摘要： An occupant-classifying system includes a load-detecting device assembled at a vehicle seat for detecting a load value imposed on the vehicle seat and for outputting the load value, and a controller for determining whether the vehicle seat is in an occupied state, or in an unoccupied state on a basis of the load value outputted from the load-detecting device. A seat occupied state is classified into plural modes defined on a basis of plural threshold load values. The controller is configured to determine the seat occupied state when the load value falls within a specific mode among the plural modes and lasts for a predetermined time duration defined for each specific mode. The controller changes one of the threshold load values which define a boundary between the selected mode and another, neighboring mode, whether occupied mode or unoccupied mode.

摘要： An occupant judging device for a vehicle seat includes a load sensor provided in the vehicle seat and a controller for calculating a detected load value based on an output load value from the load sensor and determining an occupant on the vehicle seat by comparing the detected load value and a predetermined threshold value. The controller judges by a decrease state of the detected load value detected after the seatbelt is fastened being maintained for a first predetermined time that a child restraint device is installed, when a state in which the seatbelt is fastened and the door is opened is detected. Further, the controller judges by a decrease state of the detected load value detected after the seatbelt is fastened being maintained for a second predetermined time that the child restraint device is installed, when a state in which the seatbelt is fastened and the door is closed is detected.

摘要： An occupant determining device includes a load detecting sensor provided on a seat body and a controller. The controller calculates a detected load value based on an output value of the load detecting sensor and performs occupant determination based on the detected load value. The occupant determination state is switched to an adult determination state when a certain delaying time elapses after the detected load value exceeds a first determination threshold. The controller sets the delaying time shorter when the detected load value exceeds the first determination threshold within a predetermined time after the detected load value exceeds a second determination threshold.
