monitoring control system 6; section status monitoring part 7;
total current computation part 8; and control part 9. The
Figure 1 embodiment of Kanazawa's invention operates as
follows: the control part 9 compares the electric current
value detected by the current detector part 4 with the
electric current value computed by the total current
computation part 8 and outputs a control voltage to the
silicon control rectifier 5 when a power problem is detected.
When a control voltage is impressed on the silicon control
rectifier 5, the silicon control rectifier 5 becomes
conductive, letting a high current be transmitted to the fuse-
link 2 causing the fuse-link 2 to melt and thus stopping the
supplying of power to each load device to thereby assure
vehicle safety.
Balban's invention relates to a vehicle safety system and
more particularly relates to a fused multiple stage inflation
system for passive passenger restraints. The safety system of
Balban includes deceleration sensors 59 and 62 which are
initially open and remain so during normal operation of the
