teeth 24, so that rotation of the spool in the pullout direction of the webbing 20 is prevented.
- the bracket 40 will be weighed. It rotates about the axis J under its own weight, and attempts to rotate in the direction in which the center line C of the bracket 40 coincides with the vertical line G.
- the wheel 130 is inclined in the pitching direction integrally with the vehicle body. Therefore, the limit axis 1 3 8
- One of the clearances 198 formed between the side wall 13 A of the projection 13 and the side wall 13 A is eliminated (the other clearance 198 is widened).
- the limiting shaft 1338 is pushed by the side wall 1336A of the limiting protrusion 1336, and the bracket 40 is inclined with respect to the vehicle body.
- the sensor ball 48 moves on the support surface 46 and pushes the plate 62 upward.
- the sensor lever 56 and the pawl 66 rotate, and the locking claw 80 engages with the ratchet teeth 24.
- the face wheel 130 rotates around the axis J due to the engagement between the small gear 144 and the arc gear 140. Since the rotation angle of the face wheel 130 is adjusted to be equal to the inclination angle of the seat back 12, as shown in FIG. The center line C 1 of the face wheel 130 always coincides with the vertical line G irrespective of the inclination angle of the seat back 12.
- the bracket 40 has a state in which the limit shaft 138 is located at the center of the side wall 1336A of the limit protrusion 1336. While maintaining it, the seat 11 is rotated by its own weight relative to the seat rail 12 (however, considering the bracket 40 itself, the vertical line G , The center line C of the bracket 40 is maintained in the vertical direction.
- the torsion of the wire 152, the meshing error between the crown gear 196 and the drive gear 180, and the mounting gear of the face wheel 130 may be a gap between the inclination angle of the seat back 12 and the rotation angle of the face wheel 130.
- a predetermined clearance 198 is formed between the restriction shaft 1338 and the side wall 1336A of the restriction projection 1336, the clearance 1 9 Only rotation of bracket 40 within the range is allowed. That is, as shown in FIG.
- the bracket 40 causes the bracket 40 to have a weight due to the weight of the weight 118, and Since it rotates within a fixed range (in this embodiment, within a range of a rotation angle of 2 °) independently of the wheel 130, the inclination angle of the seat knock 12 and the face wheel Even if there is a deviation from the rotation angle of 130, the center line C of the bracket 40 always coincides with the vertical line G.
- the bracket 40 swings around the axis J by the weight of the weight 118.
- the bracket 40 swings and the limiting shaft 13 Limited by hitting side wall 13 A.
- the limiting protrusion 1336 is formed on the face wheel 130 as the first contacting member, and the limiting shaft 1 is formed as the second contacting member.
- the first abutment and the second abutment are not limited to these.
- the bracket 40 has the weight of the weight 118. Any member may be used as long as it can form a predetermined clearance that can rotate independently of the wheel 130.
- restriction protrusion 1336 and the restriction shaft 1338 are respectively replaced, and the restriction shaft 1338 is formed on the face wheel 130 as a first contact body, and 2
- the limiting projections 13 6 may be formed on the bracket 40 as abutting bodies.
- the shapes of the first contact body and the second contact body are not limited to those described above.
- the moving body is not limited to the sensor ball 48 described above, but performs an inertial movement at an acceleration of a predetermined value or more acting on the bracket 40 and outputs the output member (in this embodiment, the sensor). It only needs to drive the sensor lever 5 6).
- the center axis is set to be in a direction orthogonal to the vehicle front-rear direction (ie, the inertial movement can be performed only in the vehicle front-rear direction).
- Supported cylindrical member or acceleration above a specified value It may be a member whose center of gravity moves by inertia and falls on the support surface 46.
- the output member may be driven by inertial movement with acceleration exceeding the theorem.
- the material of the moving body is not limited to metal, and may be a general material such as a synthetic resin having a constant mass.
- the sensor pole 48 that has inertially moved on the support surface 46 directly pushes the pawl 66 up and rotates it, and the locking pawl 80 moves the ratchet wheel 22 ratchet teeth.
- a configuration is also possible in which the sensor lever 56 is omitted so as to engage with 24.
- the acceleration sensor 10 is attached to the retractor 14 and the retractor 14
- the case where the acceleration sensor 10 is used has been described as an example, but it goes without saying that the location and member where the acceleration sensor 10 is used are not limited to this.
