Abstract
The present disclosure provides a sensor unit that includes a mounting portion fixed on one side of the sensor unit; an elastic member including a first end and a second end, the first end being disposed on the mounting portion; a transmission portion configured to transmit a detectable signal, the transmission portion disposed on the second end of the elastic member; a reception portion configured to receive a reflection of the detectable signal; and a controller that determines whether the reflected signal indicates an impact, motion, or impending impact.
Claims17
A sensor unit, comprising:
- a mounting portion fixed on one side of the sensor unit;
- an elastic member including a first end and a second end, the first end being disposed on the mounting portion;
- a transmission portion configured to transmit a detectable signal, the transmission portion disposed on the second end of the elastic member;
- a reception portion configured to receive a reflection of the detectable signal;
- and
- a controller that determines whether the reflected signal indicates an impact, motion, or impending impact.
A sensor unit, comprising:
- a casing in which a space is formed therein;
- a mounting portion fixed on one side of the space inside the casing;
- an elastic member including a first end and a second end, the first end being disposed on the mounting portion;
- a transmission portion disposed on the second end of the elastic member and configured to transmit a detectable signal;
- a reflection body disposed on the other side of the space inside the casing relative to the mounting portion;
- a reception portion that is disposed inside the casing and configured to receive the detectable signal that is reflected from the reflection body;
- and
- a controller configured to determine whether the reflected signal indicates an impact, motion, or impending impact.
A sensor unit, comprising:
- a mounting portion fixed on one side;
- an elastic member of which one end thereof is fixed on the mounting portion;
- a transmission portion that is disposed at the other end of the elastic member to radiate a predetermined frequency length;
- a reception portion that receives the frequency length reflected from other random object;
- and
- a control portion that determines whether it is an abnormal condition according to the characteristics of the frequency length that is received by the reception portion.
