PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pedestrian collision determination device which can prevent the erroneous determination of a collision of an obstacle other than a pedestrian as a collision of the pedestrian while surely determining the collision of the pedestrian to left and right end parts at a vehicle front end as the collision of the pedestrian.SOLUTION: A pedestrian collision determination device comprises load detection means which detects a load generated by a collision of an obstacle to a vehicle front end, and collision determination means which determines that the obstacle is a pedestrian when the load is included within a prescribed load range. The pedestrian collision determination device also comprises obstacle detection means which detects obstacles at a right-end front part and a left-end front part of a vehicle. When the obstacles are detected in the right-end front part or the left-end front part of the vehicle, and in a position not further than a prescribed distance from the vehicle by the obstacle detection means, the collision determination means enlarges the prescribed load range by lowering the lower limit and determines whether or not the obstacle is the pedestrian.

    【課題】車両前端の左右端部への歩行者の衝突を確実に歩行者の衝突として判定しつつ、歩行者以外の障害物の衝突を歩行者の衝突として誤判定することを防止することが可能な歩行者衝突判定装置を提供すること。【解決手段】車両前端への障害物の衝突による荷重を検出する荷重検出手段と、前記荷重が所定荷重範囲に含まれた場合に、前記障害物は歩行者であると判定する衝突判定手段とを備える歩行者衝突判定装置であって、前記車両の右端部前方、及び左端部前方の障害物を検出する障害物検出手段を備え、前記衝突判定手段は、前記障害物検出手段により、前記車両の右端部前方、又は左端部前方であって、前記車両から所定距離以下の位置に障害物が検出された場合、下限を下げることにより前記所定荷重範囲を拡大して、前記障害物が歩行者であるか否かを判定することを特徴とする。【選択図】図4
