  • the filling member 52 is a member having flexibility that is softer than the bumper absorber 2 and the tube member 3 for detection. According to this configuration, since the filling member 52 is made of a material softer than the bumper absorber 2 and the detection tube member 3, the gap formed on the front side and the rear side of the detection tube member 3 in the groove 2a is filled. Even if the member 52 is disposed, the deformation of the bumper absorber 2 and the detection tube member 3 at the time of a collision is not adversely affected. Thereby, the collision detection accuracy of the vehicle collision detection apparatus 1 can be improved with certainty.
  • the filling member 52 is disposed so as to cover the entire outer peripheral portion of the detection tube member 3 .
  • the present invention is not limited to this, and the filling member 52 is a detection tube. What is necessary is just to be arrange

Abstract

　L'invention porte sur un dispositif de détection de collision (1) pour un véhicule, lequel dispositif comporte : un absorbeur de pare-chocs (2), qui est un élément d'absorption d'impact installé dans un pare-chocs (7) du véhicule ; un élément de tube de détection (3) disposé dans une partie de rainure (2a) formée sur l'absorbeur de pare-chocs (2) le long de la direction de la largeur du véhicule, un élément de tube de détection (3) ayant une partie creuse (3a) formée à l'intérieur, et installé sur le côté avant de véhicule d'un renfort de pare-chocs (9) ; un capteur de pression (4) pour détecter la pression dans la partie creuse (3a) de l'élément de tube de détection (3) ; et une unité de commande électronique de détection de collision (6) pour détecter une collision d'un objet avec le pare-chocs (20) sur la base du résultat de la détection de pression par le capteur de pression (4). Le dispositif de détection de collision (1) pour un véhicule comporte un élément de rembourrage (5, 51, 52) rembourrant un espace formé sur le côté avant et/ou le côté arrière de véhicule de l'élément de tube de détection (3) dans la partie de rainure (2a).
