AIRBAG SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. A non-contact type switch is built into the seat belt buckle switch.

    2. The non-contact type switch contains a Hall IC and magnet.

    3. The ejector inside the seat belt buckle switch and the plate installed to the ejector move when the seat belt is removed or inserted. The movement of the plate changes the magnetic flux density of the magnet.

    4. The Hall IC detects changes in the magnetic flux density. These changes indicate that the seat belt is either fastened or unfastened, and the Hall IC outputs a signal to the airbag ECU assembly.
