Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005098384A1] The invention relates to a device for detecting collision with a vehicle (5). Said device comprises a pressure sensor (3) for detecting compression of a substantially closed measuring volume (2) upon collision. Said measuring volume is arranged along a part of the vehicle body that is impacted during collision. The cross-sectional area (2A, 2B, 2C) of the measuring volume (2), along its longitudinal direction, has a comparatively larger area in the vicinity of those parts of the vehicle body that are comparatively rigid and therefore comparatively difficult to deform during collision.
