    Patent number: 4943010
    Abstract: An acceleration sensor for detecting acceleration of at least predetermined magnitude. The sensor has a first lever capable of swinging when acceleration of at least predetermined magnitude occurs, and a second lever capable of swinging to come into contact with the first lever when vertical acceleration of at least predetermined magnitude occurs so as to limit the swinging of the first lever. Therefore, the first lever is prevented from swinging when vertical acceleration of at least predetermined magnitude occurs.
