PHOTOELECTRIC ACCELERATOR SENSOR Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G01P15/93 

FIELD: instrument engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of instrument engineering and measurement equipment and can be used to fabricate sensors that operate on the principle of moving inertial mass when the value of acceleration of moving objects changes. Photoelectric sensor of accelerations contains a body, a spherical inertial body, a light source, a photodetector. Body is made of a spherical design with a soft inner dark gasket and channels for light, with inserted photodetectors located on the axes of the aircraft system, and has a flat base with holes for fastening, in the center of which there are diode light sources, the light from which goes to the photodetectors and is then transmitted to the amplifier, time interval generator, analog-to-digital converter and on-board computer. Inside the body there is a spherical inertial body inserted, fixed by a spring element to the body.

EFFECT: reduction of sensor dimensions, simplification of design, increase of operational reliability under conditions of shock loads.
