Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005123464A1] A sensor for detecting the firing of a vehicle airbag is engageable around an insulated conductor of a crash test vehicle and comprises a ferrite structure disposed in a housing, a Hall-effect device having output terminals and being magnetically coupled with the ferrite structure, the housing and the ferrite structure defining a through hole for the conductor and being connected at a hinge location to allow portions thereof distal to the hinge location to be separated to allow the conductor to be introduced into the through hole, a securing device operable to secure the distal portions together to maintain the housing closed about the conductor, and a screened wire connected to terminals of the Hall-effect device for feeding a signal from the Hall-effect device to remote conditioning circuitry.
