Abstract
The present invention relates to a coupling-releasing device for airbag actuator cable 1 for vehicles having two or more wheels, said airbag being contained in a wearable jacket or coat. The coupling-releasing device of an airbag actuator cable 1 according to the present invention comprises at least one coupling unit 2,2′ adapted to be installed on board a vehicle and actuator means 4,4′,4″ operatively connected to said at least one coupling unit 2,2′ to operate said coupling unit 2,2′ between a first closing configuration adapted to retain said end of said airbag actuator cable and a second opening configuration adapted to release said end of said airbag actuator cable.
Claims11
A coupling-releasing device for an airbag actuator cable for a vehicle with two or more wheels, comprising:
- at least one coupling unit adapted to be installed on board of the vehicle, said at least one coupling unit being operable between a closed configuration for retaining an end of the airbag actuator cable and an open configuration for releasing said end of the airbag actuator cable,
- at least one electric actuator connected to said at least one coupling unit to operate said at least one coupling unit between said closed configuration and said open configuration, and
- at least one micro switch which is adapted to detect a position of parking means of the vehicle and is configured to send an electric signal to said at least one electric actuator to operate said at least one coupling unit from said closed configuration to said open configuration when a parked condition of the vehicle is established based on the position of said parking means.
